OPERATION

Paper / Credit Card Entry:
ShredSafe™ technology is an added safety feature incorporated in this particular
model. It is a new technology where the shredder is able to detect forced entry and
automatically cuts the power off, preventing further shredding.
To begin shredding, locate the control switch on the unit and select the "Auto" mode. The Green LED
light indicates the shredder is "On" and ready to use. Press the designated "PUSH OPEN" area on the
handle of the cover to open and expose the paper feed slot (FIGURE 3). The cover will click into
a preset position where the "SHREDDER STATUS" line must align with the "READY"
setting.
READY:

The shredder is currently on STANDBY and ready to operate when paper is inserted.
With the feed slot now exposed, you can shred sheets of paper or 1 credit card per pass.
DISABLED:

The safety feature has been activated. All power to the SHREDDER
IS CURRENTLY SHUT OFF AND WILL NOT OPERATE until the cover
is returned to the "READY" setting. The cover has been opened
beyond the safe position (FIGURE 4).

 AFTER USE:
When shredding is completed, you can press the designated
"PUSH CLOSE" area on the cover to tilt shut the paper feed slot
(FIGURE 5). It is recommended to have the paper feed slot closed
when shredder is not in use to prevent any objects from accidentally
getting into the feed slot.

and overheating, the unit will automatically shut off. If this happens, switch the shredder Off for 30
minutes or longer before resuming normal operation.
