5 Operation
WARNING
Before switching the machine on,
make sure that you observe all safety
instructions.
Switching on the shredder
• Only US-version: Set mains switch at rear of
paper shredder to „I".
• Check that no paper is in the paper feed slit.
• Press the on/off button.
The "Ready for operation" indicator lights up.
Shredding paper
• Feed the paper to the middle of the paper
slot. The light barrier starts the cutting unit
automatically. Therefore, with thin paper
strips, make sure the light barrier detects
them.
Note: Do not shred paper in the CD cutting
unit. This can cause damage.
3 seconds after the light barrier in the paper
feed opening is free again, the cutting unit is
switched off automatically and the shredder
switches to standby.
Destroying CDs, credit cards and fl oppy
disks
• Check whether your machine is certifi ed
for destroying these materials (see "Proper
use").
• For machines with a separate CD cutting unit
(optional), put the material in the feed slot of
this cutting unit. This protects you from splin-
ters. Otherwise, use the paper cutting unit.
Switching off the shredder
• Press the on/off button.
The "Ready for operation" indicator goes out.
• Only US-version: Set mains switch at rear
of paper shredder to „0".
