4. Modes and operation
4.1 Functions
Once you have followed the steps outlined in section 3,
the paper shredder is ready for use.
The following is a detailed description of the three
function buttons found on the front side of the device.
•
ON/OFF
The on/off button is used to put the paper shredder
in standby mode. When this is done, the green light
is
illuminated.
As soon as a sheet of paper is placed into the
appropriate slot, the device automatically begins to
shred it. When inserting a sheet of paper into the
device, make sure that it is inserted straight down.
As soon as the shredding process is complete, the
device is automatically reset to standby mode.
If the waste bin is taken out during shredding, the
device stops automatically for your safety.
If the on/off button is pressed again, the device is
switched out of standby mode and the green light
goes
out.
•
REV
You can press the REV button to run the cutting rollers
in a backwards direction.
This is particularly useful if there is a paper jam, as
it clears the rollers. If you notice that the paper being
inserted is slanted or that you have accidentally
inserted too much paper at once, press and hold
down this button until the jammed paper is released
back through the cutting slot.
• FWD
You can use this function to move paper shreds
caught between the rollers to the waste bin.
To do so, press the FWD button and let the rollers
keep running until all stray shreds are in the waste
bin.
Pressing the REV and FWD buttons one after the other
can also help clear a paper jam.
