[. . . ] · Keep loose objects (jewelry, ties, long hair) away from shredder. These items and others like them may cause serious injury if they accidentally fall into the paper entry. PARTS OF THE SHREDDER A C D ® E B · Model FS5 is not supplied with a basket. When selecting a basket, make certain the basket provides a stable base for the shredder. · Do not shred plastic, continuous forms, adhesive labels, transparencies, newsprint, or cardboard. [. . . ] Remove any paper clips or other foreign objects (except staples) from paper. If folding paper to fit paper entry, adjust sheet capacity appropriately. Do not attempt to shred paper clips or other hard materials (except staples) with this machine. Extensive use of paper clips or other hard materials will result in damage to the cutting system and will void the manufacturer's warranty. As soon as the unit is turned on and in standby mode, the shredder is ready to be fed paper through the paper entry. NEVER insert hands or fingers into paper entry as serious personal injury may result. Do not exceed recommended sheet capacity (see "Product Usage Guide" on page 1). Slide paper straight into paper entry until the shredder automatically begins shredding. Continue shredding as desired to a MAXIMUM shredding time of 3-5 minutes. At this time, the machine MUST be allowed to "cool down" for a MINIMUM of 15 minutes. (See "CoolDown Cycle" section for more information. ) If the shredder jams or shuts off before the maximum shredding time, see "Clearing a Jam" section for further instructions. 6. Replace shredder head into position on basket. Cool-Down Cycle This shredder is protected with a special safety feature which prevents the motor from overheating with extensive use. When shredding is attempted beyond the machine's maximum running time, the shredder will automatically shut off its motor until it has cooled to an acceptable operating level. This is normal and the shredder will return to operation after the "cool-down" period. See "Product Usage Guide" (page 1) for maximum running time and related cooling or "off" time. Clearing a Jam If the shredder sheet capacity is exceeded or paper is not put in straight, a jam may result. See "Product Usage Guide" (page 1) for maximum sheet capacity for your shredder. In the case of a jam, the machine will "bog down" and fail to shred the paper. (If waste basket is full, empty it before clearing jam. ) The shredder will reverse the paper to clear the jam. If the shredder jams in reverse, move the power switch to AUTO (I) and allow to run for about five seconds. If jam does not clear, move power switch to REVERSE (R) again and allow to run for about five seconds.

This warranty does not apply in cases of abuse, mishandling or unauthorized repair. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY, INCLUDING THAT OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IS HEREBY LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE APPROPRIATE WARRANTY PERIOD SET FORTH ABOVE.
