Starting the document shredder:
Important note:
This device is designed solely for private use in enclosed quarters and for
brief operation not exceeding 2 minutes. Do not use the document
shredder for commercial applications nor outdoors. Improper use poses
risk of accidents.
The main switch has 3 positions. To start the device set the button into position
"AUTO".
1. AUTO (ready to operate, Standby): The device is ready to operate after setting
the sliding switch to "AUTO". The shredding process begins automatically
when the paper to be shredded is fed into the insertion slot.
The paper must be fed STRAIGHT into the insertion slot to prevent paper
jamming. After the paper has been shredded by the cutting mechanism, the
shredder switches off automatically and enters Standby mode. If the device
does not switch off automatically, check whether the waste bin is full or there
is still residual paper in the cutting mechanism.
Only insert paper into the designated feed slots!
2. REV (reverse operation): "REV" make the cutting unit turn backward. With
these function paper jams can be removed (please refer to chapter "Protection
against paper jams and overloading").
3. OFF position is recommended when emptying the wastebasket or when the
shredder is not in use for a prolonged period of time.
Capacity of the document shredder:
The GENIE 480 X shreds up to 6 sheets of paper (DIN A4, 80 g). The paper width
may comprise up to 21.8 cm. When shredding small paper sizes such as letters or
credit card receipts, please insert them into the middle of the shredding slot.
Please ensure that never more than the above-mentioned maximum quantity is
inserted in the shredder. Otherwise the device may sustain damage.
Protection against paper jams and overloading:
The GENIE 480 X is equipped with a motor overload guard. To protect the machine
well, we suggest the user to operate it in this way: work 2 minutes then rest 60
minutes. Under the following conditions, the current feed to the unit's motor is
interrupted:
 Continual operation of the document shredder with maximum capacity for a
prolonged period of time, e.g. longer than 2 minutes without interruption.
 Overrunning the shredding capacity e.g. adding more than 6 sheets of paper
(80 g) in one operation or in the event the paper is not inserted length-wise
into the feed slot.
