Setting up the document shredder:
1. Please first insert the collecting tray (for CDs/DVDs) in the waste basket.
2. Securely mount the document shredder on the waste basket. In the process, ensure
that you do not catch your fingers between the top edge of the waste basket and the
shredder.
Important note:
The document shredder can only be set on one side of the basket. Ensure that the
document shredder is properly fitted onto the basket.
3. Connect the mains plug to a standard 220-240 volt AC socket.
Starting the document shredder:
The sliding switch is located on the top side of the unit and can be set to three (3) positions.
1. AUTO position: the shredding operation starts automatically as soon as the paper to be
shredded is inserted in the feed slot. After the shredding operation is complete, the device
will automatically deactivate.
2. REV features the following two functions:
a) Rectifying a paper jam. In this case, the direction of the shredding operation is reversed
before the work cycle ends in order to free the shredding blades. Should you determine
that too much paper has been inserted and the shredding operation slows noticeably,
immediately set the switch to this position, also in the event paper is accidentally
inserted.
b) Shredding CDs/DVDs and credit cards: Insert an individual CD/DVD or credit card in
the designated feed slot on the shredder.
3. In order to empty the waste basket or in the event the device is not used for a prolonged
period of time, the switch should be set to OFF and the device should be disconnected
from the electrical line.
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.

Capacity of the document shredder:
The C116-A shreds up to 7 sheets of paper (DIN A4, 70g). The paper width may comprise up
to 22 cm. When shredding small paper sizes such as letters or credit card receipts, please
insert them into the middle of the shredding slot.
Separate shredder for CD’s and credit cards:
This document shredder is equipped with a separate shredder for CDs/DVDs and credit cards.
CDs/DVDs are shredded into 4 pieces. Given that such materials always present the risk of
splinters, please keep your face at an acceptable distance when inserting CDs/DVDs. The
shredded material is then collected in a separate tray thereby facilitating its environmentally-
friendly disposal.
Protection against paper jams and overloading:
The C116-A is equipped with a motor overload guard. The normal work cycle for the shredding
operation takes 2 minutes with a maximum load, after which a prolonged break must be taken.
Under the following conditions, the current feed to the unit’s motor is interrupted:
1. Continual operation of the document shredder with maximum capacity for a prolonged
period of time, e.g. longer than 2 minutes without interruption.
2. Overrunning the shredding capacity e.g. adding more than 7 sheets of paper (70g) in one
operation or in the event the paper is not inserted length-wise into the feed slot.
Under the above-mentioned conditions, the automatic overload guard of the motor is triggered,
whereupon the current feed to the device is interrupted. In such a case, please take the
following steps:
1. Disconnect the mains plug from the AC socket and wait at least 60 minutes until the
overload guard has reset. Now tear off excess paper from the top of the shredder or
remove it.
2. Reconnect the mains plug to the AC socket and set the switch to the REV position. Pull
the remaining paper away from the shredding blades. Afterwards, set the switch back to
the AUTO position. If necessary, repeat this step.
3. With the switch in the AUTO position and the open feed slot, you may now continue the
normal shredding process.
