2 seconds and then reverse for 4 seconds to clear away any remaining paper from the cutter
mechanism. This unique 'self-cleaning' mechanism is additional jam prevention technology
from GBC.

9. maintenance

The rollers on the auto-feed mechanism may become dirty over time, please wipe clean with a dry
cloth to maintain maximum product performance.
The auto-start infra-red sensor, located in the paper feed entry-slot, can occasionally become
covered in paper-dust causing the shredder to run despite no paper being fed into the machine.
Switch the shredder off at the rear of the machine and carefully clean the sensor using a cotton-
swab.
