Failure

CAUTION!
Risk of injury!
Remove material with caution, as sharp
edges present a risk of injury.

4 .1 Material jam

If a jam occurs because too much material or too hard
a material is fed into the machine, it reacts as follows:
The cutting mechanism stops and stands still.
ƒ
The pilot lamp (Fig. 1/8) lights up.
ƒ
Please proceed as follows:
1 . Open the safety glass (Fig. 2/1).
2 . Remove the material using the enclosed tongs.
3 . Close the safety glass.
4 . Feed the material again individually, one after ano-
ther.

4 .2 Material is not drawn in

Depending on the material's surface finish, the machi-
ne may be unable to draw it in. The cutting mechanism
cannot always firmly grip straight and smooth objects
or very rounded objects.
The machine repeatedly reverses the mechanism to
try and grip the material. If it does not work, the cut-
ting mechanism shuts off.
In this case, please proceed as follows:
1 . Open the safety glass (Fig. 2/1).
2 . Change the material's position and direction using
the enclosed tongs.
NOTE!
Identify the object's slimmest or roughest
points. Lay such a point on the cutting mecha-
nism. Removing detachable covers, e.g. the
battery cover, and destroying them individu-
ally can also help.
3 . Close the safety glass.
4 . Briefly press the forward button (Fig. 1/2).
¾ The shredding process starts.

4 .3 Material is not fully destroyed

Smart controls on the machine determine whether the
object has been destroyed and then turns the cutting
mechanism off. In isolated cases, some material can re-
main on the cutting mechanism. There are three possi-
ble reasons for this:
The machine could not grip the object
In this case, see „Material is not drawn in", p. 13.

Too much material was fed
In this case, please proceed as follows:
1 . Open the safety glass.
2 . Remove the material using the enclosed tongs.
3 . Close the safety glass.
4 . Feed the objects again individually, one after ano-
ther.
The material fed was too tough
In this case, please proceed as follows:
1 . Make sure the object fed corresponds to the area
of application (see „Area of application", p. 10).
If it does not, remove the object from the cutting
mechanism.
2 . If the object corresponds to the machine's area of
application, press the forward button (Fig. 1/2) to
restart the shredding process.

4 .4 Motor protection

If the motor is overloaded, it shuts off. The pilot lamp
(Fig. 1/3) lights up. After a cooling time of about 15-20
minutes (depending on the model and room tempera-
ture), you can restart the machine.

4 .5 Electrical failure

If the pilot lamp (Fig. 1/3) lights up, there may be an
electrical failure.
1 . Switch off the machine once.
2 . Turn the machine on again.
¾ This helps in many cases.
If the machine still fails to start up, please notify your
intimus service partner.

4 .6 Failure checklist

If the device does not work, check the following items:
Is the power plug connected to the grid?
ƒ
Is the door closed?
ƒ
Is the safety glass closed?
ƒ
Is the catch basket full?
ƒ
¾ Follow the instructions under „Emptying the
catch basket", p. 12.
Is material jammed in the device?
ƒ
¾ Follow the instructions under „Material jam",
p. 13.
Can the cutting mechanism not grip the material?
ƒ
¾ Follow the instructions under „Material is not
drawn in", p. 13.
Does the shredding process not fully destroy the
ƒ
material?
¾ Follow the instructions under „Material is not ful-
ly destroyed", p. 13.
