Faults
Problem Cause Solution
Power plug is not prop-
erly connected in the
power socket.
Insert the plug properly.
The paper is too thin and,
as a result, does not
touch the mechanical
sensor.
Try using thicker paper. If the device then
operates, fold the thin paper and try
shredding it again.
The device does
not operate when
paper has been
inserted.
The motor has over-
heated and switched off
automatically. It is possi-
ble that paper has
jammed in the cutting
mechanism.
Clearing a paper jam:
1. Move the sliding switch to its Rev
(Reverse) position to dislodge and
remove the jammed paper.
2. If this proves ineffective, disconnect
the power plug. Remove the shredder
attachment and remove any jammed
paper from the cutting mechanism
manually.
Wait 30-40 minutes (until the motor has
cooled down) and try to use the shredder
again.
Too many sheets have
been inserted in the in-
feed.
The paper size inserted
was too large (larger than
A4).
Move the sliding switch to its Rev (Re-
verse) position to remove the jammed
paper. Then insert maximally 5 sheets of
A4 (80 g/m²) (unfolded).
The device
does not shred.
The paper was inserted
crooked.
Move the sliding switch to its Rev (Re-
verse) position to remove the jammed
paper. Insert the paper as straight as
possible.
The sliding switch is set
to Fwd.
Move the sliding switch to Auto (Auto-
matic operation).
The device does
not stop after the
shredding process
has finished.
Paper has caught at the
mechanical sensor.
Remove the paper from the cutting
mechanism (refer to "Clearing a Paper
Jam").
The device makes
loud noises.
The device does not
stand on a level surface.
Set the device down on a level surface.
If you cannot clear the fault yourself, contact your dealer or call the Olympia hotline.
