COMPACTOR USE

How Your Compactor Works

The compacting ram is the part of the compactor which

compresses the trash. The compacting ram does not go to the

bottom of the drawer. You will not see compacting of trash the

first few times you load the compactor.

NOTE: The compactor drawer should be more than ¹⁄₂ full before

the compactor can begin to compress the load.

You may hear a noise when glass breaks. Strong glass bottles

may not break at all. The trash in a full compactor bag will be

about ¹⁄₄ the size of its original bulk.

Load bulky trash, bottles, and cans in the center of the drawer.

Bottles or cans not placed in the center may become caught

between the ram and the drawer. The Drawer Monitor Switch

then senses a “misload” and causes the ram to return to the “up”

position without compacting.

IMPORTANT: Do not push items down into compactor with

hands or feet.

NOTE: You will not see compacting of trash the first few times

you load the compactor. The compactor drawer should be about

¹⁄₂ full before the compactor can begin to compress the load.

1. Open the drawer. Lift and pull the handle or press the foot

pedal to open the drawer.

NOTE: Pressing the foot pedal opens the container only 3" to

6" (7.6 cm to 15.2 cm), depending on the load.

2. Place trash in compactor.

■ Wrap or cover wet or messy trash.

■ Do not compact items that may develop offensive odors

such as raw meat, fish, grapefruit rinds, disposable

diapers, or personal hygiene items.

■ Load bottles or cans on their sides in the center of the

drawer. Do not load bottles in an upright position.

3. Close the drawer.

Starting the Compactor

Depending on your model, you may have a single control (Style 1)

or a dual control (Style 2) compactor.

Style 1

To start and stop the compactor

1. To start the compactor, turn the Key-Knob to START and then

let go. The compactor will automatically stop at the end of the

cycle.

2. To stop the compactor during a cycle:

■ Turn the Key-Knob to LOCK/OFF.

■ Then turn the Key-Knob to ON so the compacting ram

will rise.

■ When the ram stops rising, you can open the drawer.

To remove the Key-Knob

1. Turn the Key-Knob to the LOCK/OFF position.

2. Remove the Key-Knob and store it out of children’s reach.
