However, there are a few things you are expected to do in order to properly maintain your compactor. This section will tell you how to clean and care for your compactor. Changing the Air Filter or Freshener It is recommended that you use either the charcoal air filter or the air freshener in the filter compartment. The solid air freshener system is an alternative to the air filter and is designed to control odors that might develop in the trash. To order the correct replacement charcoal filters or air fresheners, call the toll-free number listed on the cover or in the “Assistance or Service” section. 1. Insert fingertips in the air filter cover and pull until the side tabs release. Then, lift the cover to release the bottom tabs. 2. Remove the air filter by pulling the top edge of the filter. The filter should pull out easily. Throw away used filter. OR Remove the air freshener by simply lifting out of the filter compartment. Throw away used freshener. 3. To replace air filter, push the replacement filter into place. OR To replace the air freshener, place the replacement in the filter compartment. 4. Insert the bottom tabs of the air filter cover and push in until the side tabs snap into place. Cleaning Before cleaning the compactor, turn the Key-Knob (or Key- Switch) to the OFF & LOCK position and remove it.
