It compacts most refuse, including paper, cans, bottles, jars, plastic containers, wrappings, sweepings and some food wastes. Drop trash into the disposable bag (designed for compactor use) that lines the compactor trash drawer and close the drawer. When you start the compactor, an electrically-operated ram moves down into the drawer, compacts trash, moves back up again—and the compactor shuts off automatically. NOTE: The trash drawer must be at least 1/2 full before you will notice compaction because the ram does not travel all the way down into the drawer. By adding trash, compaction is transferred to the items below until all trash is compacted. ON/OFF Knob The removable knob is provided for your protection as a safety measure. When the knob switch is in the OFF position, the compactor will not operate. Child Lockout Instructions: Lock the compactor when it is not in use, by removing the knob. This will keep children from operating the compactor and prevent anyone from tampering with it. Drawer Safety Switch The compactor has two safety switches to ensure that the drawer is in its fully closed position for operation. The compactor will not cycle without the drawer being fully closed.
