Using the Air FilterorFreshener

The fan-powered charcoal Air Filter absorbs and minimizes odor. The degree of odor in the compactor depends on the type of trash placed in it. The length of time before the filter needs to be replaced varies with the type of trash compacted. Under normal use the filter should be replaced once or twice per year.

To use the filter:

1.Press ON on the charcoal Air Filter control. The fan creates air movement in the compactor for odor removal.

NOTE: The charcoal Air Filter works even when the Key-Knob is in the OFF position.

IMPORTANT: The air freshener will work with or without the fan.

2.Press OFF on the charcoal Air Filter control to turn off the fan.

Removing a Filled Bag

When the trash is compacted to the top of the drawer, remove the bag. If the bag is too heavy, compact less trash before emptying it in the future.

IMPORTANT: Do not push items down into compactor with hands or feet.

1.Pull the drawer completely open.

2.Remove top of bag from bag retainer buttons. Pull up all four bag cuffs. Close bag with twist tie provided.

3.Push Side-Lock Latch down and tilt drawer side open.

4.Lift out bag.
