WHAT TO DO

Plug compactor into a properly grounded outlet. (See Installation Instructions.)

Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker.

Push drawer closed.

Restart by turning key-knob all the way to the left.

Turn the key-knob to START and release.

Reload drawer. If anything gets between the ram and the drawer, the ram will return to the “up” position without compacting.

Continue to put trash in compactor and run cycle. Drawer must be at least l/3 full before compactor will compact.

Use the compacting cycle frequently. Compacting works best when only a few items are loaded.

Load bottles on their side in the center of the drawer. Not all bottles will break every time, depending on the bottle and the trash below it.
