Using the Trash Compactor
Compactor
Loading Slightly lift and pull the compactor door
handle or press the foot pedal and pull the
drawer out. Remember:
•
To help keep the ram clean when compacting
messy food waste, place a couple of folded
sheets of newspaper on top of the load to be
compacted.
• Items too bulky to go into the drawer can be
folded to fit. If it cannot be folded to fit into
the drawer, do not attempt to force it in.
• Folded newspaper is also helpful when
compacting a large glass bottle, or several
bottles or jars, or any other items that might
shatter.
• Although it is not necessary to compact until
the drawer is full or nearly full, we suggest
that, for maximum compaction, you start the
compactor each time a significant amount of
trash is added.
