• Finally, use the container latch to completely close the door. This will pull the door guide ‘‘V’’ snug in the ‘‘V’’ groove in the drawer flange and tightly grasp the bag. Failure to align the ‘‘V’’s properly or to latch the drawer to the door may cause the compactor to not function properly. To remove a full trash bag: • Pull the drawer out to the first stop. • Unhook the container latch from the door catch and swing the door open. • Unbutton the bag and close it by twisting the bag top, much as you would close a garbage bag. Fasten with a twist tie. • Slip your hand through both handles in the bag caddy and pull upward and forward, tipping the bag toward you. A full bag of compacted trash is easy to carry in this manner. Bag Caddy Trash Bag Drawer Buttons “V” Groove Container Latch 6 OPERATING YOUR COMPACTOR After installing a trash bag, the compactor is ready to use. Trash Operating Compactor Loading Pull the trash drawer out as far as necessary to load the items. • Bottles and large cans compact best when laid flat near the center of the drawer. • To help keep the ram clean when compacting messy food waste, place a couple of folded sheets of newspaper or a large grocery bag on top of the load to be compacted. • Folded newspaper will also help prevent glass fragments from flying out of the drawer into the mechanism when compacting a large glass bottle, or several bottles or jars, or any other items that might shatter. • Refuse 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. • 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. Compacting To start the compactor: 1. Close the drawer. 2. Rotate the key past ON to the START position, hold it momentarily at START, and then release it back to ON. The motor will start and compacting will proceed. CAUTION: DO NOT FORCE KEY WHEN TURNING. The key should always rotate easily. Forcing may break the key and damage the switch. The ram travels downward into the drawer, compacting the trash. At the bottom of the stroke, the ram automatically reverses direction, retracts out of the drawer, returns to its starting position and the compactor shuts off automatically. The cycle takes about one minute. As the trash drawer fills, cycle time gets progressively shorter. Glass bottles can make a loud noise when they break during compaction. This is normal. Also, bottles in the trash drawer will not always break during the first cycle. Breaking glass and associated noise may occur several cycles later, depending on the type and volume of the trash. When bottles and cans are compacted, small tears in the bag may occur. This is normal and in no way affects the performance of the compactor. Always use the bag caddy to carry the compacted trash to storage or pick-up areas, and keep the bag away from your body to prevent injury from sharp objects that may have pierced the bag. CAUTION: When emptying waste baskets into the trash drawer, some items may spill into the compactor behind the drawer. Items behind the drawer could prevent it from closing completely and prevent the compactor from operating. To remove such items from behind the drawer, open the drawer and, if necessary, remove it to clean them out. See Care and Cleaning instructions. To Stop Compacting The compactor may be stopped at any time by turning the key to OFF. Restarting the compactor will allow the ram to move upward into its starting position. Anti-Jamming Feature Should unusual loads cause misalignment, compactor will automatically stop to prevent damage to the unit. To reset the unit and return the ram to the UP position, turn the key switch to START and hold momentarily at START, then release it back to ON. The motor will start and the ram will return to the UP position and stop. Redistribute the load evenly in the drawer, placing bottles and large cans flat and centered in the drawer, before recycling the compactor. 7 CARE AND CLEANING The inside and outside of your compactor are finished with durable baked-on enamel. Cleaning—Outside Keep the outside clean. Do not wipe with a soiled dishwashing cloth—it may leave a residue that can damage the paint. Do not use harsh or gritty cleansers or scouring pads that may mar the finish. Apply a coat of kitchen/appliance wax when the compactor is new, and then several times a year. Appliance Polish and Wax Cleaner (Cat. No. WR97X216) is available from GE Appliance Parts Marts. Stainless Steel Panels. The stainless steel panels can be cleaned with Stainless Steel Magic or a similar product using a clean, soft cloth. You can order Stainless Steel Magic (Cat. No. WX10X15) through GE Parts by calling 800.626.2002. When going on vacation For vacations or other extended absences, remove the trash bag to prevent a build-up of undesirable odor. Cleaning—In...
