Figure 3-22      Stop push-button

Screw Forward Push-Button (green)

OTE

:

To stop both screws before the 30

 

seconds, press and quickly release the yellow push-button. 

Both screws will then stop immediately.

Screw Rewind Push-Button (yellow)

Sometimes during food waste collection one of the screw may get jammed and therefore may no 
longer move the waste into the pod. In such a situation, press the screw rewind push-button 
(see  Figure 3-24) to correct it. By pressing this button both screws will go the opposite way 
momentarily to unjam the system. When the jamming is tough to be removed, pressing alternatively 
the green and yellow push-buttons may be required.

Press this button once to rotate the screws momentarily in a backward direction to unjam the 
system.
