including the following:

• This compactor is for household use only.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE USE SHOULD YOU MOVE OR
RELOCATE YOUR COMPACTOR. If you did
not receive an Installation Instruction sheet with
your compactor, you can obtain one by contacting

• Close supervision is necessary when any

appliance is operated near children. Do not
allow the compactor to be used as a toy, or to run
unattended at any time.

• Turn the key to OFF and remove it when not

compacting trash. This will help prevent anyone
from tampering with the compactor or children
from operating it.

• Do not push trash into the drawer with hands

or feet. Trash might contain broken glass, sharp
pieces of metal, or other sharp objects that might
cause injury.

• When removing or carrying the trash bag, 

keep the bag away from your body. Sharp objects
may have pierced it.

• When cleaning the inside of the cabinet,

be careful. Glass fragments may be stuck to 
the ram or be lying in the bottom of the cabinet.

• When cleaning the trash drawer, be careful.

Glass fragments may be imbedded in the surface
of the drawer.

• Do not touch moving parts.

• Do not operate with a damaged cord set, plug,

motor, or after damage in any manner. Have
the appliance examined, repaired, or adjusted by
an authorized serviceman.

• Do not take apart this appliance. Incorrect

reassembly can cause electric shock when
subsequently used.

• Do not compact food waste such as raw meat

and fish, grapefruit rinds, personal hygiene
items and disposable diapers. 
These items 
create very strong odors and should not go 
into the compactor.

Precautions against unreasonable use of your
compactor:

• Never compact shotgun shells, cartridges 

for firearms, fireworks, etc., which are highly
explosive.

• Never compact flammable materials such as 

paint, oil- or gasoline-saturated rags, engine
starting fluid cans, paint thinner cans, etc.—
spontaneous combustion or explosive vapor
concentrations could occur.

• Never compact containers of toxic chemicals 

such as strong insecticides or other poisonous
materials—compaction could release hazardous
fumes.

• Never compact aerosol cans containing explosive

or highly toxic chemicals. (If you are sure the
aerosol cans contain non-hazardous materials
such as shaving cream, cheese spread and
whipped cream, they may be compacted.)

• Do not compact lighted cigarettes, cigars, or other

hot or burning items.

• Unplug the compactor before making any

repairs. NOTE: We strongly recommend that any
servicing be performed by a qualified person.

• DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG 

OR AN EXTENSION CORD WITH 
THIS APPLIANCE.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
