COMPACTOR USE
How Your Compactor Works
The compacting ram is the part of the compactor which
compresses the trash.
IMPORTANT: The compacting ram stops 7" (18 cm) from the
bottom of the drawer. You will not see compacting of trash until
the drawer is more than 1/2 full.
You may hear a noise when glass breaks. Strong glass bottles
may not break. The trash in a full compactor bag will be about
1/4 the size of its original bulk.
