Whirlpool 220-240~volt - Manual (Page 17)

Troubleshooting Guide/Service
Before calling for assistance ...
Performance problems often result from little things you
can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.
If your compactor won’t operate:
“Is the power cable plugged Into a live circuit with the
proper voltage?
'Have you checked your home's main fuses or circuit
breaker box?
-Is the drawer completely closed?
®ls the Key-knob turned all the way to START before it is
released?
Drawer won’t open:
»Drawer will open only when ram Is all the way up.
■»To raise the ram, turn the Key-knob to START and
release.
If trash is not compacting:
^Is the drawer loaded properly? If anything gets between
the ram and the drawer, the ram will return to the “up"
position, without compacting.
•Drawer must be at least Vs full before compactor will
compact.
Not enough compaction or force:
•Compacting works best when only a few items are
loaded. Use the compacting cycle frequently.
Bottles don’t break:
•Not all bottles will break every time, depending on the
bottle and the trash load below It.
