2. USE OF KEY LOCK SWITCH
The key lock switch on your compactor is provided for your
protection as a safety measure.
When the key lock switch is in the “OFF”
position, the compactor will not operate.
Lock your compactor, and remove the key
to keep children from operating the unit or
to prevent anyone from tampering with it.
When the key lock switch is in the “ON”
position, the compactor is ready for
operation. The key cannot be removed
when in the “ON” position.
NOTE: Opening the door during operation will stop the
unit. If the compactor is stopped during its cycle, it will
always move back UP when the door is closed.
3. INSTALL ODOR CONTROL DISK
Your Compactor is equipped with an odor control disk
that will last up to six months when installed in the trash
compactor. The odor disk comes packaged in a foil pouch
and is activated once the pouch is opened.
Write dates on the odor disk labels in this manner:
When pouch is opened, write the “Activation Date” on top of disk
in space provided.
Write dates on the GREEN month indicator labels in this manner:
Month 1 Label “Advance Date” = 1 month from “Activation Date”
Month 2 Label “Advance Date” = 2 months from “Activation Date”
Month 3 Label “Advance Date” = 3 months from “Activation Date”
Month 4 Label “Advance Date” = 4 months from “Activation Date”
Month 5 Label “Advance Date” = 5 months from “Activation Date”
Write date on the RED month indicator label in this manner:
Month 6 Label “Replacement Date” = 6 months from “Activation
Date”
Caution: The odor control disk contains material that may
cause moderate eye irritation. Avoid contact with eyes.
Harmful if swallowed. Wash skin or clothing thoroughly
with soap and water after handling. Do not reuse empty
foil pouch.
Remove the disk
from the foil
pouch, swing
open the odor disk
door, and place
disk face down on
tray so that the
GREEN Month
“1” is visible in
the window when
the odor disk door
is closed.

4. INSTALL BAG
With the door open
and the trash bucket
extended to the furthest
position, place a bag
into the bucket. Fold
the bag over the top
rim of the bucket, on
all sides.
Press the bag into all
corners of the bucket
and smooth the bottom.
Smooth and shape the
bag carefully - this will
prevent the bag from
being torn by the ram
during compaction.
Secure the bag in
place over the 2
buttons on each side
of the bucket. The bag
has prepunched slots
for this purpose.
5. CUTTING BOARD (optional)
If your compactor will not be installed under a counter -
you can order an optional cutting board, Model 15TCBB,
from your Broan Distributor.
The cutting board rests on the top of the compactor, and
features non-marring rubber feet and a gravy groove on the
top.
To keep your wood cutting board from warping, wash with a
mild detergent and apply a thin coat of mineral oil.
Pr ep ar at ion
After a month has
passed, rotate the
disk from right to
left with your finger.
Repeat every
month.
On the 6th month,
the label in the
window will be RED
- indicating that the
odor disk needs to be replaced after 30 days.
Odor disk, Model 15TCOD, is available from your Broan
Distributor.
