1. HOW THE COMPACTOR WORKS
The Broan Elite compactor compresses household trash up to
1/6 of its original volume. It will compact normal household trash
including milk cartons, glass and plastic bottles, containers and
jars, tin cans, wrappings, boxes, food wastes, etc.
When you start the compactor, an electrically powered
ram moves down into the trash bucket, compresses the
trash and then returns to the “UP” position and shuts off
automatically.
NOTE: The ram travels about 2/3 of the way down into the
trash bucket. Because of this, the trash bucket must be at
least 1/3 full before you will notice any compression.
