Frequently Asked Questions - TC707S WHIRLPOOL

How do I start the compactor?
Open the drawer, place waste, close the drawer, then lift the foot-activated START pedal to start the compaction cycle.
Why is my compactor not working?
Check that the power cord is plugged in, the fuse has not blown or the circuit breaker tripped, the drawer is fully closed, and the key switch is in the ON position.
The drawer won't open, what should I do?
The drawer only opens when the ram is fully raised. If the Compress cycle is active, the drawer remains locked until you press the START pedal to reactivate.
How do I use the Compress cycle?
Set the Compress switch to ON, close the drawer and lift the START pedal. The ram stays down for additional compaction. Use for at least 30 minutes for best results.
How do I replace the air filter?
Insert your fingers into the filter cover, pull to release the tabs, remove the old filter, then push the new filter into place and replace the cover.
Where can I buy replacement bags?
You can order specific bags from your local dealer or by calling Jenn-Air customer service at 1-800-536-6247 (US) or 1-800-807-6777 (Canada).
What types of waste should not be compacted?

How do I clean the inside of the compactor?
Remove the bag, then clean the drawer and cabinet with a sponge and mild detergent. Wear gloves to protect your hands from glass debris. Dry thoroughly.
What if the ram does not compact?
Make sure the drawer is more than half full. The first loads may not compress fully. Place bulky items in the center of the drawer to avoid errors.
How do I adjust the pedal height if it rubs?
Mark the rubbing area, remove the drawer, cut the pedal along the marked line using scissors or a utility knife, then reinstall the drawer.

COMPACTOR USE

How Your Compactor Works

The compacting ram is the part of the compactor which compresses the trash. The compacting ram does not go to the bottom of the drawer. You will not see compacting of trash the first few times you load the compactor.

NOTE: The compactor drawer should be more than 1/2 full before the compactor can begin to compress the load.

You may hear a noise when glass breaks. Strong glass bottles may not break at all. The trash in a full compactor bag will be about 14 the size of its original bulk.

WHIRLPOOL TC707S - How Your Compactor Works - 1

WHIRLPOOL TC707S - How Your Compactor Works - 2

Load bulky trash, bottles, and cans in the center of the drawer. Bottles or cans not placed in the center may become caught between the ram and the drawer. The Analyzer Monitor Switch then senses a "misload" and causes the ram to return to the "up" position without compacting.

WHIRLPOOL TC707S - How Your Compactor Works - 3

Loading

IMPORTANT: Do not push items down into compactor with hands or feet.

NOTE: You will not see compacting of trash the first few times you load the compactor. The compactor drawer should be about 12 full before the compactor can begin to compress the load.

  1. Open the drawer. Lift and pull the handle or press the foot pedal to open the drawer.

NOTE: Pressing the foot pedal opens the container only 3'' to 6'' (7.6 cm to 15.2 cm), depending on the load.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.

Trash is not compacting

■ Is the drawer less than half-full?Drawer must be more than half full before trash is compacted.

Your compactor won't operate

■ Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
- Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
■ Is the drawer completely closed? Close the drawer firmly and start the compactor again.
■ Is the Key-Knob turned all the way to START? Turn the Key-Knob (Key-Switch) fully to START and release (on some models). See "Starting Your Compactor."
Did you press ON before pressing START? Press ON before pressing START (on some models). See "Starting Your Compactor."

The drawer won't open

■ Is the ram all the way up? Drawer will open only when ram is fully raised.

To raise the ram on models with a Key-Knob (or Key-Switch): Turn the Key-Knob (Key-Switch) to START and release. See "Starting Your Compactor."

To raise the ram on models with push button controls: Press OFF, and then press ON. See "Starting Your Compactor."

■ Is the Compress Cycle engaged? Printer remains LOCKED until you reset by lifting the foot pedal up.

There is not enough compaction or force

  • Do you use the compacting cycle frequently enough? Compacting works best when only a few items are loaded.

Bottles don't break

How often do you notice this? Bottles will not break every time. The thickness of a bottle's glass and the content of the trash load below it may keep the bottle from breaking.

A compactor makes recycling and landfill reduction efforts more effective and efficient.

Recycling Guidelines

Contact your community recycling program or local recycling organizations to find out which items are accepted for recycling and how they should be prepared and organized. These programs will provide essential recycling guidelines:

Method and frequency of collection—curbside collections and drop-off centers.
- Categories of recyclable items, and how to distinguish between them. Plastic containers are identified by codes on the bottom. Sort by the numbers inside the triangular arrows. For example, most plastic soda bottles and some cleaning bottles have code 1; most milk and water jugs, laundry and personal hygiene product containers have code 2. Paper and cardboard containers (paperboard) also have recycle symbols to indicate a container is recyclable.

Preparations of recyclable items. Most recycling programs provide specific guidelines on preparation. For example, aluminum cans and plastic containers need to be rinsed out, lids removed, but often labels can be left on.

IMPORTANT:

Some items, such as glass, should not be compacted.
Most recycling programs will not accept crushed glass.
- Check with your recycling program for specific guidelines on preparing recyclables.

Organizing the Recycling Workspace

Convenient recycle bins are made to fit in the compactor drawer. These bins, as well as plastic compactor bags, can be purchased in a variety of colors at hardware stores and supermarkets. Set up a system of color-coded bags in an area chosen for processing recyclables. Each color can represent a category of recyclable items, based on types specified by your recycling program. Separate recyclable items from nonrecyclable items:

Recyclable items can be sorted using the color-coded bags. Prepare items according to guidelines provided by your recycling program.
Nonrecyclable items should be compacted because compaction reduces trash volume to its original size: four bags of trash can be compacted into one bag. This contributes to reducing landfill volume and related waste transportation burdens.

REMEMBER: Do not expect items which contain minimal air, such as folded newspapers, to compact significantly.

Compacting Recyclable Items

Most recycling programs want the consumer to crush or flatten recyclable items such as plastics, cans, and paperboard. Compacting recyclable items consolidates volume and thereby reduces transportation costs—and also helps manage recycling workspace more effectively. The compactor is ideal for such a task. When a plastic bag is full enough to require compacting, place the bag in the drawer as shown in "Installing a New Bag." Then follow instructions in "Compactor Use." When the compacting cycle is complete, remove the plastic bag as shown in "Removing a Filled Bag" and return it to storage until it is full enough to recycle.
