10. troubleshooting

Before you call for service, check these handy hints which
may save you the cost of a service call:
1. Is electric cord plugged in securely?
2. Has a house fuse blown or a circuit breaker tripped?
3. Is the door pushed firmly shut?
4. Is the key switch in the "ON" position?
5. Did you press the "Start" button long enough to start
the compaction cycle?
6. If trash bucket is difficult to close, check to see if any
trash has fallen behind the bucket - preventing it from
closing completely.
7. The motor has an automatic thermal cutout. If you
have compacted repeatedly, this protector may have
opened the circuit. Wait a few minutes and the cutout
will reset automatically.
8. The trash bucket must be at least 1/2 full of trash
before any appreciable amount of compacting will
be apparent - as the ram does not travel all the way
to the bottom of the bucket. Trash in the bottom 1/3
of the bucket will be crushed during subsequent
compacting.
9. On rare occasions, a large can placed near the outer
edge of the trash bucket may become wrapped around
the edge of the ram. This could interfere with proper
ram operation. To correct, simply open the door,
unlatch and open the front of the bucket, and remove
the can. BE CAREFUL WHEN HANDLING SHARP
OBjECTS!
10. In the unlikely event that the interlock actuator (on the
inside of the door) breaks off, the compactor will not
operate. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE COMPACTOR
IN ANY OTHER MANNER. A replacement actuator can
be ordered from your Broan Distributor.
11. To obtain service, provide the unit model number,
serial number and nature of any defect in the product
or part. The model number, serial number and all other
data is shown on the model plate, which is located on
the inside wall of cabinet. When requesting warranty
service, evidence of the original purchase date must be
presented. To obtain the name of the warranty service
center serving your location, contact the dealer who
sold you your compactor or Broan-NuTone LLC.
