Installation - Viking Designer Series Installation Manual

INSTALLATION

Begin with compactor in room where it will be installed.
CAUTION: PRODUCT/FLOOR DAMAGE
•Do not grasp the console to move the compactor.
•Before moving compactor across floor, slide compactor onto
cardboard or hardboard. Failure to follow these instructions
may result in damage to floor covering or product.
1. Remove compactor from shipping carton. Remove all protective packaging materials such as tape and shipping
pads. Waxy residue from protective shipping material may be removed with a mild solution of liquid household
cleanser and water.
2. Check that power supply cord is attached to the cord bracket on the rear of the compactor.
3. Measure the height of the cabinet opening from the underside of the countertop to floor. Subtract 1/4" (.6 cm)
from this measurement. Adjust compactor to this height using pliers to lower the compactor leveling feet away from
the compactor.

CUSTOM FRONT PANEL INSTALLATION (DFC MODELS)
The Designer Full Overlay model should be installed with a locally supplied custom front panel. All parts needed to
install the panel come standard with the Designer Full Overlay model trash compactor. A handle should be used on
the custom front panel rather than a knob because a knob does not provide enough grip. Also note that the handle
should be attached to the panel before installing the front panel onto the compactor. See "Installing Custom
Front"section below for detailed information on attaching front panel to compactor. Mounting hardware for the handle
must be flush to the overlay panel.
