Troubleshooting.
13
When checking an appliance you can come
across some problems which are a result of
improper handling of the appliance and
can be easily eliminated. Run through this
checklist before calling your nearest Service
office.
Repairs may only be performed by qualified
technicians. ’DIY’ repairs or unqualified
and untrained service people may put you
in danger, could damage the appliance and
might mean that you lose cover under the
Guarantee.
