Safe checks you can make
These are simple, non-hazardous checks only. If anything is unclear, stop and contact a technician.

- Check water supply if connected
- Disconnect power at the breaker for five minutes, then restore to clear stored alarms. Press alarm/controls per your manual if applicable.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
What not to attempt

- Do not bypass door locks, safety switches or interlocks
When to call a technician
