Small problems for self-help
Before calling the service engineer, check the following points and see if you
can solve the problem yourself.
If the service engineer is simply called-in for advice, i.e. if he finds no real fault
with the appliance when he visits, you will be charged the full cost of service
time, even before the guarantee period has run out.
