Do not dismantle the appliance or attempt electrical repairs yourself.

Before reporting a supplied appliance as faulty, please complete these basic checks:

  • Check that the appliance has power and is switched on.
  • Check the switchboard for a tripped breaker or safety switch.
  • Check that doors, lids or safety locks are properly closed.
  • Check and clean accessible filters where applicable.
  • Check for any error code displayed and include this in your maintenance request.
  • If appropriate, switch the appliance off for a few minutes and restart it.

If the appliance still is not working, report it through the Console Tenant App with a photo, the appliance brand/model if visible, any error code and the checks you have completed. If a contractor attends and finds the issue was caused by incorrect operation, lack of basic cleaning, tenant damage or another tenant-responsibility issue, the tenant may be responsible for the call-out or repair cost.
