Describe the order of events, especially if sound, heat, water, cooling, movement, or display behavior changed together. When the symptom involves heat, water, gas, electricity, or microwave operation, describe what you noticed without opening internal parts. Avoid repeated resets when the same warning returns, since the pattern itself can be useful during diagnosis. Those details help the call focus on timing, service category, and the safest next step.

Photos of leaks, display messages, frost, damaged seals, or trapped items can help. Avoid removing panels or forcing parts while tracking start and power problems, controls, buzzing, sparking, fan, or light, and microwave not heating.
