Start with the first thing that changed, then add whether the symptom is getting worse or staying the same. For intermittent symptoms, note how long the appliance runs before the problem appears and what happens when it stops. Do not force a stuck door, latch, drawer, burner, valve, shelf, or control because that can add damage before diagnosis. The goal is to give enough context for scheduling without turning the call into risky do-it-yourself diagnosis.
Keep the appliance area accessible where practical, but avoid disassembly. If there is water, heat, gas odor, sparking, or a burning smell, stop use and mention that immediately.
