Qualified technician handoff: stop before live electrical testing, sealed-system refrigeration work, compressor service, or protected-compartment access unless a qualified technician is handling the work.

  • Because this flow involves advanced troubleshooting, any step touching the electrical supply, compressor, or protected panels must be performed exclusively by a qualified technician.
  • If the issue relates to the cooling system or electrical components, immediate escalation to a qualified technician is mandatory for safety.
