You must not leave appliances, including washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers and irons unattended or while the Property is unoccupied where this would create an unreasonable risk.

Where safe to do so, you must isolate the relevant supply (including mains switch or stop tap). You must not attempt any repair.

27.6  You must compensate us for any reasonable, properly evidenced direct losses, costs arising from damage to or interference with utility installations, unauthorised alteration or misuse, failure to take reasonable care or failure to manage or notify utility accounts resulting in additional liability to us. All such compensation is subject to Clause 19.
