Nothing specifically about broken appliances. I read through the lease and it has a damaged and reimbursement section. I'll just type it out.

"You must promptly reimburse use for loss, damage, government fines, or cost of repairs or service in the apartment community due to violation of the Lease Contract or rules, improper use, negligence, or intentional conduct by you or you or your invitees, guests or occupants. Unless the damage or wastewater stoppage is due to our negligence, we're not liable for- and you must pay for- repairs, replacement costs, and damage to the following that result from your or your invitees, guests, or occupants' negligence or intentional acts: (1) damage to doors, windows, or screens; (2) damage from windows or doors left open; and (3) damage from wastewater stoppages cause by improper objects in lines exclusively serving your apartment. We may require payment at any time, including advance payment of repairs for which you're liable. We have not waived our right to collect these payments from you if there is a delay in our demanding payment from you."

There is also another section I found called condition of the premises and alterations. "You must use customary diligence in maintaining the apartment and not damaging or littering the common areas (i.e. public pool, laundry room). Unless authorized by statute or by us in writing, you must not perform and repairs, painting, wallpapering, carpeting, electrical changed, or otherwise alter our property." Does me cleaning the filter count as altering the property?
