Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Appliances such as microwave, refrigerator, and water softener system are are luxury items right? If these items were not fully operational, would it be considered under law to be uninhabitable conditions? Where exactly could I find the definition of uninhabitable conditions? Does a torn screen or a missing blind count as inhabitable conditions?
