What not to do

Questions
about CLr FLtr.

Can I clear CLr FLtr myself?
Open the pump filter cover at the bottom right of the washer. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Where is the pump filter on a Fisher & Paykel front loader?
Behind the small cover at the bottom right of the cabinet, the same access point used for the manual door release in a power outage.
How often should the Fisher & Paykel pump filter be checked?
The guide treats it as routine upkeep rather than a set interval, so checking it whenever lint or small items collect keeps the message from appearing.
CLr FLtr keeps coming back right after I clean the filter. What next?
A blockage further down the drain path is a likely cause at that point, and it is worth having that checked rather than repeating the same cleaning.

Back to your everyday

Still showing CLr FLtr?

A booking goes further when it has the reminder or code as shown, the model number from the rating plate, and a word on when that filter, screen or tub was last cleaned. With those three, the office can pack the right filter or cleaner for your appliance.
