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 that CLr FLtr refers to on a Fisher & Paykel?
Behind the cover at the bottom right of the washer, the same cover used for the manual door release.
CLr FLtr came back right after I cleaned the filter. Why?
Something may still be blocking the pump or drain hose. Book a visit if a clean filter does not clear it.
