01

Turn the dishwasher off and on again once.

02

If F30 stays, turn off the water and disconnect the dishwasher from power.

03

Book a visit before the machine is used again.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [leak and seal repair](https://dishwasherrepair.center/services/leak-and-seal-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

## Questions about F30.

### Can I clear F30 myself?

Turn the dishwasher off and on again once. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### How many times should I restart my Fisher & Paykel for F30?

Once. If F30 stays after that, turn off the water and disconnect the power.

### What does F30 mean on a Fisher & Paykel dishwasher?

The flood switch in the base has been triggered. Book a visit before using the machine again.
