F0 in the owner guide
Sealed system failure is the description attached to F0, and Frigidaire pairs it with EC in the dehumidifier guide.
Quick reference
Instruction: schedule service.
Installed within 30 days: refer back to the installer.
Installed after 30 days: support schedules the service.
What the guide does not give
The entry is a listing for dehumidifiers in the owner support guide and carries no checks for you to carry out yourself, which is why the next move is always a call to Frigidaire. The timing rule is the only extra detail printed there.
Easy to confuse with
F1 and F2 start with the same letter but are sensor failures: see F1 and F2. H3 is overload protection for the compressor.
