PF — Power Failure

PF means a Power Failure — power to the refrigerator was interrupted and then restored. It is an alert, not a hardware fault; clear it and verify temperatures recovered. ("Power Freeze"/"Quick Freeze" is a Samsung/LG feature name, not what Frigidaire PF means.)

Replace your water filter

A clogged or overdue water filter is a common cause of low water and ice flow on Frigidaire refrigerators — they are meant to be changed about every 6 months. The OEM-style filter that fits most Frigidaire refrigerators is the WF3CB ($35-50 OEM, $12-20 compatible).
