Cell life low does not indicate that cell life is over. It is a time-based warning that alerts you to the level of operating hours.

Re. the Clean Cell light:
Double check the pool’s salinity level. Independently measure salt level and adjust to 3500-4000ppm if needed.
If the salinity level independently tests in range, the Cell needs to be cleaned to remove mineral scaling or other debris. Clean the cell according to the instructions in the manual. Inspect the Cell after cleaning to make sure nothing is stuck between the plates. Sometimes multiple cleanings in a row are required; mix a new batch of cleaning solution and let it soak inside the cell. If “fizzing” still occurs, repeat the cleaning process with new solution each time until fizzing no longer occurs when new solution has been added to the Cell.
If the salt level is ideal and the Cell has been thoroughly cleaned multiple times in a row, the cell plates may be depleted or damaged and the cell has reached the end of its useable lifespan. If damaged, inspect the cell for plates that are damaged, deteriorated, pitted or physically worn. If so, this indicates corrosive water chemistry (low LSI) that needs to be prevented through regularly ensuring proper water balance.
Is the pool losing prime and/or is low-speed pump operation causing air to accumulate in the Cell?
