Overview

Model number KF 1813 Vi
Appliance category Refrigerator
Refrigerator service reference

Miele's KF 1813 Vi is a left-hinged integrated bottom-freezer that fits a 29 3/4-inch opening, so it suits cabinets planned tightly across the Miami, New York, Houston, Los Angeles and San Diego metro areas. An ice maker comes with the unit, which makes the water line part of the setup: it needs 25 to 80 psi of supply pressure through a standard 1/4-inch flexible connection. The power draw is 110/120 V at 60 Hz on a 15 amp circuit, and the five-foot cord ends in a NEMA 5-15 plug. On the booking form, list the symptom first, then the complete model string off the rating label, then any code the panel displays.

The left-hinged door and the MasterCool controls set this unit apart from right-hinged bottom-freezers of similar width. A 29 3/4-inch body with an included ice maker means the water line is part of the everyday setup, not an add-on. SmartFresh drawers keep produce in the fresh-food section, so a problem there is checked against those drawers first. Confirm the door swing before the cabinet is finished.

Service notes for the KF 1813 Vi

Ice output is the first thing a technician asks about on this model, since the included ice maker depends on steady supply pressure between 25 and 80 psi and a clear flexible line. A kinked or undersized line is ruled out before the freezer is opened. When the freezer frosts over, the check moves to the door gasket and the fan, because a frozen evaporator stops cold air from reaching the bottom compartment. A fresh-food section that will not reach its set point is handled after that. The owner can unplug the unit, check the water shutoff and note the control display.
