Error code F383
Appliance Refrigerator
Quick answer

F383 on a Miele refrigerator points to the ice cube maker water inlet, with several owner checks.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so F383 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

The ice cube maker water inlet is faulty.

F383 on a Miele refrigerator display says that the ice cube maker water inlet is faulty. The manual lists several causes, each with its own check.

Checks from the manual

  1. Fresh water inlet hose, if fitted: it may be kinked. Undo the kink so water flows through the hose freely.
  2. Inlet filter: if it is soiled, clean it.
  3. Water container, if fitted: it may not be seated correctly. Remove it, clean the surface underneath, line it up on the guide rail and push it in as far as it goes.
  4. Float switch in the water container: shake the container and see whether the switch moves. If it is jammed, clean the container and clear the blockage.
  5. Software fault: set the freezer section to -18 °C and leave it for at least 48 hours.
  6. Magnet for starting ice cube production: slide the ice cube maker drawer into the top freezer compartment. A holder is clipped onto the left-hand door handle, and the magnet sits behind it. If the magnet is missing, contact Customer Service.
