You may not have filled the water reservoir when you hooked up the fridge. Run about 2 gallons of water through the dispenser. Then wait about 12 hours before you draw more water. This way the dispenser will fill and have time to cool down. It should stay cold after this.

The refrigerator makes 6 beeps after dispensing water. Everything seems to be working normally so I do not understand why it beeps after the paddle returns to its normal position.

The following is for Frigidaire models but others can be addressed similarly.

Several Frigidaire refrigerator models have an electronic control panel on the freezer door the owner can use to adjust the internal temperature, dispense ice and water and receive notification about issues such as the need to replace a water filter. The refrigerators also emit a beep for various actions and as an occasional alarm. Determining what causes the beeps necessitates some troubleshooting.
Temperature Controls ·A Frigidaire refrigerator's display panel blinks when the control panel is touched to set temperature controls. After pressing "Freezer Temp" or "Refrigerator Temp" on the keypad, press the arrow buttons within five seconds to increase or decrease the desired temperature. If you do not press the arrow buttons within five seconds after pressing "Freezer Temp" or "Refrigerator Temp" on the keypad, the refrigerator beeps to indicate the current setting will stay in place.

Door Open ·When you leave the refrigerator or freezer door open, the refrigerator beeps. Also, the "Door Ajar" indicator illuminates on the appliance's display panel. Shutting the door and pressing "Alarm Reset" stops the beeping and turns off the "Door Ajar" indicator light.
·The Frigidaire refrigerator has a control lock feature that prevents use of its control panel or dispensers when the unit is locked. When the control lock is active, a beep sounds when a keypad or dispenser is pressed. Release the control lock by pressing the "Control Lock" icon for three seconds. A beep will sound, and the icon's light will go out.
Power Reset ·A power reset is occasionally necessary if the Frigidaire refrigerator's control panel does not work normally or a reset function on the keypad does not work. A power reset involves disconnecting power to the refrigerator by unplugging its power cord from the electrical outlet, waiting 30 seconds and plugging the power cord back into the electrical outlet. When the control panel resets, a beep sounds. If the refrigerator beeps even after a power reset and the beeps' source is not known, contact Frigidaire.

Water Dispenser Temperature Control/switch-off

Not on regular models. Most models have a water tank in the fridge compartment which makes the water temperature to stay just above freezing temperature.

Wanna a play with your unit. Then remove the tank and just add two pipe ends together. Eliminating the tank. Then you should get room temperature water after about 5 seconds of cold water. Be careful just connecting the two ends of pipe after removing tank might lead to freezing pipes if your fridge temperature is close to freezing temp.

Water from dispenser is not cold

Did you let water run through dispenser long enough for air to get out of lines and for reservoir to completely fill?

No cold water

Hi,

Most refrigerators with a water dispenser have a reservoir (tank) to chill the water before it gets to the dispenser. This tank is typically behind the crisper bins so the water should be the same temperature as the refrigerator. The water may start out room temperature but should be cold by the time you have filled 1/2 a glass or so.

Saying all that, there are a few newer models out there that have reduced the cost of the refrigerator by eliminating the reservoir. If you take the crisper drawers out and look behind them and do not see a tank or coil of tubing then you do not have chilled water.

I hope this helps clarify.

The water from my water dispenser isn't cold.

Hi, Only thing you can do is check the temperature in the fresh food section and it should read 34-27 degrees. The temperature controls should both be set at half of the #'s on the dial.
I hope this helps you. Please let me know if I can assist you further.

Water supply line is freezing up

Your refrigerator is probably set too cold. The coils for the water are usually located behind your bottom drawer. Make the bottom drawer a little warmer or raise the temperature of your refrigerator a little bit.

Get a refrigerator thermometer so you can see your temp accurately.

Interior Water dispenser not working

I just had the same problem and symptoms. And it was reading your thread that put me on the right track. I put a thermometer inside and found that the temp was about 3 degrees colder than shown on the panel. I figured the line may be frozen in some area and turned the temp up 5 degrees. After about 10 hours I tried the dispenser and now am getting water out again. Maybe this will work for you - it was at least free!
