Getting fridge and freezer temperatures right protects your food and your energy bill. The targets are simple.
Fridge: 37°F (3°C)
Too warm spoils food; too cold freezes produce and wastes energy.
Fix: Aim for 37°F and verify with a separate fridge thermometer.
Freezer: 0°F (-18°C)
Zero degrees keeps food safely frozen without over-working the compressor.
Fix: Set it to 0°F and avoid setting colder unless you store long-term.
Give It Time and Airflow
The display changes instantly but the cabinet takes a day to stabilise.
Fix: Wait 24 hours between adjustments and keep vents unblocked.
