Locate the Controls: Check the interior or exterior of the fridge for the temperature controls. They’re often located inside the fridge compartment or on the control panel at the front or top of the fridge. Consult the Manual: If unsure, refer to the user manual that came with your fridge. It will provide guidance on locating and adjusting the temperature settings specific to your model. Use a Thermometer: Place a refrigerator thermometer (available at hardware or appliance stores) inside the fridge. Wait for a few hours to ensure the temperature stabilizes. Then, check the thermometer reading against the recommended temperature settings for your fridge type (usually between 35°F to 38°F or 1.7°C to 3.3°C). Adjust Settings if Needed: If the thermometer reading doesn’t align with the recommended temperature range, use the controls to adjust the temperature settings accordingly. Some fridges have a dial or digital display allowing you to adjust the temperature up or down. Monitor for Stability: Allow the fridge some time (a few hours) after adjusting the settings to stabilize at the new temperature. Check the thermometer again to ensure it reaches and maintains the desired temperature.
