Side by Side ModelsIf foods, such as fruits and vegetables, in the refrigerator are freezing, it can be caused by several things. First, check the controls. They should be set at "C" and "5" or "5" and "5". The proper fresh food temperature is between 38 and 42 degrees Fahrenheit. The freezer should be between 0 and 8 degrees Fahrenheit.

If food in the bottom of the refrigerator is freezing, this could be caused by a refrigerator not having enough food to absorb the cold air.
If food in the door is freezing, move the door bins up or down so they are one notch away from freezer vents (Side by Side models only).
The fresh food control should be at the normal setting of 5.

Freezer on Top Models
First, check the controls. They should be set at "C" and "5" or "5" and "5". The proper fresh food temperature is between 38 and 42 degrees Fahrenehit. The freezer should be between 0 and 8 degrees Fahrenheit.

Since the cold air coming into the fresh food section originates in the freezer above, the rear of the top shelf will be the coldest spot in the fresh food area. Avoid placing delicate items that freeze easily on the back half of this shelf.
If food is freezing in the produce (fruits and vegetables) or meat pan, it may be that the temperature controls are not set high enough. Since cold air naturally falls, the pans can get too cold if the refrigerator is not running long enough to maintain good air circulation. Adjust both controls up one notch.

If your veg is freezing you need to RAISE the temp in the fridge,if #7 is coldest,then #1 is warmest.SET IT TO #3.You should keep a fridge at +5C for best storage of CHILLED food.you should also adjust your fridge for summer and winter ambient temperatures.a fridge/FREEZER thermometer is ESSENTIAL.OTHERWISE YOUR WASTING MONEY/ENERGY.

Vegtables freezing in refrigerator drawer

This could be due to frozen air passages...defrost the unit, food packed too close to the passages, possibly low on gas. First, clean out your condenser radiator at the bottom of the unit...rear. It is probably blocked.
