SOURCE: A funny smell and i think it might be the temperature

Adjust the knob to 3 or 4 which would be the midway temperature.

0 would probably be off or close to it. The 7 would be coldest and freeze water.

If this is manual defrost you need to turn it off and defrost it. The frost will keep it from getting cold enough. The buildup is normal from humid warm air when opening the door. You might get a standalone fridge / freezer thermometer (about $5) to tell you what temperature is. The smell may be food spoiling from warm temperature.

My Danby fridge model DFF100C2BSSDD, the bottom shelf vegetables keep freezing and noticed some frost at the vents on upper shelf.

Increase the temperature inside by turning the knob anticlockwise. Put a thermometer in the fridge, it should be 3 or 4 degrees Centigrade.

Hi :) I'm just wondering how to set my temperature control on my Danby fridge ?

That is a question you should ask the former owner. Was it working properly when you bought it.Maybe they cannot even give you an answer.

I can't get a regular temperature in my old brown Danby Inglis frig . It is freezing every item in the frig even at the lowest ajustement. Can you help me?

Most likely temperature control thermostat needs replacing. Also check damper between fridge and freezer. If mechanical, adjust where less air is going in fridge section. If not mechanical, but electric, damper door may not be closing.

I have a Danby fridge with a numbered temperature dial. Does the higher the number mean a colder temperature? All my stuff keeps freezing

Keep your freezer to the mid point, and your ref to mid.
Wait 24hrs for results. If your refrigerator is still freezing, you may need a new thermostat. Get the model number, and go to searspartsdirect.com and look up the thermostat. Sometimes it's also referred as cold control.
