My Fridigare is 40-42 deg but the freezer is working just fine. Why is that?

Answer by  malone (4817)

The normal temperature of the food storage area of a fridge is about 40 degrees. Food freezes around 32 degrees, and you don't want that. If the fridge is 40 degrees and the freezer is freezing food, your appliance is working perfectly.

If the temp is rising in both the refrigerator and the freezer, call a repair man. Obviously, there's something wrong with the compressor.

You should first check the users manuals with fridges, sometimes they can vary on the automatic temperature when they come out of the factory. It is very easy to adjust temperature by using the cold or colder knob located either on the side or the ceiling of the fridge. Contact your service man if there are more problems.
