brand & model number?

Model # would be helpful. Higher number is generally colder though! The picture of the thermometer with a high number would be confusing, however.

People that invent fridges are Arseholes. It’s a universal problem. Of course it should go from warmer to cooler but they never bloody do! At least have a dial that goes from red to blue. How hard is it? Damned fridge manufacturers!

Higher is colder. Suggest to set it in the middle at first. after 2 days adjust it up or down if needed. It takes about 2 days for the refrigerator to reach the new temperature setting.

Many Chinese-manufactured appliances now have this exact same problem: Turning a dial from the OFF position to the next value on the dial is essentially setting the appliance to the HIGHEST setting. Continuing to turn the dial allows for gradually LOWER settings, which means for a refrigerator that the WARMEST setting is the HIGHEST number, while the COLDEST setting is the LOWEST number that is not ZERO, or OFF. Same with Chinese-manufactured GAS stove burners: From OFF -> IGNITE -> HIGHEST to LOWEST (which provides a bit of a thrill when turning these OFF). With ELECTRIC stove burners it’s much more obvious where the LOWEST setting is, because for electric heating appliances there is a universal use of the symbol for MORE: the sideways-rising triangle.

GO CHINA! (CONServative policies of outsourcing manufacturing has made China so wealthy that China now has their own space station and they don’t have to do what USA’s NASA is forced to do: beg Russia (also a Communist nation) for rides to and from the shared “ISS”). CONServatives are actively elevating Communist nations above the USA!
