Detailed explanation-1: -Freezer temperatures need to be 0 degrees F (-18 degrees C) or colder to keep food properly frozen. This temperature slows down the deterioration that naturally happens to food to keep it fresh for longer.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Ideal Freezer Temperature It’s pretty easy to remember: Your freezer temperature should be set to a chilly 0° Fahrenheit or below (-18° Celsius or below). Food stored at 0° Fahrenheit or below is safe to eat indefinitely (although quality and taste may be compromised as time passes).
Detailed explanation-3: -"1” is the warmest, “7” is the coldest, and turning the temperature dial to OFF shuts down the compressor. Set the dial to “4” and allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the temperature to your needs.
