The temp on my fridge/freezer went from -2 to 71 degees. How can I get it back to zero?

Hello, if the temperature control settings are not allowing you to set it to the temperature you want, or you have it set to your desired temperature but it's not cooling properly please contact the manufacturer Edgestar for assistance with troubleshooting or repair.

I don't know, but mine stopped working when temps got below 0 outside recently

My unit is behaving exactly as what you (and the user manual) describe. I set the thermostat temp to a comfortable 68 degrees. The unit heats up to +4, which is 72 degrees, and then it shuts off. That's great. However, as soon as my room temperature drops to 71 degrees, which is about 2 minutes later, the unit kicks back on in LOW mode. This is WAY too sensitive. When the room temperature reaches 72 degrees again, which is about 30 seconds later, the unit shuts off again. The unit cycles between 71 and 72 degrees, and therefore, turns on and off continuously every couple of minutes or so. Mind you, neither 71 nor 72 is my desired temperature. The constant clicking on/off makes this feature unusable. It is quite ironic that this feature is called Save Smart. It should be renamed "Waste Dumb" in my opinion.

Unplug the freezer and wait 5 minutes. Then set control to coldest setting plug in.

Have set top to 66 and bottom to 56. The fridge is inside a cabinet that has an ambient temperature higher than the room (likely 80 degrees). Once the initial settings were achieved, the temperatures have remained constant.

I bought a cheap fan and put it in the back of the unit to circulate the air. It dropped the temp about 6%'s. I bought an USB fan with a power converter and ran the wires into the fridge between the door. http://www.amazon.com/IO-Crest-Powered-Desktop-SY-ACC65055/dp/B006L6ZL8I/ref=pd_sim_pc_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1XSBKX56VKJV58VX1VF7

I believe there is a dial on the back of the unit that let's you adjust the cold temp. Please google the model and unit number and you will find a PDF manual. I won't be back in our office for a while

Sounds like you have a bad control board. The temp can be set on both the front face of the unit and with the remote control. Take it back and get a new one!!

I just checked the thermostat and it only goes down to 45 degrees. If you are trying to use this for freeze protection, you might look into a space heater with a built-in digital thermostat.

Sorry can't help. I keep mine in my basement all year long. The coldest temperature is probably 65 degrees.

Low temperature feature - continues to operate until temperature reaches 44F (6.6C)

As it is a fridge, its either turn up the temperature or unplug it.I think it defeats the purpose of a fridge then......

Wish I could help, but I returned my unit because it was DOA.I replaced it with a Duxtop 8100MC. I don't think the temp goes that low.

I put mine in the freezer overnight and it gave a good reading. Then I left it out on the cupboard to check it for accuracy and it came up to the furnace's room temperature to the exact degree. So then I put it in the 'frig. That seemed to take a little longer - a day or so. I'm very happy!

I solved that problem by putting the maker in the freezer overnight. Don't know why that worked, but it did--the low temperature broke the vacuum seal(?)

Turn it on and close your safe. Come back a few hours later and see if it is warmer inside. Using a small thermometer should show a slight increase of temperature inside. Of course the more you open it to check, the less effective it will be. Kind of like your refrigerator but in reverse.

To maintain the proper temperature setting in your freezer you need a freezer thermometer. They are cheap and available in almost any kitchenware department. You can then choose whatever freezer setting that keeps the already frozen food at 0 degrees. If you are freezing any quantity of food you should bring your freezer temp to at least -10 degrees. Once your food is completely frozen you can reduce your setting to maintain the 0 degree temperature. Check your thermometer and set your freezer temperature setting accordingly. The fuller your freezer, the better it will hold the temperature and run more economically.
