Is refrigerator thermostat colder set to Zero 0 or to Seven 7?

Hello, silly question, is the refrigerator thermostat colder setting closer to Zero 0 or to Seven 7? I have a 3-way small refrigerator. I'm using the 120v setting currently. Thank you.

It should be colder set to seven, but to be sure we really need to know the make and model of the fridge.

Do you have a popup, A-frame or truck camper, since it not listed in your profile?

These are normally the only RVs with 3-way fridges.

Usually the higher the number the colder the setting is.

To be sure that one setting is colder than the other, why not place a thermometer inside, set to zero and check and record temperature after two hours. Then put setting on seven, wait a few hours and check the temperature again, then you will know for sure which setting is the coldest without guessing.

Agreed - seven should be coldest setting, just like your fridge at home.

I think I would look in the owners manual. If you don't have one go to the manufacturer's website and look up your model there.
