On my home refrigerator: Amana Temp*Assure, bottom freezer style, I can't seem to adjust the crisper drawers correctly. The fruit/vegetables in there always freeze. What is my problem? What is the right coldest/warmest setting? Is all the way to the asterisk (snowflake mark) i.e. moving the slider all the way to the right supposed to be the colder setting, or the warmer setting? The dial goes from 1 to 7. Tried both.
