Safe Refrigerator Temperature
For safety, it is important to verify the temperature of the refrigerator. Refrigerators should be set to maintain a temperature of 40 °F or below. An appliance thermometer can be kept in the refrigerator to monitor the temperature. This can be critical in the event of a power outage. When the power goes back on, if the refrigerator is still 40 °F, the food is safe. Foods held at temperatures above 40 °F for more than 2 hours should not be consumed. Appliance thermometers are specifically designed to provide accuracy at cold temperatures. Be sure refrigerator/freezer doors are closed tightly at all times. Don't open refrigerator/freezer doors more often than necessary and close them as soon as possible.

A safe tempreture for a fridge to be at is 3C, plus/minus 2 degrees. So, yeah, between 1 and 5C. So that's about 33F to 41F.
Trust me, I work in K.F.C.

between 2 and 5 degrees celcius. No more. Less than 2 and you may get freezing in vegetables which is undesirable. The freezer section should be less than -16 although this is less critical

This is a great question. I do not know the answer to that but you can bet I will go look at my refrigerator and see what the temperature is. Thanks for asking.
