I only have that box in the fridge, its only big enough for about 3 Pizzas and some Ice for some drinks, thats all I need with a shop 1 min away!  :D
Thats an ice making compartment, and not suitable for keeping food frozen for more than a couple of days I'm afraid.

Blimey, can you still get those type of fridges  :-/

But TB is correct, I doubt its any colder than -5/-6C and no good for keeping food frozen in  ;)

Ours has got a thermometer type dial built into the door.  Just went and looked - no numbers on it apart from 0oC, but the pointer is pointing to the bit it's supposed to be pointing at.

But it must be OK, 'cos nobody's been poisoned, and we've been using it for 13 years. 

Following a complaint from the management about the standard of cleanliness in the kitchen, the switch for the freezer accidentally got turned off (due to over-enthusiastic use of a Spontex cloth under the toaster - don't ask).  We aren't sure exactly how many hours (days?) elapsed before this was noticed.  It provided me with an opportunity to dispose of some of the more unprepossessing looking items which had been squirreled away in there and hoarded for years, but, to be honest, almost everything in there had stayed frozen, and none of the stuff we re-froze seems to have suffered appreciably.

I've just had to turn mine down a tad  ;D

It seems it takes it a few days to go even colder.....after a week being set on max......the temp guage was sailing past the -25C mark  :o
