Thermostats on fridges with adjustable temp settings are pre-set at factory for specific temp range and calibrated for those temps based on OEM position of thermistor on fin.
Thermistor just senses the fin temp so when the pre-set temp is reach the thermostat shuts off 'heating'
Auto Temp Control uses the thermistor as the setting for temps.
Moving thermistor UP/Colder (warmer fin) thermostat continues 'heating cycle' until temp is reached .....longer heating cycles
Moving thermistor DOWN/WARMER (colder fin) thermostat continues 'heating cycle' until temp is reached.....shorter heating cycles
Overall affect is 6*F-8*F

IF fridge uses an 'Auto Temp Control' then sliding thermistor Up/Colder or DOWN/Warmer
Sliding thermistor (UP/DOWN) on the fin can affect overall temp by few degrees IF the fridge model does NOT have adjustable temp settings
Doesn't have same affect on those with adjustable temp settings...those temp settings are pre-set and just use the fin temp as sensor for that pre-set temp
