The settings are "relative". Someone with this fridge in Montana may need to run the same fridge with different settings than someone in Texas to get the same temperatures.
Many manufacturers recommend that the fresh food compartment should be 34 degrees F, and the freezer -10 to 0 degrees F. To set this properly, place a thermometer in the freezer (that can display temperatures as low as the desired temperature). Adjust the thermometer for the correct freezer temperature before going on to the fridge. A fully stocked freezer could take 12 hours or more for temperatures to stabilize after making changes to the thermostat. Once the -10 to 0 degree temperature has been achieved, set the fresh food compartment temperature.
Place a thermometer (that can display below freezing) in a 6 (or so) oz flexible plastic cup of water and place on a shelf in the fridge. A glass of water could break if the temperature gets below 32 degrees if the water turns to ice. The water acts as a buffer to rapidly changing temperatures when the door is opened to read the thermometer. If the fridge is "full", allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize before making changes.
If the fridge and freezer are empty, changes may be seen in just a few hours or less. Otherwise, wait the 12 / 24 hours for the freezer / fridge compartments.
Hi Linda. We have the identical model of Woods all-fridge and experienced this problem several times over the course of several months. Hopefully this is still timely.
The short answer is that the clear flexible-plastic drain tube that runs from the inside rear of the fridge down to the catch tray (underneath the cabinet, next to the floor, behind the kick-plate) is sufficiently plugged (with some kind of gunk, probably from a spill inside the fridge) to cause a back-up. I suppose the inner diameter of the tube is maybe 3/16" so it can easily get clogged. Consequently, the water runs down the inside back of the fridge & eventually ends up in the depressions below the crispers. In our case, after those depressions filled (and I hadn\'t noticed), the water would run out onto the floor.
Initially, I used a fine wire to poke some of the gunk out of the tube but I didn\'t get it all out. Just enuff to let some of the water get thru, but the tube would plug up again. After a few repeats of the problem, separated by a month or 2 each time, I decided a more "drastic" tube cleaning was required.
I suppose a good strong compressed air blast might clear the tube completely, but I didn\'t have that available so I had to use a semi-flexible wire & sorta gunk out the tube. It\'s been about 1.5 yrs. since that more thorough tube cleaning & the problem hasn\'t come back, so I think the tube got plugged from a spill in the fridge (which thankfully hasn\'t re-occurred... yet).
BTW, I don\'t have the manual either, but the lower part of the tubing is accessible from behind the fridge. I didn\'t pull it completely out (which might have disconnected it from its fitting), I simply reamed it out while it was in-place.
Is your circulating fan working?
Sometimes they stick and need a shot of WD 40 and then work
it back and forth a little until it wants to take off again. Keep me informed

Check the vents in the fridge side and close a little if you can. On the freezer side just for good measure>>>>
