Correct temperature for fridge ???

I have been pondering this for some time ... I have a fridge thermometer with the 'safe' level identified (between 0 and 5 deg C). To get that reading I set my fridge accordingly. However, I then find the stuff in the salad drawers freezes
If I turn the fridge higher (warmer ), the temperature goes up to 10 deg C ... out of the 'safe' range, but salad remains intact.
Should I be trying to get the 'safe' range in the salad bins rather than the main part of the fridge ?
