For perishable foods, the maximum temperature would be 40°F (4.4°C). But vacuum-packaged seafood should not be above 38°F (3.3°C) due to the possibility of the formation of the botulism toxin.
Normally, higher settings will have the refrigerator run more efficiently since it won't have to run as hard to maintain the temperature. But higher temperatures are not as safe nor do they keep foods as long as colder temperatures.

Can you increase the temperature of room by opening the door of refigerator?
By opening the door of refrigerator, we can decrease the temperature of a room. A refrigerator works by taking heat from its interior and radiating it away from the coil at the back so the net effect of a refrigerator in a room with its door open should be no change in temperature. However, we should remember that a fridge has an electric motor in it and as all machinery is never 100% efficient there should be a heat gain from having it working. So yes opening the door of a fridge would increase the temperature of the room.
