Your temperatures look OK if anything the fresh food may be a little cold.
So your compressor must be running as it is what cools the unit.

I could not find any info on the given model number.
Please check it.

Could be that the unit uses a variable compressor with an inverter.
Basically the compressor runs all the time but is variable speed.
