I'd just like to point out that the temperature set by the console is displayed in the Kelvin scale and the temperature displayed by the HUD is in the Celsius scale.
Edit: Just to clarify, I'll explain the difference between the scales. The units on each scale are exactly the same, they are called "degrees" and exactly 1 degree on the Kelvin scale is exactly 1 degree Celsius. This is the symbol for degrees: °
The practical difference between the two is that absolute zero is 0K, -273.15°C.
Water freezes at 0°C/273K and boils at 100°C/373K (at standard atmospheric pressure). To convert between the two, add or subtract 273.15 (add if converting from Celcius to Kelvin, subtract if converting from Kelvin to Celcius). If you set an elements temperature to 9999K, it will show up on the 'heads up display' as 9725.86°C.
Try to remember that the Kelvin scale does not have negative numbers as it starts at absolute zero (also sometimes known as absolute cold as it is the coldest [known] temperature and is currently unreachable by human efforts).

Actually, lab scientists have managed to cool matter to a few billionths of a degree above absolute zero, but that's beside the point. :D
