If you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make it hotter.

2. Press and hold the HOUR INCREASE and the HOUR DECREASE pads at the same time for 5 seconds until the display changes.
3. Immediately, before display changes back, press the HOUR INCREASE or DECREASE pads to increase or decrease the temperature in 5 degree increments.The oven temperature can be increased up to 35°F.hotter or decreased 35°F. cooler.
If the oven adjustment is set cooler than the factory setting a minus sign “–” and the new temperature will appear in the display.
4. Wait several seconds for the control to automatically set and return to its previous setting.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

Thank you
Don't know model - range temperature feels too low, even though it says 350 (for example) on the thermostat and with the mercury thermometer that I bought to verify. Baked items (cookies, cakes) don't get cooked on the inside, so I leave them in the oven much longer (sometimes 30-45 mins) until they test done inside w/ fork. Outside is dry as a bone and crumbly. Oven temperature hasn't been right since I bought this range in 2005. I bought this model and manufacturer on good report for few service calls from Consumer Guide. I am not hapy with it.
I have a hotpoint rb757oj6wh range that heats too hot..How do you adjust the oven?
My Hotpoint oven (Even after replacing the bottom and top element) still doesn't work right. Like the person before the top of what your baking gets dry and the inside is undercooked. I have tried to set the temp using the knob on the oven, even replacing the thermostat, but nothing works. I'm at a loss
