Oven Heating To The Wrong Temperature

I have a model #FEF31613SF Frigidaire stove. The oven is 25 degrees too high. When the temperature is set for 300 and the light goes off it's 325 degrees F. How do I adjust temperature?

It's quite simple to recalibrate an oven so that it runs at the correct temperature!

I would just leave it alone. 25 degrees is not a huge variation in temperature. It will not matter when cooking most foods. It may make a very slight difference in baking, so you can make the adjustment yourself. If a cake recipe calls for 350 degrees, set your oven to 325.

I have had the last two electric ovens in the house we live in be "off" in temperature control in the oven. For example I set the dial to 375 and the oven heats up over that.
