An object of the present invention is to provide an electronic device in which a temperature control using a cooling fan can be made more efficiently and more stably and a method for controlling temperature of a device.The device includes the fan, a measurement unit, and a control unit which controls a rotation speed of the fan based on the measured temperature. The control unit stores a plurality of measured temperatures and a normal temperature range for each measurement unit, determines the presence or absence of a temperature increasing trend, shortens a time interval when it is determined that increases, determines whether or not the plurality of temperatures are included in the normal range when it is determined that does not increase, prolongs when the all are included in the normal range, and does not change when at least one is not included in the normal range.
