And you're fortunate that the clock/time still functions. I believe this function is necessary for the P7 feature to work.
I agree with your estimated date of manufacture; however, as I read the numbers on the Data Plate they do not agree with the information that GE provides in their table of date codes (link provided). During the 60's GE's serial numbers went wack-o and can be difficult to pin down. It is possible that the "E" in the Model Number (J349E) indicates 1969. The 1972 GE catalog contains a footnote that in the second quarter of 1972 the cabinet design and the model numbers for the ranges would begin to transition to a newer design. This range is the older design, so it's not likely that it was built after 1972.
Watch Ebay for Use and Care Guides. I doubt that you will find one printed specifically for this range, but more likely it will cover a multitude of models.

It's a bottom of the line average, to meh dishwasher. GE marketed them under both the GE & Hotpoint brand and were very popular builder grade appliances for starter homes and apartment buildings from the early 1980s through sometime in the 1990s. At some point in the later 1980s they were the subject of a safety recall due to fire hazard due to a component in the heat/cool dry switch. Yours appears to be more of a rocker switch though. The original faulty design was a switch that slid horizontally rather than vertically. To get around just recalling the dishwashers the "fix" was to render the switch such that it didn't have the hot dry option activated, just a no heat dry all the time.

Hi Lisa, so glad to know that our former pink Hotpoint "Beulah" is still cooking with you! We got her from Walt up near Rochester. We really miss having a 40" double oven but am now restoring the '57 canary yellow 40" GE Liberator that we sold when we got Beulah from Walt, then serendipitously got back last year! Enjoy your cute new cabin!
