How to Easily Adjust Your Car Clock: A Step-by-Step Guide

Just bought a brand new Dongfeng Hoang Huy truck from a reputable dealership on Nguyen Van Linh Street, Hanoi, and eager to set everything up yourself, starting with the clock? Or perhaps the clock on your trusty Hyundai truck is acting up after years of service? Don’t worry, adjusting your car clock is much simpler than you might think. This guide will provide you with easy-to-follow instructions on how to do it.

How to Adjust Your Car Clock

1. Locate the Adjustment Button

The location of the clock adjustment button varies depending on the car make and model. Typically, it’s located on the center console, near the display screen or steering wheel.

According to Mr. Nguyen Van A, a technician at Thanh Cong Auto Repair in Ha Dong, “Most modern vehicles have the clock adjustment button integrated into the steering wheel or near the gear shift. However, in some older models, finding this button might take a little more time.”

2. Understand the Symbols

The clock adjustment button is usually accompanied by intuitive symbols such as a clock icon, the word “Clock,” or “H/M.” Look closely to avoid confusing it with other function buttons.

3. Adjust the Hour and Minute

Use the adjustment buttons (usually a rotary knob or push buttons) to set the correct hour and minute. Some vehicles also allow you to choose between a 12-hour or 24-hour display format.
