One reason you may need to adjust the clock in your car is the transition from daylight saving time to standard time once a year. Additionally, if you disconnect the battery terminals of the vehicle, the clock may reset, requiring adjustment.

For the vehicle in question, restore the time as follows: with the instrument cluster on, press the multi-page button on the left side of the steering wheel, enter the Menu, and use the arrow buttons to select Time Setting. Now, use the + and - buttons to set the hours and minutes; for the analogue clock, press the R button located on the outer left side of the aforementioned cluster, and it will automatically acquire the correct time.
