How do you adjust the time in the Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini R53, R52, R50 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Clock

In this tutorial we can see how to adjust the time in the Mini Cooper, an extremely simple and quick operation, to be carried out for example after the switch to daylight saving time or after disconnecting the battery. First of all, let's go inside the cabin, then insert the key and turn on the instrument panel. Then reach the clock using the indicated button, hold it down to activate the adjustment and wait a few seconds to move on to setting the time. At this point, all that's left is to adjust the hour, move on to the minutes always waiting a few seconds and, in the same way, adjust them and then save the setting.
