Video tutorial

The most readily available and certainly the most convenient information in a car is undoubtedly the clock. Twice a year, due to the change from standard time to daylight saving time and vice versa, it needs to be adjusted, but this may also be necessary if the battery that powers the vehicle is disconnected, resetting various information, including the time mentioned.

To set it, we need to: turn on the instrument panel, press the BC button multiple times until we reach the Set Info option, press BC again, and when we see the clock symbol, we proceed with the adjustment.
