How to adjust the time on the Mini Cooper.

Model: Mini Mini R56, R57, R55 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Clock

To set the time on the Mini Cooper, start by turning on the car's instrument panel without starting the engine. Press the button on the left end of the turn signal lever until the "set/info" message appears. Hold down the same button, then press it again until the clock symbol with the hour appears. Continue holding down the button until a square appears around the hour. Press the same button until you reach the desired hour. Once the hour is set, wait a few seconds for the minutes adjustment (indicated by a square around the minutes). Press the same button until you reach the desired minutes. Once the minutes are set, wait a few seconds for the square around the minutes to disappear and the "set" message to reappear. Now, set the time on the central dial: press the "menu" button, scroll with the dial until you see "config", press the dial to confirm, rotate the dial until you see "time", press the dial to confirm. Press the button just below the "hours" label to adjust the hour, rotate the dial to set the hour, press the button just below the minutes to adjust them as well. If you want to set the date, follow the same procedure with the buttons below the labels "mm" for months, "dd" for days, and "yy" for years. Finally, you can turn off the instrument panel, turn it back on, and check if the settings are saved.
