On the Opel Astra J, turn on the ignition and open the Settings menu from the central panel (CONFIG button and knob/OK on the console). On the screen, select Date/Time and enter the dedicated page: here you will see the options Set date, Set time format, and Set date format, as shown in the video.

Use the knob to navigate between the options, press to confirm, and first adjust the time format (12h/24h) and the date format. Then set the date and time by adjusting the values with the same knob and confirming with OK. Exit the menu: the Astra J's clock will be updated and the new time will appear on the display.
