How to set the clock on the Smart Fortwo

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Clock

To set the clock of the Smart Fortwo, we start by turning on the car's engine, press the button to the left of the odometer until the clock with the total kilometers of the car appears underneath it, then hold down the button to the left of the odometer until the two dots in the center of the clock start flashing; when the two dots flash, we can press the button to the left of the odometer, then hold it down to scroll through the minutes and then set the time to the desired hour. Once the dots stop flashing, the time has been set and we move on to set the clock next to the tachometer: press the button to the left behind the clock to move the minute hand counterclockwise to the desired hour, while if we adjust too far back with the left button we can scroll clockwise. If the original radio is installed, the time will be set automatically with the clock setting of the speedometer, while (as in the video) if a non-original radio is installed, you have to enter the radio settings to set the clock.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
