Video tutorial

In this video, you will learn how to adjust the mechanical analogue clock present in the Volkswagen Lupo. On the plastic frame surrounding the clock glass, you will find two small holes positioned at 4 and 8 o'clock relative to the dial. They are marked with a + and - or with an 'h' and 'm'. You will need a thin tool: ideally a toothpick or a very thin screwdriver.

Insert the tool into the hole marked with 'h' or + and press until you see the hour hand move forward by one hour with each press. Continue until you set the current hour; then move to the other hole and do the same for the minutes.

Use gentle pressure to avoid damaging the internal mechanism; be patient, as it is a mechanical movement.
