How to Set the Clock on a Volkswagen Jetta

Model: Volkswagen Jetta MK 5, A5 - Years 2005-2010
Part: Clock

To update the hours and minutes on the vehicle, follow the simple instructions below: the digital clock is present both on the dashboard in the centre of the instrument panel and on the multimedia system display. If you update the time on the dashboard, it will automatically update on the central console as well. On the left side of the dashboard, below the rev counter, there is a button to press, which will cause the hour to start flashing. Use the button on the right side of the speedometer to adjust the hour. Pressing the left button a second time will cause the minutes to start flashing, and pressing the right button will allow you to modify them.
