How to Set the Clock on the Opel Zafira

Setting the clock to the current Italian time on an Opel Zafira model B is a very simple operation, also made easier by our short instructional video. The first step is to turn on the instrument panel and then press the SETTING button located on the central dashboard. Once inside the menu, use the buttons to navigate to the clock setting.
