I've driven many cars before, and adjusting the radio clock is something I've seen a lot. It's actually quite simple, and most cars operate the same way: First, look at the radio panel and find a button labeled something like CLOCK or SET. Press and hold it for a few seconds until the screen flashes, then the time will start to change. Next, use the knob or buttons to adjust the hours and minutes—for example, turning clockwise increases the hours. Once adjusted, press another button to confirm and save the settings, and you're done. Sometimes, the clock is inaccurate because the battery was disconnected or due to GPS signal interference, and resetting it can solve the problem. I recommend adjusting it only when the car is parked—don’t get distracted while driving, safety first. Also, the method varies slightly between car models. For example, when I drove a Toyota, the button layout was a bit quicker than in a Honda, but fundamentally, it’s all very easy. After doing it a few times yourself, you’ll get the hang of it. If you’re unsure, check the manual or ask a car-savvy friend.
