How to adjust the clock on a Honda Fit?
3 Answers
The steps to adjust the clock on a Honda Fit are: 1. Press the button on the instrument panel four times to switch to the time setting page; 2. When the time starts flashing, rotate the button to adjust the numbers; 3. After setting the correct time, press the button once more to confirm. Typically, the car's odometer can display two separate counts - one showing the vehicle's total mileage and another for trip counting, which can be toggled using the black button on the instrument panel. The Honda Fit has exterior dimensions of 4096mm in length, 1695mm in width, and 1525mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2530mm. The front track measures 1480mm while the rear track is 1465mm.
I used to drive a Fit as well, and adjusting the time requires a few steps. First, locate the small rectangular button at the lower left of the instrument panel, press and hold it for about five to six seconds until the hour digits start flashing, then release. At this point, short presses will adjust the hour, while long presses will change it rapidly. After setting the hour, press the button briefly once more to switch to minute adjustment—same method: short presses for fine-tuning, long presses for quick changes. Once everything is set, leave it untouched for about five seconds, and it will save automatically. Remember, the vehicle needs to be in the accessory mode (power on) but doesn’t require the engine to be running; otherwise, you won’t be able to adjust it. The Fit’s design is quite straightforward—much simpler than some cars that require dismantling the center console. If you make a mistake, just follow the steps again, but avoid doing this while driving.
Adjusting the time on the Fit is actually quite simple, with the key being to locate the adjustment button on the left side of the instrument panel. After powering on, press and hold the adjustment button until the hour display starts flashing. Short presses increase the hour by one each time, and holding it down speeds up the adjustment. The same method applies to adjusting the minutes—press once to switch to minute adjustment and proceed. Pay attention to the 24-hour format; for example, 2 PM should be set as 14:00, not 26:00. It's best to perform this adjustment while parked to avoid distractions. Some model years might require pressing additional buttons in combination, but this method works for most. If the screen doesn't respond, try turning off the car and disconnecting the power for a minute before restarting. It's a good idea to check the time accuracy during regular maintenance.
