How to Adjust the Clock on MG Cars?
2 Answers
To adjust the dashboard time on an MG car, briefly press the trip computer control button to navigate to the option following the vehicle travel time. When you briefly press the button for the seventh time and only a clock display appears, then press and hold the trip computer control button until the clock digits start flashing. At this point, briefly press the button to begin adjusting the time.
Adjusting the clock on a MG car is actually quite straightforward. I drive a MG MG5 myself, and I usually do it using the steering wheel buttons. First, you need to start the car and let the engine run. Then, press the multifunction control button on the steering wheel—usually located on the left or right side—there's a menu button. Click into it, select the settings option, find the clock or time setting, and use the up and down buttons to adjust the hours and minutes. Press OK to confirm and save. The whole process takes no more than two minutes and doesn’t require touching the central control screen, which is quite convenient. If you encounter issues, such as slow button response, it might be due to low battery or system lag—restarting is recommended. I’ve also noticed that the clock needs adjusting once a year when daylight saving time changes, otherwise the time difference can affect navigation accuracy. Overall, referring to the owner’s manual can save you trouble, and never operate it while driving—distracted driving is dangerous.
