How to Adjust the Time on a 2021 Audi Q3?
2 Answers
Turn on the ignition switch. Press and hold the protruding button in the middle of the instrument panel for 3 seconds. Once the hour digits start flashing, you can press the button up or down to adjust. After setting the hour, wait for 2 seconds until the minute digits start flashing, then continue pressing the button up or down to adjust. Once both the hour and minute are set, the time on the instrument panel will flash simultaneously. At this point, simply wait for 5 seconds to complete the process.
When I first bought the 2021 Audi Q3, adjusting the time was quite a complex process, but I figured it out after some exploration. Start the engine and ensure the vehicle is fully powered on, then locate the round rotary button on the center console touchscreen—press it to enter the main menu. In the displayed menu, select the 'Settings' option, then scroll to the 'Vehicle' or 'General Settings' section and click into the time and date options. Turn off the auto-sync feature to manually set the hours and minutes; use the rotary knob or touchscreen to adjust the numbers and save. If you accidentally select the wrong mode or the time is inaccurate, it might be due to weak GPS signal—try opening the window or changing locations before reattempting. The whole process takes just a few minutes, but remember to check if the instrument panel updates the display afterward, as accurate time is crucial for safe navigation while driving.
