How to Adjust the Time on a Ford Classic Focus?
2 Answers
To adjust the time on the dashboard of a Classic Focus, first turn on the ignition switch to display the time on the dashboard. Press and hold the protruding button in the middle of the dashboard for 3 seconds until the clock starts blinking. Once the clock is blinking, press the button up or down to change the time. Adjust the clock according to the actual time when this happens. If you are unsure about adjusting the car's time, the simplest method is to refer to the car's user manual. Below are the general steps for adjusting the car clock: 1. Turn the key to the II position. 2. Push the adjuster downward until "SET" is displayed on the dashboard, then press the SET button. 3. Continue pushing the adjuster downward until the indicator bar reaches "CLOCK," then press the SE button. 4. Now, use the adjuster to move up or down to set the year. After setting the year, press the SET button to proceed to setting the month, followed by the hour and minute. 5. After completing the adjustments, press the SET button and select "EXIT" to return.
Last time I drove my friend's 2013 classic Focus, I also encountered this issue. To adjust the time, you need to press both the 'SET' and 'INFO' buttons on the dashboard simultaneously for 3 seconds. Release the buttons when you see the hour number flashing, then press the 'INFO' button to adjust the hour. After confirmation, it will automatically switch to the minutes. Adjusting the minutes follows the same procedure. For older models with a four-way button on the right side of the steering wheel, you can directly enter the time setting interface using the right arrow button, which is more convenient than pressing the combination buttons. Remember, the time won’t reset after turning off the engine and power, but you’ll need to reset it if the battery is disconnected. After adjusting, it’s best to lock the car and wait for ten minutes to check if the settings are saved successfully.
