How to adjust the time on Jinbei?
3 Answers
The car dashboard is a device that reflects the working conditions of various vehicle systems. Common indicators include the fuel indicator, washer fluid indicator, electronic throttle indicator, front and rear fog light indicators, and warning lights. The method to adjust the clock on the Jinbei T32 dashboard is as follows: 1. After turning on the ignition, the CLK button is used to display and set the time. 2. Press and hold the CLK button for about 5 seconds until the time display starts flashing. 3. Use the adjustment buttons (turn left to decrease, turn right to increase). 4. Press the hour or minute selection button. 5. After adjusting the time, press the CLK button again to confirm. 6. If no action is taken for a few seconds, the adjustment mode will exit automatically.
I just bought a used Jinbei van last week and had a bit of trouble setting the clock. Sitting in the car, I fumbled around the dashboard and found a small button labeled 'Clock.' Holding it down for a few seconds made the time on the screen start blinking. Then, I used the nearby adjustment knob (usually the volume knob) to change the hour. After it stopped blinking, pressing the button again let me adjust the minutes. At first, I was too hasty and kept pressing the button out of order, which messed up the sequence and made the time jump several hours. It took me five minutes to finally get it right. I recommend doing this while parked to avoid distractions while driving. If the buttons aren’t obvious, check the user manual—usually found in the glove compartment—or search online for forums specific to your Jinbei model, where experienced drivers often share tips. After a few tries, you’ll get the hang of it. Don’t worry; it’s common for beginners. The key is to take it slow and stay calm.
I've played around with adjusting the clock on many Jinbei models, and it's quite simple, depending on the configuration. For older Jinbei models, there's usually a clock icon button on the right side of the dashboard—press and hold to activate settings, then use the knob to adjust the numbers. For newer versions with touchscreens, find the system settings in the central control menu and tap into the clock option to make adjustments. I prefer the manual transmission models for their straightforward, no-nonsense operation. Always do this when the car is turned off or idling to avoid accidentally triggering other functions. If you can't find the entry point, don't force it—recall the year and model of your purchase, as methods are similar across common Jinbei series like the Hiace. Stay patient during setup, test if the display is accurate after adjustment, and usually, it works on the first try—no need to repeatedly press and risk damaging the buttons.
