Peugeot 301 adjusts the time by: 1. Click the vehicle's one-button start button to start the vehicle engine and power on the vehicle, otherwise the time cannot be adjusted; 2. Press and hold the operating lever under the instrument panel for three seconds, and the minutes will flash to adjust the time. The body size of the Peugeot 301 is: length 4442 mm, width 1748 mm, height 1476 mm, wheelbase 2652 mm, and fuel tank capacity 53 liters. The Peugeot 301 is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated inline 4-cylinder engine, with a maximum power of 86 kW, a maximum power speed of 6000 rpm, a maximum torque of 150 Nm, a maximum torque speed of 4000 rpm, and is matched with a 5-speed manual transmission.
When I first drove the Peugeot 301, I also wondered how to adjust the time. It's actually quite simple. First, sit in the car and turn on the power (no need to start the engine), just make sure the dashboard lights up. Then press the MENU button on the center console. Some models have a scroll wheel or buttons on the right side of the steering wheel—slowly navigate to the settings option. Once in the time settings, use the rotary knob or up/down buttons to adjust the hours and minutes. Don't forget to press the confirm button to save after adjusting. The whole process takes just a minute or two—no need to rush and press randomly, as accidental mistakes might require starting over. I make it a habit to adjust it every six months. During daylight saving time changes or if the battery is aging, the time might reset. It's a good opportunity to check the vehicle's battery condition to ensure settings are saved properly, which is important for functions like the driving record.
From a mechanical maintenance perspective, adjusting the time on the Peugeot 301 is quite user-friendly. After starting the vehicle, press the settings icon in the lower left corner of the central display to enter the main menu. Then select System Settings or a similar option, where you'll find the date and time settings. Use the control stalk on the steering wheel to scroll left and right to select the hour, press to enter and adjust the minutes, then confirm to save. The key point is that the system response isn't very fast, so be patient during operation and avoid repeated pressing. I've also noticed that time adjustment can sometimes be affected by GPS signal interference. If not connected to the network, it might be inaccurate, so it's best to manually set it in an underground garage in such cases. The entire process involves electronic systems, and improper operation could blow a fuse, so strictly follow the manual to minimize accidents.
I think setting the time is important for new car owners to avoid being late for work due to an inaccurate alarm clock. In the Peugeot 301, first sit in the driver's seat and turn on the power, then press the SETUP button on the central control screen to enter the menu. After finding the time option, use your finger to swipe or press the buttons to adjust the numbers. It's a simple task that can be done in five minutes. Remember to check regularly, as incorrect time settings can affect navigation prompts or other electronic functions—safety first. Based on my experience, test the audio or system after adjusting to ensure everything is working properly.
