Here are the specific steps to adjust the time on the Honda City: 1. Locate the time reset button on the right side of the City's dashboard - it's a small protruding knob on the instrument panel. A short press switches between time and odometer display. When time is shown, press and hold for 3 seconds. 2. When the hour display starts blinking, use short presses to adjust the hour. 3. Then press and hold for 3 seconds again to make the minute display blink, using short presses to adjust minutes. 4. Finally, press and hold for 3 seconds or do nothing to return to normal time display. 5. Note that the car's dashboard clock is an auxiliary function without high precision, so you can readjust whenever there's any time discrepancy.

Last time I adjusted the time on my City, I found it quite simple. Just press the small button on the left side of the dashboard a few times to enter the setting mode. The dashboard will flash the time display, and then you can use the button to adjust the hours and minutes up and down. Save the settings after confirming. After driving the car for five or six years, battery aging can sometimes mess up the time. If it keeps being inaccurate, you should check if the battery voltage is sufficient. I usually adjust it while waiting to refuel at the gas station, so it doesn’t waste time. During each maintenance, I ask the mechanic to check if the settings are normal, which saves a lot of hassle. When adjusting, just turn the key to the power-on state; there’s no need to start the engine, avoiding fuel waste—safe and convenient.

I figured out how to set the clock on the City. First, locate the instrument cluster control area behind the steering wheel, usually with two or three buttons. Repeatedly press one of them until the menu switches to the time setting option, then use the +/- buttons to adjust. Newer models might integrate this in the infotainment screen—navigate to system settings and find the clock section. In winter, the screen may respond slower due to cold, so be patient. While you're at it, check the date and temperature display too, to avoid distractions while driving. It's safest to do this when stopped at a red light. If buttons feel unresponsive, dust buildup could be the culprit; regular interior cleaning helps.

Adjusting the time on the Fit is quite straightforward: sit in the car, turn the key to the second position to power on, then press the button at the lower right corner of the dashboard three times. The time digits will start flashing—use the button to adjust the hours and minutes, then press and hold to confirm. When teaching a friend, I noticed the button on older models might stick, but pressing it a few extra times usually does the trick. Finish adjusting before driving to avoid the danger of doing it while on the move. Also, take a moment to check if other dashboard displays are normal, like the fuel reminder—the whole routine takes just two minutes.
