As a beginner who just started driving an 8th-gen Civic, I find adjusting the time quite simple but you need to follow the steps carefully. First, sit in the driver's seat, insert the key into the ignition, and turn it to the ACC position—don't start the engine. Then, look at the center of the instrument cluster. There might be a small screen displaying the time, with buttons nearby labeled SET or ADJ. Press and hold for a few seconds until the time digits start blinking. Next, use the volume buttons on the left side of the steering wheel or the knob near the instrument cluster to adjust the hours and minutes. Press the up button to increase and the down button to decrease, adjusting step by step. Finally, confirm and save the settings. Having the correct time is crucial, especially for long trips or night driving, as it ensures accurate navigation and dashcam recordings, helping you avoid being late or getting lost. If you're unsure about the button locations, quickly check the user manual. The 8th-gen Civic's configurations vary, so button positions might differ slightly. Don't hesitate—once you're familiar, you won't need to adjust it often.
