Method to adjust the time on the Fit dashboard: 1. Press and hold the AM/FM button until you hear a beep; 2. The time will start flashing, then use the hour and minute buttons to adjust the time; 3. Press the AM/FM button to confirm. The Fit is a compact car under GAC Honda, with body dimensions of 4109mm in length, 1694mm in width, and 1537mm in height. The Fit is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, with an L-type cylinder arrangement, paired with a CVT transmission. Its suspension system features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension.
I've driven quite a few Fits from older to newer models, and adjusting the clock is actually pretty straightforward. First, sit in the car and turn the key to the ACC position to power up the instrument panel without starting the engine - it's safer this way. Look for a small button near the instrument cluster or steering wheel labeled Reset or Trip, press and hold it for a few seconds until the time digits start blinking, indicating you've entered setup mode. Then briefly press the button to switch between hour adjustment, press a few more times to change the value, and use the same method to adjust minutes. Finally, long-press to confirm, and the time will update. Remember to operate while parked to avoid distractions while driving. This method works for most Fit model years - if it doesn't work the first time, trying a few more times won't damage the car. It's quite convenient.
As a new car owner, I was a bit confused the first time I adjusted the time on my Fit, but later found the method to be straightforward. After starting the vehicle, there's usually a button on the dashboard with a clock symbol. Press and hold it for a few seconds until the time starts flashing, then you can adjust it. Use short presses to switch between hours and minutes, and press once to increase the value or press again to decrease. It automatically saves after confirmation. Remember to turn off the engine for a more stable operation, and with accurate time, your navigation and radio won't have errors. Newbies should refer to the user manual or check the prompts on the central control screen—practice once, and you'll get the hang of it.
When driving my family around daily, I always make sure the time is set accurately to be punctual. Adjusting the clock on the Fit is simple: sit in the driver's seat, turn on the power but don't start the engine; locate a small button on the center console, usually the Trip button, hold it for a few seconds to enter the settings. Then press briefly to adjust the hours and minutes, and hold again to confirm. The whole process is quick and doesn't compromise safety.
