New Focus time adjustment: There is a SET button and an adjustable regulator that can be moved up and down on the turn signal lever. Turn the knob on the turn signal switch to the menu button. Press the SET button at the top and set the time in CLOCK. The specific steps are as follows: 1. First turn the key to the II position; 2. Move the regulator downward until "SET" is displayed on the instrument panel; 3. Press the SET button; 4. Continue to move the regulator downward until the indicator bar is on "CLOCK"; 5. Press the SET button; 6. At this time, you can use the regulator to adjust the year up or down. After adjustment, press the SET button to continue to adjust the month, as well as the hour and minute. 7. After adjustment, press the SET button and select "EXIT" downward to return.
When I first got my new Focus, figuring out the time setting was quite interesting. Generally, you start the car first, then locate the vehicle settings menu on the center console screen. The position might vary slightly depending on the model year, but it's usually found within the system options. Tap open the time settings, and you'll see the hour and minute sections. Adjust them bit by bit using the knob or touchscreen arrows—don't rush, just try a few times. At first, I worried that randomly pressing buttons might cause issues, but it's actually quite safe, and you can get it done before turning off the car. By the way, if Bluetooth music keeps popping up error messages, checking whether the time is synchronized is also a crucial step, as it can affect other functions. When driving, I always pay attention—having the correct time makes navigation more accurate, so I don’t have to keep checking my phone and wasting time. Once you get used to it, it becomes much easier. Don’t forget that operating under brighter light at night makes it clearer. In short, practice a few more times, and you’ll get the hang of it—the process is simple, so don’t overthink it.
