The time can be adjusted directly on the center console. There are three buttons on the left side of the center console: the top one is the reset button, the middle is the option button, and the bottom is the adjustment button. Press the middle button to adjust to DISPLAY-ADJUST. The first number is the hour. Press the bottom button and then the middle button to confirm. After selecting the MENU item, press the OK button. Use the left and right buttons to adjust the numbers if they are incorrect, then press OK to complete the adjustment.

I've been driving the older Peugeot 408 for several years, and adjusting the time is indeed not difficult to operate. First, make sure the car is started or the key is turned to the ACC position to power on. Then, look for the button group on the right side of the steering wheel or the knob below the dashboard near the small screen. Press and hold the setting button for about 3 seconds until the screen flashes and displays the time option. Next, use the directional buttons or the plus/minus buttons to adjust the hour part, and press confirm to adjust the minutes. After adjusting, remember to press return to save. If the time is inaccurate, it may affect the driving records and alarm system, so it's recommended to check it once a month to prevent false alarms. If the buttons don't respond, it might be due to too much dust or contact issues—just gently wipe the buttons. Some owners have reported unstable operation in humid weather, so it's best to handle it on a sunny day. The overall process is simple but requires attention to detail. If you're not confident in your hands-on skills, referring to the user manual is more reassuring.

What are the reasons for an automatic transmission car stalling while driving?

Reasons for an automatic transmission car stalling while driving: 1. Generator failure: All electrical equipment in an automatic transmission car is powered by the battery, and the battery's power comes from the generator. Once the generator fails, the ignition system loses power, causing the car to stall; 2. Ignition system failure: The most easily damaged parts in the ignition system are the spark plugs, followed by the ignition coils and cylinder wires. If the spark plugs or ignition coils of two or more cylinders fail, the car will stall; 3. Fuel system failure: If the fuel pressure is too low, it can cause the car to stall. Fuel system failures manifest as fuel line blockages, fuel pump failures, and pressure pump failures. Areas prone to blockages include the fuel pump filter screen, fuel filter, and fuel injectors.

Is Automatic Transmission the Same as Continuously Variable Transmission?

Automatic transmission is not the same as continuously variable transmission (CVT). CVT refers to a specific type of transmission, and not all automatic cars use CVT transmissions. There are three common types of automatic transmissions in vehicles: automatic transmission (AT), continuously variable transmission (CVT), and dual-clutch transmission. The CVT transmission is a relatively simple automatic transmission. Inside a CVT transmission, there are two pulleys and a steel belt. The steel belt can move on the pulleys, allowing the transmission to vary its gear ratio. During gear shifting, CVT transmissions exhibit almost no jerking sensation. Using this type of transmission can improve shift smoothness and enhance fuel economy.

Should You Still Apply the Handbrake When Shifting to P in an Automatic Transmission?

Automatic transmission vehicles should still apply the handbrake when shifting to P, otherwise it may cause damage to the locking mechanism of the P gear. All automatic transmission cars are equipped with a P gear, which is the parking gear used when stopping and turning off the engine. If you do not shift into P before stopping and turning off the engine, the car cannot be turned off normally. After shifting into P, the locking mechanism inside the automatic transmission will lock the gears of the transmission, which is equivalent to indirectly locking the wheels. Even if the handbrake is not applied, the car will not move. However, it is still necessary to firmly apply the handbrake after shifting into P, otherwise it may cause excessive force on the P gear locking mechanism, which will reduce the service life of the locking mechanism.

How is the speed controlled in an automatic transmission?

Automatic transmission speed control method: You can lightly lift the throttle pedal at the appropriate time, and the transmission will automatically upshift, keeping the engine at a lower RPM at the same speed. Then, by gently pressing the throttle pedal to continue accelerating, the transmission will not immediately downshift. This is a "preemptive upshift, delayed downshift" function designed by engineers to prevent frequent gear changes. Driving an automatic transmission car does not require manual shifting, as the computer automatically shifts gears based on the depth of the throttle pedal press. In other words, controlling the speed in an automatic transmission car simply requires managing the throttle pedal well. Over time, you will naturally develop a feel for the car.
