To set the year, month, and day on the 2013 Ford Mondeo Fashion Edition, locate the MENU button on the car's center console. Press it to access the time settings, then set the correct date. Below are specific details about the 2013 Ford Mondeo: 1. Body Dimensions: The new Mondeo measures 4860mm in length, 1854mm in width, and 1480mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2850mm. 2. Powertrain Configuration: The vehicle is equipped with a 1499ml turbocharged engine, model CAF479WQ4. It delivers a maximum horsepower of 182Ps, a maximum power output of 134Kw, a maximum torque of 243NM, and a maximum torque speed range of 1750-4500rpm.
I remember setting the date on the 2013 Ford Mondeo was quite easy. First, start the vehicle's engine and keep it running so the system can function. Then use the multi-function buttons on the left side of the steering wheel, usually the one with arrows, and press up or down to bring up the main menu on the instrument panel. Look for the 'Settings' or 'Vehicle Settings' option, and after entering, select 'Time & Date' or a similar name. At this point, the screen will display settings for year, month, and day—adjust them slowly using the buttons, and remember to confirm and save after making changes. Don’t rush during the setup; if you make a mistake, you’ll have to start over. Once the date is set, the onboard clock will be more accurate, which helps remind you of regular maintenance. If the menu doesn’t respond, check if the vehicle is fully started or refer to the owner’s manual to avoid incorrect operations.
From my experience, the date setting for the 2013 Mondeo is located in the steering wheel control area. After starting the car (don't turn it off), use the arrow keys and OK button on the steering wheel to navigate to the settings menu. Find the date option and adjust it manually. Save after adjustment—it's quite simple. Note this affects onboard recording functions; for example, trip statistics will display accurate timestamps, making driving references more convenient. Incorrect date settings may cause delayed warning lights—I recommend completing this in one go to avoid repeated adjustments. Check battery status: new batteries might not require setting, but older vehicles occasionally lose data.
