Insert the key, turn on the key to power up the vehicle, then activate the multifunction display. Once activated and in working status, you can see it on the display. Navigate to the upper bar and select "System," then press to confirm. Below that, there will be an option for "System Settings" and "Time." Click on "Time." Press and hold the "Set" button until the hour display starts flashing. Repeatedly press the "0.08" button until the desired hour is displayed. To adjust the minutes, press the "Set" button until the minutes start flashing. Repeatedly press the "0.0" button until the desired minutes are displayed.
I've been driving a 2020 Audi Q3 for almost two years and have set the time several times. The first thing I did when I got the new car was to adjust the time, as the factory-set time being inaccurate could affect navigation and Bluetooth pairing. The operation is quite simple: first, start the vehicle and make sure the screen lights up, then press the MENU button on the center console to enter the main menu. Find the system settings option, where there's a time and date section. Use the knob to scroll and adjust the hours and minutes, then confirm and exit. When traveling across time zones or during daylight saving time changes, I also adjust it casually. This setting is saved in the car and won’t be lost when the engine is turned off. Overall, Audi's interface is very user-friendly, and even a beginner can get the hang of it after one or two tries, without worrying about messing up other functions. Remember to check if the dashboard displays correctly after each adjustment to avoid affecting driving convenience.
As an automotive enthusiast, I've studied the various settings of the 2020 Audi Q3, including time adjustment. The key lies in the MMI multimedia system: After the vehicle is started, press the shortcut button on the steering wheel or touch the home screen on the center console to enter the settings menu. Under the general options, locate the time and date tab, then use your fingertip to swipe or rotate the dial for precise time input. You can enable the GPS synchronization feature; if your phone is connected to the internet, it will automatically calibrate, avoiding frequent manual adjustments. Once set, the impact isn't just on the clock display but also affects the accuracy of the trip log. I make it a habit to check quarterly to ensure the time is correct, enhancing the driving experience. The Audi Q3's design is highly intuitive, allowing you to complete the setup within minutes without any professional tools. Additionally, it's recommended to perform these operations while parked to avoid distracted driving—safety first.
