How to Set the Time on a Peugeot 308?

[StArabella]

The method to set the time on a Peugeot 308 is as follows: 1. There are three buttons on the left side of the display. Press the second button until "aff" appears; 2. Press the third button to adjust the date. After setting the date, press the second button to confirm; 3. Hold the adjustment lever for more than two seconds. After the time starts flashing, you can adjust the hour. Quickly press and release the lever to set the hour. After the hour is set, wait until the minutes start flashing, then adjust the minutes using the same method. The Peugeot 308 has a body size of 4590mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1488mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2675mm. It is equipped with a 1.2L turbocharged engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission, delivering a maximum power of 85 kilowatts.

My old Peugeot 308 has been running for six years, and I've figured out the time adjustment process after several attempts. First, power on the car without starting the engine, then press and hold the menu button on the center console for about three seconds until the instrument cluster displays setup options. Use the up/down buttons on the right side of the steering wheel to select the clock icon, press OK to enter, then use the left/right buttons to toggle between hours and minutes. After setting the correct numbers, long-press OK to save. For newer models with touchscreens, it's more convenient to find the time and date settings directly in the system menu. I recommend doing this at night for better screen visibility - once I messed up the minutes during daytime adjustment. After finishing, remember to turn off and restart the car to confirm, and check if the date is correct too.

Adjusting the time on the Peugeot 308 follows the same logic as the music volume control area. I usually operate it after starting the car. First, press the MODE button on the left side of the steering wheel to switch to the settings menu, then confirm the time option by pressing the central dial. For newer models, you might directly tap the screen to enter vehicle settings. The key to adjusting the time is using the scroll wheel behind the steering wheel to toggle between hours and minutes, with the left scroll wheel controlling the numerical increase or decrease. A common mistake here is forgetting to adjust for daylight saving time, indicated by a sun icon on the dashboard. If you accidentally exit, hold the return button for ten seconds to reset and try again. Before finalizing, double-check against your watch time, as an inaccurate car system time can affect navigation records.

Last month, I just helped my wife adjust the time on her 308. First, press the small wrench button on the center console and wait for the settings menu to appear on the instrument panel. Then, use the knob at the end of the windshield wiper stalk to select the clock option. After confirming, use the same knob to adjust the time—turn clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease. Her base model without a touchscreen actually made the physical operation more convenient. A key point to note is that the time set while the engine is off might reset after starting the car, requiring a reinitialization of the onboard computer before resetting. After adjusting, I also taught her to clean the screen fingerprints and reminded her not to press the buttons too hard.
