How to set the time on the 8th generation Accord?
2 Answers
The method to set the time on the 8th generation Accord is: 1. Locate the "sound" button on the center console's audio and air conditioning panel; 2. Press and hold the "sound" button until the time starts flashing; 3. Adjust the hours by pressing the "h" button and the minutes by pressing the "m" button; 4. Once the correct time is set, press the "sound" button to confirm. Taking the 2008 8th generation Accord MT as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4945mm, width 1845mm, height 1480mm, wheelbase 2800mm, and fuel tank capacity 70L. The 2008 8th generation Accord MT is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 115kW and a maximum power speed of 6300rpm per minute.
When I first drove the 8th-gen Accord, I also looked into this. Setting the time is quite simple: first turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. There are usually a few buttons on the left side of the steering wheel—look for the one labeled SET and hold it for a few seconds until the time display on the dashboard starts blinking. Then use the up and down arrow keys to adjust the hour. If it feels too slow, pressing the arrow keys repeatedly will speed it up. After setting the hour, press the left/right keys or SET to switch to minute adjustment and follow the same method. Once confirmed, press SET to save. Remember, sometimes the time resets when the battery is low or after a power loss, requiring a reset. The Accord’s design is user-friendly—the whole process takes just a minute or two, no tools needed. Just wipe the buttons beforehand to prevent poor contact, and you’re good to go.
