The dashboard on the right side of the Wuling Hongguang S has two buttons, one for adjusting hours and the other for minutes. Press and hold for ten seconds, wait for the time to flash, and then press to adjust. Each press adjusts the time by one unit. After setting the hours, follow the same method to adjust the minutes. More details about the Wuling Hongguang S are as follows: 1. The Wuling Hongguang S is a crossover product independently developed by SAIC-GM-Wuling based on the Wuling Hongguang model, positioned between commercial and passenger vehicles. It features a sleek exterior design and a versatile, practical, and spacious interior. 2. It has a wheelbase of 2720 mm, with length, width, and height dimensions of 4390 mm, 1660 mm, and 1750 mm, respectively. The Wuling Hongguang S offers a flexible and adaptable interior space. 3. It is equipped with two engines: the P-TEC 1.2L and 1.5L, designed and manufactured to General Motors' global powertrain standards. Both engines feature a double overhead camshaft design, delivering robust performance. The 1.2L naturally aspirated engine produces 76 horsepower and a maximum torque of 110 Nm, with peak torque available between 3000 and 4000 rpm. It employs multi-point fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum cylinder head with a cast iron cylinder block. This engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The 1.5L naturally aspirated engine generates 99 horsepower and a maximum torque of 140 Nm, with peak torque available between 3400 and 4400 rpm. It also features multi-point fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum cylinder head with a cast iron cylinder block. This engine is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. 4. The Wuling Hongguang S adopts a five-link swing-arm rear suspension with excellent shock absorption. The drivetrain uses a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, with a weight distribution of 45:55 between the front and rear axles, ensuring a reasonable center of gravity and relatively balanced traction across all four wheels.

The method to set the time on the Wuling Hongguang S varies by trim level. For the base model: Start the engine, press and hold the small cylindrical button at the lower right corner of the instrument cluster for 3 seconds until the hour digits flash, then release. Press briefly to adjust hours, then long-press to switch to minutes and continue adjusting. Stop pressing to confirm. For higher trims with an LCD screen (more convenient): Turn the key to ON position (no need to start engine), locate the button with a 'clock' icon among the steering wheel left-side buttons, press briefly. When the instrument cluster time flashes, use up/down buttons to adjust values and press OK to confirm. For the latest touchscreen-equipped version: Tap 'Settings' → 'System Settings' → 'Time & Date' on the central display, directly tap to modify numbers on screen, and optionally switch between 12/24-hour display formats.

I drive a 2021 Wuling Hongguang S, the version with a small LCD screen in the instrument cluster. To set the time, first turn the key to the power-on position, and notice several buttons with small arrows on the left side of the steering wheel. Locate the button with a clock symbol (on my car, it's a small circle with a horizontal line icon), and briefly press it—the time on the instrument cluster will start flashing. Then, use the up and down arrows to adjust the numbers. Once the correct time is set, press the clock button again to confirm. The whole process doesn’t require starting the engine. When pressing the buttons, apply a bit of force as the tactile feedback is somewhat weak. If your car doesn’t have a large screen but the instrument cluster has a color display, you might need to hold the MODE button on the right side of the steering wheel to access the menu and find the clock settings.

The Wuling Hongguang S has three methods for time adjustment. For older models without an LCD screen on the instrument panel: Start the vehicle, press and hold the knob at the bottom right of the instrument panel for 10 seconds until the hour hand flashes, then rotate to adjust the hour. Press once to switch to minute adjustment. For newer models with a multifunction steering wheel: Power on the vehicle, press the clock button on the left (icon is a circle with hands), and use the volume keys to adjust the values up or down. For models with a central control touchscreen: Simply tap the screen, enter the time option in the system settings, and input the numbers via touch. Additionally, long-pressing the confirm button can switch between 12-hour and 24-hour formats. Note: It's best to adjust the time when the vehicle is parked.
