Default How do I change the clock?

I am stuck in a phase II S40 for a few days whilst my dealer tries (again) to sort out the aircon in my S70.

I have noticed that the dashboard clock is an hour fast (due to the change over the weekend) and as I have a long journey to do tomorrow, I just know it will bug me.

I cannot see any buttons near the clock and as there is no manual in the car, can anybody please tell me just how I change the time?

Thanks

The 40 series only run in British Summer Time !!!

Seriously though, there is a little arm that comes out at the bottom of the dash just below the display.

Turn it the direction you want to go but need to hold for a few seconds before it kicks into gear.

Sounds a bit like the aircon on my S70 :-(

Thanks

Well having just finished the best part of a 500 miles since 9am this morning, I think I was right the first time.

I must admit it is far better than other S/V40s I have driven in the past and did sit quite happily on the motorway but I will still be glad to get mine back in the morning as it feels more solid, has better seats and has a lot more get up and go (although this S40 is certainly more nippy round town).

I could not help feeling as I drove today that it felt very similar to my old Mondeo (but is much better screwed together).

It's not a bad car at all. Indeed I could probably live with it but maybe I'm spoilt.

PS

What's up with all the orange lights on the outside. Felt like I was driving a Christmas tree
