Default Clock Setting

I just picked up an 02 S60 and trying to set the silly clock. I have turned it to the right and to the left. I have pressed it in while turning. What is the trick to setting it? It is just one of those things that are bothering me.


Thanks again for any help you can give me.

I think you just twist it clockwise to advance and anti-clockwise to delay, it takes a couple of seconds of holding it twisted before the time starts to alter

Hello and welcome to the forums.
You should be able to adjust your clock by just turning the control clockwise to advance the time and anticlockwise to put it back.

Does the key have to be in a certain position?

Not sure, but I have always adjusted mine with the engine running.

Press the control in hard while turning it. Have to admit I find setting the clock really fiddly on this car because of the way the control works

Thanks guys. I got in it at lunch and turned it a little harder out of anger and it clicked. This caused the time to change. So basically I was not turning hard enough.

Thanks again
Thom
