Setting the Clock

Hi,

Newbie here. Recently inherited a 99 EB as a result of my dad passing. I have all the original docs, but nowhere can I find how to set the clock. I'm a known idiot within my circles, and I'm sure I'll be a known idiot here, but can someone point me in the right direction?

It has 97K on it, meticulously maintained. It has a bunch of Manik brush guards front and back, plus a remote engine start. Anything special I should know?

Seems to be a great site, and I'll explore it further.

thanks,
MrM

Hey and welcome. Setting the clock is very simple if you know the right buttons to push and what sequence. From memory, you'll push the RDS (?) button until "clock" or "time" is displayed then use up arrow and down arrow buttons to change the time.

Hopefully this helps, if not I'll follow-up later with better details.

There are no silly questions here, only occasionally a silly answer. :-)

In my '97 you push the "clock" button in, then also push the "scan" or "seek" buttoms for hours or minutes. Forward on the buttons advances the time, reverse goes back in tmie.

that's the problem! No clock button. I'll give the RDS thing a try.

cheers,
MrM

Yep, the RDS button is it. Then the SEL button for changing hours and minutes.
