Putting clock back an hour help

I assume everyone has put there clock back an hour in their car. I put mine back and later it was as it was before. Done it three times now and goes back as it was before. Am I missing something.

I'm surprised that none of the 17 that have read your post know how to do it.
After you have set the time and format (12/24 hr) press the scroll knob, right hand side of screen. That's what I did anyway and it has stayed as set. :D

I simply went to the time / date setting and unchecked the bst check box. Click went back an hour and has stayed there. Hope this helps

All I could find in the handbook was how to change the time with the oo set buttons behind the steering wheel, it only said to use the oo button. I will have to try the touch screen. Is it in settings.

Can someone move this post I didn't realise I put in introductions

I think it is in Menu -> Vehicle -> Time and date from what I recall

Yes I did it. Can't remember if it was vehicle but yes it was time and date and uncheck bst. I also had a problem with the central locking after using the key fob, it went to single door unlock. Handbook says menu - car - settings, when in fact it's vehicle not car. I reckon I will get to grips with it now I have found my way around.

I also had problems with setting time on the Columbus in Vehicle/Settings/Time and Date. I had to change from GPS setting to Manual and then manually set the time. Stayed set to right time after that. I would have thought that GPS would automatically change the time but didn't.

The PS satellites transmit a time signal based on UTC (GMT). You need to tell the car if you are using Daylight saving time or not; do that and all is well (and the time setting will be spot on).

Have fun,
