How to Set the Clock on a Mazda 5

Most automotive clocks are built into a car's radio. However, in the Mazda5, the clock is a separate unit. The clock shares its panel with the ambient temperature display screen, which is a few inches above the radio. This is a helpful setup as it allows you to keep the factory clock even if you install an aftermarket radio. Setting the Mazda5's clock only takes you a couple of minutes.

• 1

  Turn the Mazda5's ignition on. The engine does not have to be running.

• 2

  Examine the control panel beneath the clock display. You'll see three buttons: "H," "M" and ":00."

• 3

  Hold down "H" to adjust the clock's hour. The digit will slowly advance. Release "H" when the hour is correct.

• 4

  Hold down "M" to adjust the clock's minute. Release the button.
