Hello,

 

I have gone from a SII to a 2023 SIII. Everything is new and almost more difficult to adjust.

 

I did read through the manual and surely must have missed it.

The car is displaying AM and PM. I want a 24 hour clock display. So far I have been unable to find any adjustment option.

 

Can anyone help please.

You may download on your device too - available in My Škoda essentials too. Page 135

I did click through the settings function to the menu that you have shown, but the time menu does not show the format option.

You should normally get the ignition ON (no brake) to access these settings.

Had to alter the time on my Karoq last week and noticed the DST setting. What’s the significance of this, does the clock change automatically twice a year? 

I connected my old VCDS cable and there were lots of DTCs. after I deleted some I had another menu button in the main menu which allowed me to change the format. It is not like the manual describes it......

Not automatically at least not on my 2016, have to turn it on/off every March and October

Assumed that to be the case, so why have the two settings 🤔

Thank you so much for the suggestions. Are you also a student like me who wants to get rid of those boring essays but also wants to be good because they hold a good amount of numbers? Then you can use this https://ukwritings.com/buy-essay website, where you can hire a professional writer to write an essay for you. I have used them, and I know they are very good and affordable.

Thanks, I didn't know it before.

Edit: I will try it and if I still face any issue, I will update by starting my own thread for better answers. Sorry for sneaking in other post.

Despite the auto setting facility, which I assumed meant the clock would automatically update twice a year, it didn’t.  So adjusted it manually and like OP would have preferred a 24 hour clock but that doesn’t seem to be possible 🙁

Yep same here, my 2016 S3 had the 24 hr clock but the 2020 S3 facelift seems to only have the 12 hr 😞

Not having a 24hour clock means I’ll have to look through the windscreen now to see if it’s daylight or nighttime 😂

We that’s odd, cos it does on our 2016.

Hmm, it is something that can be changed via vcds etc I believe but not enabled as standard, despite the buttons

 

If you’ve had it from new and not changed that is odd indeed

It’s linked to RDS/DAB service/s I believe; I’ve certainly never had to intervene on changing to/from DST. 

I wonder if folk like me where it’s not changing is because we never use the radio, I don’t 😁

I’m getting used to the 12hour clock - was out in the car yesterday, I looked through the windscreen just as I got home, saw it was still light and indeed it was only 4pm 😄

Boo, not that then

Just found this in the Columbus manual….

 

Its an easy fix .

Just press settings on menu.

Scroll down to configuration wizard .

Left hand icon that looks like a clock press and change between 24h / 12hr .

Takes 10 seconds .
