Megane RS 265. How to set the clock?!

[Tim3003]

I've just bought the above second hand (63 reg) , and notice that where the digital clock should be on the RS monitor screen there is --/--. ie the time has never been set. I've been through the Settings option to set it and they don't seem to work. I can go into 'clock', and 'set time', but then there seems no way to enter digits, or even to just advance the clock from 00:00. There's just the + sign or the <- back arrow. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Just a punt, but it might be in the settings menu in the dash display / trip computer thing rather than the bigger screen?

From memory you can only access certain options once stationary (and/or with the engine off but the ignition on).

Good luck.

Thanks, but I've tried the trip computer options. Nothing there re the clock. And I've tried with the engine off...

To change the clock, go into the menu and swivel the left steering column up/down thing (for changing radio/song) or swivel the knob itself.

Do you mean the stubby stalk hidden behind the wheel on the right? (My car is RHD). It has buttons to change radio volume/station, phone settings, activate voice help.. I tried these but nothing registered on the clock screen. The stalk on the left is lights only as far as I can see..

I meant right, my bad.
You can do it from there, or use the swivel dial on the actual radio itself.
It's not set to GPS time is it, preventing you to change it?

In case anyone is still interested:
I just updated the R-link software - I saw some of the maps were out of date, and found out the way to update maps is via the R-link website.
To update, had to connect my sd-card to my PC. Download the R-link software and install it. Run, and R-link does the rest. Listed on the web-page update menu are some apps. One of them is 'Clock'. I downloaded this too as part of my update, just in case.
Having now installed the updates - done automatically when you put the sd-card in the car, the clock works!
So that's one way of doing it. I assume the original installation to the car didn't include the Clock app for some reason.
