Satnav clock one hour behind UK time

[v8woollie]

Has anyone else got the time on their satnav to be one hour behind UK time? Is there a way to adjust the time as I cannot see an option?

I don't think the time can be changed.

I presume yours is the pre-hard drive software? If so then there's an error in the software and you're stuck with it.

If you leave it until 29th October it should be right

Thanks. No such thing as using the GPS to get the correect time then

Ah you have a proper satnav then

Maybe applying the timezone offset is left as an exercise for the driver...? :-p

Perhaps, if only the Volvo satnav in the Vantage had that option! All you can select is the date format and 12 or 24 hour time display. You can't set the time or whether you are in daylight saving time or not. Why it cannot get the correct time from the GPS or at least have the option to set your timezone is beyond me

I'd say it has got the correct time from the GPS - GMT, but agree that it should have an option to set the timezone/daylight saving.

Interestingly, my standalone TomTom doesn't handle TZ or daylight saving either:

After using Sync to set the time, you may have to adjust the hours depending on your time zone and the daylight-saving time.
