How to Set the Clock in Your Mazda
No matter what technological device it is, figuring out how to set the clock on said device always seems to be a challenge. It’s not that the process is difficult, either, but instead it’s just difficult to figure out which controls actually change the time on your device. So what about your Mazda model? We’ll show you just how easy it is to set the clock in your Mazda.
Here we will outline two different ways to change the clock on your Mazda. The first is known as Type A, while the second is known as Type B and is the Mazda Connect infotainment system. If neither of the guides below seem to apply to your particular Mazda model, consult your owner’s manual or contact us at Mazda of Lodi.
