We have to remember to change the time on all of the clocks we own when the clocks go ahead to British Summer Time on the last Sunday in March and back to Greenwich Mean Time on the last Sunday in October.
Here’s how to change the clock in all models that fall under the current range to try and make your life a little bit easier. The clocks can generally be divided into two groups: those that have physical adjustment buttons and those that use the Remote Touch Interface in the car.

Adjusting the time using physical buttons
There are physical buttons next to the clock display that can be used to change the clock on CT and IS models without satellite navigation.
Three buttons are situated next to the digital clock in the CT. Hours and minutes are represented by the two on the left, “H” and “M,” and pressing the corresponding button will move the corresponding digit. When the ‘:00’ button on the right is hit, the clock will be rounded to the nearest hour.
The IS has an analog clock with two tiny buttons on either side of it. If you want to advance the hands clockwise until the desired time is achieved, press the button on the right. If you want to move the hands counter-clockwise to advance the time, use the button on the left.
Adjusting the time using the Remote Touch Interface
The majority of brand-new Lexus cars don’t have physical buttons to change the clock. Instead, it is automatically adjusted to match the GPS of the navigation. Nevertheless, utilizing the car’s Remote Touch Interface, you may still change the settings or manually change the time.
Press the “MENU” button on the Remote Touch, choose “General settings,” and then “Clock.” Your time zone, whether or not you want daylight saving time to be in effect, and whether or not you want the clock to automatically adapt are the three options that you can set here.

The minute hand should advance to the following hour. When the clock stops striking, raise the small wire hanging beneath the dial (or lower it on some clocks) and allow the timepiece to continue striking.

How are clock chimes synchronized with time?
When the mantel clock chimes incorrectly, the chime is not in sync with the time of the clock. To change the chime on your mantel clock, do as follows:
Adjusting the Hourly Chime
- Count the number of times the chimes on your mantel clock. Your hourly striker is set to this time.
- Set the hour hand to the hour that the hourly chime indicates (count the number of gongs at the hour).
- The chime should also change as the time is set by moving the minute hand to the appropriate hour.
Adjusting the Quarter Chime
The minute hand, which is friction-fit on the majority of mantel clocks, is easily removable. The tube must be squeezed in order to become loose. Reinstall the minute hand at the right time after it has been removed. The minute hand can then be turned to reset the time from there.
How can a clock that chimes the wrong hour be fixed?
Put the hour hand in the proper place after counting the chimes. Move the hour hand to the number three, for instance, if the clock chimes three times. Your clock is now accurately chiming, however it is telling the erroneous time. Turn the minute hand clockwise until it displays the current time to make this adjustment.
