insert key and turn so the accessories come on

-press & hold the scan/repeat button on the radio until it beeps

-press the #4 key to change the hour

-press & hold the scan/repeat button until it beeps

you're done!

Uhhh, geez that's intuitive. Is it THAT much trouble to label the button "clock set" or something like that?

I always knew Honda made great long lasting cars, but now that I own one I have discovered that when it comes to user conveniences like this Honda is utterly retarded. I'd have to say I'm quite disappointed by Honda that way, their ergonomics are horseshit. Ok, not as bad as the american cars, but I was expecting better from Honda.

Our Dodge has a penpoint button labeled "H" and "M"
Nice and simple.

Before I figured it out, I had all but the ICE removed and then I turned the car upside down and shook it until the radio fell out then I physically put stickers numbered 1-12 on the clock face and when I want to know what time it is, I look at my watch then adjust the numbered stickers accordingly.
I guess when all else fails, there's always page 107 in the manual...

Even with the owner's manual, it seems overly complicated. My Integra had 2 small buttons labeled H and M.... my S2000 did one better, they just never added a clock.

my 95 civic had a little clock seperate from the radio... my radio time was always way off, i never bothered setting it... anyway, it had hour and minute buttons. easy.

that's weird your s2000 didn't have a clock. seems like a strange thing to leave off.

Lightbulb Re: how to change clock

I've noticed car clocks are quite inaccurate. My HCH's clock gains about a minute in 3 months (as did my old Corolla), while the clock in the wife's Mercury loses ~30 seconds a month. (My wristwach, OTOH, is fast by just 2 seconds a week.) Maybe some bright automotive engineer will invent an "atomic car clock" that automatically resets itself to the precise time daily (and changes back & forth from DST). An hour chime would be nice too.
