To the right of the Steering Wheel, on the dash to the left of the On/Off Radio knob, there are three little buttons, the leftmost is the hour button, the middle is the minutes and the far right zeros the minutes.

Pressing These buttons will advance the Hours/Minutes, or will set the Minutes to 00.

David -

You must be a kinder soul than me - I was just writing...

Don't mean to be sarcastic - but did you check your owners manual? And surely your Prius dash clock did not change from DST by itself?

but saw your post before hitting 'submit'. I mean is it quicker to open a thread to ask a simple question as this instead of checking the owners manual. In some areas the manual can be confusing but clock/time changes...

It wouldn't because:
1. Politicians tend to mess with the dates.
2. Most clocks don't, including my GII.
3. Most clocks that do check with WWV. WWVB actually. The Prius can't do that (or can it?).

Nice that the new model has a clock that does. Hope it doesn't get screwed up by some change to DST in the next 10 years.

I seriously doubt that the clock on the dash in any 2010 Prius auto changed for DST. Mine did not, and my parents' new Prius did not, despite setting the option in the clock settings in the nav. I think that those settings are for configuring the internal navigation system clock.

As far as I can tell, the clock on the dash is just a dumb digital clock controlled by the 3 buttons to the right of the steering wheel. Since that clock is standard on all models of Prius (II - V), whether you have nav or not, it doesn't make sense that it would be connected to the nav options in any way.

If it makes you feel any better, mine gains a minute every couple of months - it's the first digital clock I've ever had that ran FAST.
