How to change time on this clock?

Options
Got this clock and struggling to change the time to adjust the hr. No settings only time set at the back and what you see on the front. There is a pad control for alarm on the right with on and off. Ican only set it by playing with it. Just wondering whether anybody is familiar with this clock.

    Try pressing the H and M buttons down at the same time for a few secs to see if the display starts flashing.
  • Just a guess, but maybe you need to activate the time-set function on the back (is it a switch/pad...?), then when that is activated, each press of the H button should advance the hour by one, and similarly, one press of the M button should advance the minutes by one. Good luck!

    Slightly OT but all of our clocks are those smart speakers in every room and they change automatically. I actually forgot the clocks went backwards for a while.
  • I was driving home at 1AM (BST) last night and noticed my car reverted to GMT an hour early (clock went from 00:59 to 00:00).

    Are you sure that your car clock wasn't still on GMT from last year (pretty sure my car is)? 

    Incidentally, my car has a DAB radio, why doesn't it change to BST/GMT automatically like my other housebound DABs?

    I think officialy the clocks go back at 03:00 so you could go out and get home before you left!
    Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!

    If all else fails, OP, try taking the batteries out.

    From. https://www.gov.uk/when-do-the-clocks-change

    In the UK the clocks go forward 1 hour at 1am on the last Sunday in March, and back 1 hour at 2am on the last Sunday in October.
