My manual is in the car, but as far I could remember it is done by pushing the button on turning signal lever (the left one ;-)), then changing settings options with the small up-down button. If nobody gives a better answer in the next few hours, I will check that on the car.

Hi
Changed the date on my X1 today with no issues. Follow the manual as it says, but remember it's the 'Set' with the key symbol and not the 'Set' with the date symbol that you’re looking for. From reading the manual it sounds like this is a setting that's saved on the key fob (along with a few others) and not in the car itself... but I might be wrong. Anyway, date is now in good old UK format J. |

No worries. Forgot to add... engine has to be started and you need to make the change within 20 seconds or so. If you move off the key symbol 'Set' vanishes.
