Jeep Renegade How to Set the Clock (2015-2023) – Change the Time
About this video
In this quick DIY guide, you’ll learn how to set the clock and change the time on your Jeep Renegade. Whether the time reset after a battery change, needs adjusting for daylight saving time, or you just want to switch between automatic (GPS) and manual time setting, this walkthrough covers it. It’s a simple menu procedure that takes under a minute once you know where the setting lives.
🔧 What This Video Covers:
✅ Where to find the clock/time setting in the radio menu
✅ Switching between automatic (GPS-synced) and manual time
✅ Setting the hours and minutes manually
✅ Choosing 12-hour vs. 24-hour format
✅ Saving the setting so it holds correctly
📅 Applicable Years / Generations:
This procedure applies to the Jeep Renegade BU generation (2015–2023).
– Pre-facelift: 2015–2018
– Facelift: 2019–2023
The time-setting menu works across the full BU run. Depending on your trim you’ll have either the button-based radio or the Uconnect touchscreen — the menu names look slightly different, but the process is the same. Facelift models (2019+) use an updated Uconnect interface with the same basic clock-setting flow.
🚗 Also Applies To These Related Vehicles:
The Jeep Renegade uses the FCA Uconnect infotainment system found across many Fiat Chrysler vehicles of this era, so the clock-setting steps are very similar on:
– Fiat 500X (2016–2023) – corporate platform sister
– Jeep Compass MP (2017–2023)
– Jeep Cherokee KL
– Dodge, Chrysler, and Ram models using Uconnect
Because this is an infotainment software procedure rather than a mechanical repair, the menu flow carries over broadly across FCA vehicles, though exact menu wording and screen graphics vary by model and Uconnect version.

💡 Quick Tip: If your Renegade is set to automatic time, it syncs from GPS — so if the time is off, check the time zone and daylight saving settings rather than trying to set the hours manually. If you switch to manual, the clock won’t auto-adjust for daylight saving, so you’ll need to change it twice a year.
