Is it possible to turn down the lighting intensity of the classic clock? In the morning it's just distracting.

Left side of the dash right next to the steering column are a pair of buttons
marked with up and down arrows. These raise and lower the dash lights.
See if you can get a setting that reduces the clock glare but permits you
to see the dash OK.

I have tried the buttons and it lowered the dash. But the clock is still bright as ever.

I played with clock again. And it does dim with the buttons. The problem is the whole center console is black. That's why it sticks out.

i have a 2017 IS300 and it does not have the digital clock on the dash. I suspect it’s a difference between the Canadian and American versions. I am in Canada.... this was something I noticed when looking at Youtube reviews. The US model has an extra menu option for the clock that mine does not have.

A very odd thing for Lexus to remove for no reason.

i have the F-Sport model. As you can see from the photo below which I screen captured from YouTube their model seems to have a digital clock in the display and a clock option in the menu.

My Canadian version does not have this at all. There is no clock option in the menu. It’s very odd.

Any other canadian owners notice this?
