Changing time from 24hr to AM/PM in the Dash

I have already set the clock on the radio screen to AM/PM standard. But when I change the setting on the dash to the AMG setting, where it shows the current gear its in, the current speed, and the current time, the time comes up in a 24hr format. How do I change this clocks format to AM/PM?

Try going to settings on your steering wheel menu. I think it was something there.

You should go under settings on the NAV screen and adjust the clock settings there. It will update the dash.

I hope that everybody remembers that ROW cars may be different than US cars.

It doesn't. I have changed the screen to be on AM/PM settings but the dash is still in 24hr setting. I have looked at all the options inside the dash and cant seem to find anything. All good, I will head to the dealership and get them to do it.

How does one change the date/time in the Command? I can change the time zone (under Settings) but for the life of me can't find how to set the date/time in any of the manuals.

Help!

My 2008 also displays only the 24 hr clock in the center gauge. There doesn't seem to be any way to change it, thru the settings, etc.... I get the 12 hour clock in the center screen but 24 hour clock in the speedo. I'm used to it now.

Ditto, same here, brought my car to the dealer to try and set it in non 24hr form and he couldnt do it either, so just learned to lived with it.
