CLK500 can't adjust clock

I recently had a cartronics ipod facility installed in my 2005 CLK500 and I now find that clock has been set at the wrong time. I have tried to adjust it using the steering wheel controls but under 'Settings' , I cant find the 'Date/Time' menu. What am I missing?

Don't you change your time from the head unit (Navi)?

Don't know what year is your car but on mine 2006, I think you need to turn ON daylights saving time then selects one of the listed time region that you live in. The clock then automatic adjust the times for you.

In my '05, the clock was set through the NAV system, you just select the time zone and daylight savings time. After I upgraded my instrument cluster ('06) I now adjust it through it, not through the NAV anymore...
