Question Dumb question - setting the clock time - W211, E320, 2004..??

Dumb question, but as I did not get a owners manual with my car, how does one set the time on the clock in the dash / speedo unit. Mine is about an hour fast?

Access the clock settings within your dash display.........press the "buttons" on the left side of the steering wheel to locate the settings for adjusting lights, clock, etc and then the plus and minus to get to the clock........just play around with the different display settings and you'll figure it out.

Thanks, will give it a bash. I have done the lights etc before, but never saw the clock option.

Tried this, got "convenience", "instrument cluster", "lights", "vehicle" but no provision for the clock. Browsed the realtive menu's, but did not find anything relating to the clock. Any more suggestions in detail?

If you have working COMAND with NAV, clock is automatically set via GPS.

Use SERV button to get to clock features you can control, i.e. daylight savings, etc.

This assumes your '04 works like our '06.

You could join "owners online" at MBUSA.com and download an owners manual copy. Dealer can get you one, too, and so can you order one at 800.for.merc

I just love how the clock has to completely go around like 24 hrs even if your just setting it a few minutes forward. Why the f*ck does it do that???
