Clock setting, Nav equipped

I know with my nav equipped E Class I set the clock thru the command. With the W164, when I call up the time on the MCS it seems that the only change I can make is to the time zone. How does one reset the clock for the change back to std time or does it do it itself??

You have Navisgation, I assume? I believe it is automatically set by the nav system. Check your COMAND manual to verify.

Well, I don't claim to be an expert. I'm still learning things like all of us.

Does anyone have the COMAND manual as a PDF?

Clock time is automatically set by Navigation/Satellite, but you still have to choose the correct regional settings/time zone i.e. EST/CST/PST... and that can be done through the command system by selecting "SERV" button and follow directions to set time zone. Hope this helps

It seems like, since the clock is set through the navigations system, that it could easily know what time zone you're in and set it automatically!

Yes, it could very well know, but it is not done autoamtically now but hast to be done manually.
