Stupid question about the clock

I haven't read the manual cover to cover but I can't seem to figure out how to set the clock. I picked up an 06 ML500 a couple of days ago and it includes the premium package. When I first drove it home, I noticed the clock was about 3-4 minutes faster than my cell phone. I tried to set the clock but couldn't figure it out (only able to set the TZ and DST). It's not that big of a deal now because since then, the clock seems to be only 30 secs to a minute faster than my cell.

I'm guessing now that the clock is synced automatically because of the Nav system (my buddy with an E with no Nav can manually set his clock). Is this true? If so, it would've been nice if the manual mentioned this (although very possible that I missed it).

Never mind, I found the answer in a FAQ on the MB owner's site:

"If your vehicle is equipped with the Modular COMAND System (****pit Management and Data system) and navigation module, the clock is set automatically via the navigation module."

I went to mbusa.com, clicked on the Owners Online link and registered my vehicle. From there, they had a link for FAQs.

It was suggested to me by my salesman as he said MB sometimes offers specials on accessories there. I'm planning on adding an iPod connection kit and running boards sometime soon.

Then why didn't mine set to standard time from DST? I had to set it manually.
