How to adjust digital clock

How do you adjust the clock? It's an slk320. I tried to use odometer-like button to adjust it--push/pull/turn left/right, but no success.

Is there a 'settings' button that I have to use?

Also, I don't have the manual. Any help is much appreciated.

I think that you have to push and hold one of them in for 10 seconds until the Hour digit starts to flash. Then turn it to advance the numbers. Push it again to switch to Minutes and rotate it again to advance. I will check my owners manual later but try that.

Clock Adjust

On my 1999 SLK 230, I do pull out gently on the stem and turn to the right to adjust minutes and turn left to adjust hours. They go forward only.
To reset trip meter, push and hold for 2 seconds to reset to zero.
