On your steering wheel the bottom two buttons on the left hand spoke (on a 2001 car) are your page up and down buttons, the up arrow is your OK button and the right hand plus and minus buttons make changes. Go to the settings page using the page up / down buttons, use plus / minus to get to the "instrument cluster" option, hit the up arrow to go into the menu, then use plus / minus on the right spoke to make changes, then commit it with the up arrow on the left side.

What a triumph of technology......

On my first car, you just pushed the centre knob on the clock and turned it to set the time. Haven't found a better system yet!

I borrowed a Merc loan car once - it took me some 15 minutes to work out how to set the clock through the various menus. Crazy!

It's pretty easy if you have COMAND - in fact it's automatic. It even detects when you cross the channel and changes the timezone for you which is surprising.

It doesn't change for BST for some reason, you have to do that yourself. It's pretty easy though.
