How to set the clock?

Inspector71 · 11-05-2009, 11:50 AM

I read the manual, I had the manual on the seat, but I still could not figure out how to set the clock. I wanted to set it back for obvious reasons. I pressed all the buttons the manual said but no dice. Can anyone give me a step by step walk through on how to set the clock for a non-tech frustrated person? It will be appreciated.

ok which model do you have? if its base I can give you instructions cause I just changed mine for Daylight savings. And if it is Nav I can help there as well.

Let me know and I will give you the instructions in lamens terms

No, seriously. There are (2) buttons on the information center, let's call one "Enter" and the other "Next."

1. You cannot be moving.
2. You press the "Next" button until you see the "Setting" Menu.
3. Press "Enter" to jump into said Menu.
4. Press "Next" until you select "Clock."
5. Press "Enter."
6. Modify the Hour using the "Next" button until you're happy with the setting.
7. Press "Enter."
8. Repeat step (6) for the Minutes.
9. Press "Enter."
10. Do a gigantic burnout, it will kick you out of the menu.
11. Profit.

Thanks, I have the base model. And believe me, I read the instructions over and over and it didn't work for me. I am not young or a techy so that may explain the problem. Again, thanks. Like I said, I did manage to change the hour, don't remember how and couldn't get back to that 'screen' after I did.

Inspector71 · 11-05-2009, 12:17 PM

That is what I did and no luck. I was actually sitting in my garage around midnight. The family was asleep and I thought, with the manual in my hands, no problem. Right. Anyway, I pretty much did what you said but will print your instructions, tape them to my skull, and try again. I never did figure out all the stuff on the Pathfinder I had. Drove my kids nuts. I couldn't understand why I would want to put my cat in a folder.......

P.S. I never see these cars in the Kansas City area, not even 350s

And your car is really awesome. I saw a pearl white Z at a dealer and it is truly a great color.

Good luck with the clock. Don't try to set it at a red light. Murphy's Law will make sure the light will turn green as soon as you get into the menu. Took me like 5 lights to actually get it done the other day

hahaha that sh!t is soo true and it happens to me all the time except I am running through system menus on the nav screen...

Good luck with the clock Inspector!

Murphy has kicked the $#%* out of me for the past year to the point I won't even go to Papa Murphy's Pizza. I had to have a new background for my school laptop here at the high school where I teach. Not being an Oprah type, I don't have butterflies, clouds with smiling faces, and puppies like so many other teachers. So I chose a W.W. II hero. Audie Murhpy....

Why not the Z? No way I want these hoodlums knowing what I drive.

Inspector71 · 11-06-2009, 09:08 AM

I followed your instructions and, after a few tries, it worked. I wish I could say I knew what I was doing. I am an "older" sportscar nut and all that tech stuff is not my forte. Maybe that is why I bought the base model ha ha ha

Is there a symbol that resembles a clock somewhere around the radio? IF so, depress it & hold till the numbers blink off'n'on, then use the "Seek" button to set your clock. That's how it's done in my '04.5 350; it MAY have changed on the 370. Good luck!...Oops!, sorry, you already got it!
