No matter how hard i try I cant find any reference in the handbook to explain how the clock is adjusted. I can do the digital clock via the computer menu system so thats fine but the analogue clock is now running slow compared to it. I had stupidly assumed they would be linked. I dont have sat NAV its the standard instrument pack for the Cdi. Anyway, can someone put me out of my mild misery!
Thanks Keith

I have to comand system with sat nav. There was an option to synchronise the clock with this, which found whilst shuffling around the convenience menus on the dash display. I then adjusted the clock through the comand service/settings option.

Which digital clock? The one in the menus?
If you don't have sat nav, you don't have command so can't sync to that.
If you adjust the time in the menus does the clock move? (albeit wrongly) If so, I suspect it thinks they are matching and the hands needs manually winding on.

My watch is set digitally and the hands wind round accordingly but whilst I've not had it on the merc, the watch did get out of sync on one occasion with the hands running a few mins behind the readout.

On the watch, there was a mode to allow you to wind the hands round so they read the same time, and I suspect there is something similar on the cluster though I've not seen it and knowing Merc, it may be a star computer job.
