Default The completely USELESS Owner Manual

So today I wanted to reset the clock on the instrument panel as we have now reverted to GMT from British Summer Time (BST). I look in the manual index for 'clock'. Yes there it is and apparently on Page 52. I go to Page 52 which is titled Instrument Panel and look for 'clock'. It is not even mentioned ! Does anybody at Jaguar ever read their own manuals ?

So, anybody know how I do reset the clock ?

On the F-Type you simply touch/hold the time readout and that brings up the time reset screen, maybe it works the same on the XE?
Worth a try.

You're right about the manual - the worst I have ever encountered

If I recall right, the time is reset in the touch screen in "settings"

Finally found it this morning as a sub-entry in "touch screen' in the index of the manual. One has to go to System where the menu has Date/Time and select this. A simple entry under "clock" for "reset clock" would have saved a lot of searching.
