Hi Gary,

It is adjusted along with the digital clock using the main touch screen. From the home screen press and hold on the digital clock in the top corner for a few seconds and you will be taken to the adjustment screen.

Hi I have tried that it just sets the digital clock in the virtual instruments panel. The analogue clock in the centre of the dash is working the hands move but the time is incorrect and during me mad.

Thanks Gary

you need to disconnect the clock and reconnect it. To access the clock the vents either side need to be removed. You can do this using a glass hook or something similar by inserting it right into the vents and pulling towards you. The clock has 2 push points either side and it will then be able to lift out

Have you tried going through the touch screen settings?

I read where xdave was suggesting setting via the digital clock on the home screen and not through the settings.

Holding your finger down over the digital clock is just a shortcut to the same settings screen without having to go through the menus.

If the analogue clock is not responding when making changes to the digital clock, but is otherwise incrementing correctly, it sounds like a fault. You could try disconnecting the vehicle battery for a few minutes first which I think stops the clock counting, and see if that resets it. If not remove it as Joe details and replace if still faulty.

Stick a Jaguar logo over the clock, and just use the digital readout.
