2007 Mitsubishi Outlander: Time Change

The end of daylight savings this past weekend forced me to adjust the clock in our Mitsubishi Outlander. Now, I'm no audio technoid genius, but I'm not a total idiot either. After pushing a couple of buttons and changing a few screens on the Outlander's multi-media nav system, I gave up and pulled out the owner's manual.

Flipping immediately to the index, I looked under Clock and Time, with no luck...

Thumbing through the audio section I found a whole page on how to set the clock, but it didn't apply to our optional system.

Monday morning I arrived at the office parking garage and met up with Mike Magrath, Vehicle Testing Assisant and Technical Whiz Kid.  Mike hopped into the Outlander, found the system screen which led to the clock function, and ten seconds later, we fell back an hour.

So much for not being an idiot.

It's weird. I went through this on my Lancer last Sunday (same NAV system). What you do is dig through the menus until you find the option to turn off Daylight Savings, then the clock falls back an hour. Come Springtime I guess I'll just have to do the opposite.
 
I believe that NAV systems all take their time off the Navigation Sattelites (probably GMT or some-such) and those don't understand the concept of "daylight savings."

Simply press the "Set" button to the lower left of the nav screen and you will find options to adjust the clock.
