2008 FEH - Setting Date

i don't have one, so this answer is not meant to be demeaning, or foolish.

That's why I feel like an idiot. I looked there first. No go. I probably should have stated that up front.

CLOCK: To set the time, press CLOCK. The display will read SET

TIME. Use the memory preset #s to enter in the desired time, hours and minutes. The clock will then begin

from that time.

This is according to the owners manual page 26. Check here for an online one:

Thanks, Tom

I partially solved the problem. The date was showing July 4th yesterday because the am/pm selection was wrong. With that fixed, the correct date is shown. So the immediate problem is fixed.

There is still the issue of how the DATE is set. It is now a matter of curiosity more than anything else. How do you do it?

I appreciate you directing me to the motocraftservice site. I'll bookmark that; thanks. The info you provided does address the clock, but not the date.

When we bought the car, I also bought the shop manuals. So far, I can't find anything there also. Very strange, indeed.

Regards,

Ken

According to the owners manual, there is a Navigation Supplement for that system. Seems a shame that so much stuff is added on to cars that a single owners manual won't cover it all. Nice accessories I guess, but I mostly think of it as more stuff to break. The manual on my '02 Escape is thicker than any of the one's I've had on any car, and I've owned numerous vehicles since
