timzter Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 The clock on my dashboard shows the correct local time (Eastern Time). I have checked Settings-->Clock, and it shows Eastern Time with Daylight Savings On. I assume that nav connects to some remote time server to update the time based on my chosen time zone. But when I set my destination to somewhere 15 minutes away from my current location, the estimate time of arrival shown on the screen is 1 hour 15 minutes! So if the current time is 4:00 pm and the destination is 15 minutes away, the estimated time of arrival is 5:15 pm! Where do I correct the nav's system time?

There is another time setting somewhere in the Nav settings...I don't recall how I did it, but I had the same problem. Another easy fix is to tap the arrival time on the screen, and it converts to hours/minutes remaining to your destination.
peteanello Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Go to Menu, then Setup, make sure your time zone is correct, then turn off daylight savings time. Remember to turn it back on 3/14/10. So, I think your issue is that you have DST turned "ON".

But we *ARE* in Daylight Saving Time now (http://www.infoplease.com/spot/daylight1.html) so it should be "ON".

Read the first sentence of the Web Page you referenced. Daylight Savings time begins March 14th.
