Default Sportsman clock setting

I've bought a 2008 800 Sportsman and can't figure out how to set the clock. What gives? I've tried everything, I must have the intelligence of a 5 year old! On second thought, a five year ols could probably do it!

Thanks Bro. I aim to please...8-)

Sixpack, don't feel bad you may have to reference your book or the web site again when you need to reset it, lol..lol. Especially anytime you disconnect the battery....8-)

i was just thinking about that. not the clock part but if id remove the battery id want to be able to plug it into another 12v battery to keep the time. thought about the 12v cig out let on the pod. but then id need the ign on the whole time. i also thought about the 12v acc outlet i made for the rear. but that wont work either as its wires to the battery. so if i take tha battery out that wont work. oh well another project to add sometime.
