Preferences>Adjust time (page 8, I think)

You have to manually adjust it. I tried to "sync" mine a day or two after it changed and it sync'd to the wrong time. I suspect that TomTom hasn't adjusted the software to account for the earlier start of DST.

I think the 'sync' allows you to start the clock at 00 seconds, which would allow you to 'sync' to GMT, or dish/DTV time or whatever time you use for reference.

It's very odd that you can't just set your offset from UTC and call it a day and it'll do the rest. Sure override it if you want, but why can't you set it to sync the min/sec to gps time automatically??? You won't get much more accurate time than what the GPS is calculating internally...

Let me clarify a bit more. I have an automatic clock that adjusts itself each day. When I pressed the Sync button it matched the minutes and seconds my "atomic" clock was set at and it set the hour to CST (-1 hour) instead of DST. I tried it more than once so I'm pretty sure i didn't press it at exactly 0 seconds. So I just adjusted the hour up one. I haven't tried it in the last day or two so I'm not sure if it's been fixed.
