Let's see how to set the clock on a Mercedes Class A W169 (and on the Class B W245, the method is the same). The procedure depends on the infotainment system installed in the car. If we have the standard radio without navigation, the time is set from the instrument cluster using the buttons on the steering wheel.

Turn on the instrument cluster and repeatedly press the "menu" button on the steering wheel until the "settings" menu appears, then select the "time" option and adjust the hour and minutes using the buttons, then confirm the settings. If we have navigation instead, turn on the instrument cluster, press the "system" button and navigate to the "time" option; adjust the time using the controls on the screen and once set, the time will be automatically updated on the instrument cluster as well.
