Default Date format in dash display

OK, I've read the book and been through all the on screen menus I can find but I don't see where/how you set the date format for the driver info screen in the main gauge cluster. Despite everything set to English US the date format is UK so 5/12/2016. As a Brit in Texas for 12 years I've just about got used to the backward format so this is messing with my brain...

Does the F-Type remain stoutly British wherever it travels ? ;-)

Yep, I have not been able to make mine American. I live with it, but then I don't care about the date in my car. It is on my watch, my phone, my PC, and my wall calendar.

Go to the infotainment and select setup, the time and date are at the top if I remember correctly.

Drove me bonkers for a bit as well. I took a few minutes and browsed the menu. It has now been reset to month/day/year.

You don't have to go through the setup menu, simply press the actual time displayed on the main screen and it will pop up.

You should check car facts to make sure that your vehicle wasn't a write off in a front-end head to head?
