  • Automatic: If you want Kindle Fire to control the date and time based on your location, tap to turn this feature On. If you’d rather set the time manually, tap to turn this Off.

  • Set Time: To manually set the time, after you turn the Automatic option Off, tap the arrow on the right of this setting to display additional settings. Tap the + (plus sign) and – (minus sign) buttons to change the time, and then tap Save.

  • Set Date: Tap the arrow to the right of Set Date and then tap the + (plus sign) and – (minus sign) buttons to set the date you want, and then tap Save.
