Keeping the system time accurate may seem like it isn't important but there are many network related services that will not function if the time is out of sync.
==Manjaro Settings Manager==
The easiest way to ensure the time is being properly synchronized is the GUI tool included in '''Manjaro Settings Manager''' which is pictured to the left.  Simply check the box next to "Set time and date automatically"

An alternative is to use systemd via the systemd-timesyncd service.  This can be easily enabled with the command:
sudo timedatectl set-ntp true
<div style="clear: both"></div>
