Can't you have night setting on and just have a dark colored background?

I'm not sure any Navi system let's you swap out background images as that would be an actual distraction.

 

Not images, I mean color. Fat thumbs

 

 

 

I discovered a quirk in the Nav screen day/night brightness this evening. I have the Nav display set to Auto Day/Night, with the contrast and black levels set the way I liked them. The screen switches appropriately between modes depending on the outside light level. But using the +/- buttons to adjust the Instrument Panel brightness tonight made the Nav screen switch to Day mode when the Instrument Panel brightness is at the very highest level (brightest). At night, the Day mode of the Nav screen lights up the whole interior of the car and makes driving visibility very difficult. But moving the Instrument Panel brightness down just one position (or more) changes the Nav screen back to night mode. Is this a feature or a bug? I can not find reference in the manuals to this 'feature'.

 

 

I also noticed this and feel it is a bug since manual settings work except maximum brightness. I keep the brightness level one below max as a workaround but it is not exactly what I want to achieve. I am yet to try out another option to max out the brightness during daytime and then check it after dark.

 

It's a feature. Max brightness is max brightness regardless of day or night. One click down, it goes back to automatic brightness which in turn enables night mode.
