bright.
To change back to a brighter screen and brighter colors on the map, tap the
button
Use day colors .
Can my GO make this change automatically?
Yes it can. Your GO has a light sensor so it knows when it’s getting dark. To
change to night and day colors automatically, tap
Brightness preferences in
the Preferences menu. Then select Switch to night view when dark .

In some situations, it is easier to see the map from above. Perhaps if the
roads are very complicated or if you are walking and using your GO to
navigate.
Turn off map
display
Tap this button to turn off the map. Instead of seeing your position on a map
in the Driving View, you will only see information about the next instruction.
To switch the map back on again, tap Turn on map display .
When you tap this button, you have to specify when the map should be
turned off. These are the options:
• Always - you will only see information about the next instruction and
arrows. The map will never be shown.
• Above a certain speed - you set the speed at which the map is switched
off. When you are driving fast, the map can be distracting. We
recommend using this option to turn the map off when you drive on a
highway or freeway.
• Never - the map is never switched off.
