#25 of 36 Night mode by Wool948 Jan 13, 2009 (6:22 am)
I accidently set my nav. screen to day mode, which is memorized in the system, I'm having a tough time getting back to nightmode. Does anyone one out there knows how to do that. Much appreciated. Replies to this message: agdoc1 (Jan 13, 2009 12:58 pm) Wool948 (Jan 13, 2009 4:03 pm)

Replying to: Wool948 (Jan 13, 2009 6:22 am) Day mode is can be set by having your headlights on and having the dash lights turned all the way up to maximum. It is intended for driving with the lights on in the day. If you turn your dashboard light intensity down it assumes you are driving at night and switches to night mode.   If you have the dash light thumbwheel turned all the way up and clicked into maximum it removes the "daylight mode" from your screen options when using the navigation controls.   That's the only problem.

Replying to: valleygirl2 (May 10, 2008 6:59 am) Have you tried changing your area/region? Which state do you live in?   When you press the DEST (Destination) button, you'll see a United States map on the right with the label "Search Area". Make sure that your region is highlighted.   If not, touch the "Change" area on the screen. Touch the region you live in, one of "US1" through "US10" and "CAN". Touch the "OK" area and the Destination screen will display again.   Now, try looking for your home address.   I've had this problem when I first got my Prius. It's a little annoying compared to the more annoying "feature" where they decided we cannot operate the GPS while in motion (except through voice which has limited capabilities).   Note: If you are looking for areas beyond the region you are in, you would need to change it first as described above, then enter the address or POI again.   Cheers! ^_^

One of my keys has quit working. I think it needs a batter. Can that be changed and do I do that at the dealer or can I do it myself?

#32 of 36 Map split screen is annoying by justlooking9 Sep 09, 2009 (9:56 am)
I can see where having the map change to a split screen automatically when you're not sure where you're going, but most of the time it's just annoying. Can this auto change behavior be disabled, how? Replies to this message: prius2010 (Oct 07, 2009 6:22 pm)

Replying to: justlooking9 (Sep 09, 2009 9:56 am) I just bought a Prius 2010 . the seller told me that it has the latest version of NAV DVD. It is v8.1. Has anyone never version of this?
#34 of 36 NavDVD by hihostevo Oct 08, 2009 (10:31 am)
The next Nav DVD normally comes out in November of each year. Every other year they update either the West Coast of the US or the East Coast of the US.   The next Nav DVD should have the latest data for the West Coast included... but currently 8.1 is the latest until the next one shows up.
