Clarion 430 MP3 Player User Manual


 
Changing the scale of the map is very easy. You can drag and stretch the scale
(Page 32) at the bottom of the Map screen, or use the zoom icons (Page 31) on both
Map and Cockpit screens.
Note: If you need to zoom out briefly to locate your position on the map, use the
Overview mode instead of zooming out and back in. The Overview mode is a 2D
North-up view that can be started by tapping the compass button on the right (Page
33).
Note: N.I.C.E 430 has a special Smart Zoom function for navigation that
automatically rotates, scales and tilts the map in 3D map mode to always give you
the optimal view in your current situation. When approaching a turn, it will zoom in
and raise the view angle to let you easily recognize your maneuver at the next
junction. If the next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to
flat in order to let you see the road in front of you.
4.3.3 Daylight and night color schemes
The different color schemes let you adjust N.I.C.E 430 to the brightness of the
environment. Use the daylight and night color schemes accordingly. Daylight colors
are similar to paper roadmaps, while the night color schemes use dark tints for large
objects to keep the average brightness of the screen low, with carefully selected
colors to still keep you informed about all the necessary information on the screen.
You can change between day and night views manually in the Quick Menu (Page
44) or let N.I.C.E 430 do it automatically (Page 62) for you.
Note: The automatic day/night mode is based upon the current date and GPS
position by which N.I.C.E 430 calculates the exact sunrise and sunset times on the
particular day at the particular location. Using that information N.I.C.E 430 can
automatically switch between the color schemes a few minutes before sunrise, when
the sky has already turned bright, and a few minutes after sunset before it gets dark.
Tip: There are several daytime and night color schemes included with N.I.C.E 430.
To select the one that suits your needs the best, make your selection in Settings
(Page 65).
Tip: To further enhance the effect of the night color scheme, you can instruct N.I.C.E
430 to decrease the display backlight when the night colors are used. Set the
desired backlight levels for both daylight and night modes. Page 73.
