You can change between day and night views manually in the Quick Menu (4.6.2.3)
or let Mio Map do it automatically (6.1.2) for you.

Note: The automatic day/night mode is based upon the current date and GPS
position by which Mio Map calculates the exact sunrise and sunset times on the
particular day at the particular location. Using that information Mio Map can
automatically switch between the colour 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 colour schemes included with Mio Map. To
select the one that suits your needs the best, make your selection in Advanced
settings / Map options (6.5.4.1).

Tip: To further enhance the effect of the night colour scheme, you can instruct Mio
Map to decrease the display backlight when the night colours are used. Set the
desired backlight levels for both daylight and night modes in Advanced settings /
Backlight (6.5.2.2
).

Note: The colours mentioned and screenshots included in this manual refer to the
default daytime and night colour schemes. They may not look the same in the
schemes you have chosen.

Tip: If you use Mio Map after sunrise or before sunset, look for the sun in the sky in
the map background using a flat 3D view. It is displayed at its actual position to give
you another way to orientate, and also to provide some eye candy.
