Setting the Map Detail — The detail of the map can be set to highest,

high, medium, low or lowest. This changes the zoom level that different
map objects (cities, highways, labels, etc.) are displayed. If you have set
a zoom level and the display is too cluttered, set the map detail to a
lower level; conversely set it to a higher level to view more detail. The
default is Medium.

displayed at the bottom of the screen.
