Display brightness

(1/2) > >>

Gel:
Have to say this is first car I've owned where there's no dedicated switch so display brightness can be instantly amended :-\
Other day (early morning) in rain I put my headlights on, and dash display became far
too dim, but no quick fix possible. When stopped I fiddled with settings, and display brightness
was on "AUTO"; changed to manual, and moved brightness levels up so I could
better see the displays.

aljshep:
Try twisting the little knob that sticks out of the tachometer.
On our cars it switches between dim and bright.
On some models, pressing this switches from mph to kph.

I would go and have a look now but it's chucking it down out there. Will have a go when it eases off a bit. I have had a similar problem with the satnav going into night time mode.

Helijock:
SatNav goes into "night mode when the headlights come on. So if you have them on auto and they come on the sat nav will all but disappear.

steve101:
Yes, I knew about that. I'm hoping there is a quick way to alter the brightness that I am yet to discover. The rest of the dash going dark isn't a problem, just the sat nav if on the off chance I am using it.
