Viewing the approach plates while on approach at night can be difficult to look at since the background of the plate is primarily white. To change the color mode on the approach plate display, follow the directions below:

From the 'Home' screen, select 'Tools'
Select 'Setup' and then touch 'Display'
Scroll down the Display Setup page and touch the configurable option for 'Color Mode'
Selecting 'Auto' will allow the aera 660/760/795/796 to automatically dim at the time of sunset everyday. Otherwise selecting 'Day' or 'Night' will allow the display to appear bright or dark depending on the selection

Selecting the color mode from 'Day', 'Night', or 'Auto' will dim and brighten the screen for better viewing during the day or night.
