Navigation default settings
Just dumped our 2009 Mini Clubman with navigation for a 2009 ES350 with navigation. The Mini was a pain but had a few nice defaults that I don't see in the Lexus. The Mini would let you choose which screen you wanted to see on the navigation screen: navigation, car data, phone or radio and stay there. The Lexus seems to default back to the navigation screen after 30 seconds or so. After choosing the audio or climate, it goes back to the map display which is very distracting and dangerous since it draws your eyes away from the road. How do you stop this?
Also, when my wife or I got into the Mini, it just found a phone and hooked up. With the Lexus, we have to go into setup and choose a phone manually. If I set it up to find her phone, I have to manually choose my phone if I jump in to it to go to the store. Kinda a lot of bother when it should just find a phone and hook up.
Thanks for any answers. Will someone tell me to read the manual?

There is a setting that lets you decide whether it switches back to the map or stays on your last choice. It's going to be under something like "Screen Setup" which I believe is under the Info button on the side of the nav screen. Also watch out for setup screens that have multiple pages of settings. In a lot of cases it's not obvious that there's more info. Some screens use "1/5" meaning page 1 of 5, and other areas have scroll bars.
