nav/radio question

I just got a 2006 Z4 Coupe with navigation. The dealer is still ordering the user manuals for me but want to know something about the radio/nav

When I have the nav on, it seems i can switch between the radio and nav. But when in radio there's a big black box below the radio station/song name. Is there a way for the map to show there?

There's a split screen option under settings, give that a try.

Split screen gives me the nav stuff on the right and the radio on the left. But in the left part of the screen the radio uses the top 20% and the rest is just black. It seems like the radio could use the full thing or show a smaller map.

That's to display stuff like song and artist name and stuff. You can also hit a button to switch between the radio screen and back to the nav screen on the fly.

Actually it sounds like he's describing the area where the list of saved station pre-sets would appear. If you don't have any pre-sets saved, then I could fathom that area being completely blank (althoug I've never seen this, myself)
