Default Is there a way to keep the audio/radio displayed on the monitor?

The default display on the GPS monitor/screen seems to be either "screen off" or "map". Is there a way to adjust the settings so that the audio screen stays on? Right now, every time I want to change the station or browse the radio, I have to push the "audio" tab first. Audio function only displays for a minute or so before switching back to the default blank screen or map. Would be nice to have the screen display audio full-time when I'm not using the GPS function.

You need to change the option in the setup not to do that.

Good to know it can be done. Where can I find instructions on how to change the options?

It is located on page 298 of your Lexus 2012 manual. General Settings -> Auto Screen Change

I was able to get mine to display the station info when i change stations, but would like to have it showing the info at all times. I pay extra for satellite radio and want to see what is on...

That's dependent on the radio station and also if the signal is strong enough to get the text info. As a safety, it does now allow to see the full info when the text is motion unless you stop and hit the text button.

Off thing is that XM, it allows you to see all regardless which does not make sense lol!
