Default Navigation colors and dash light, auto door locks and bluetooth audio?

Hey all, forgive me if this is somewhere already in the forum...

Ive been trying to set my 2011 ISF up the way I like it and have a couple questions I cant seem to figure out on my own... Apologies if this is covered somewhere already...

3 questions really :

1) During day, with head lights on or off can I have my map stay black? Not off, but I prefer the look of a black back ground on the map, but it only does it with the head lights on and at night, when it senses its dark enough for auto headlights? Is that a setting I can change? And at night id like the brightness all the way up on the gauges with out the map being the beige/white, that is too blinding at night? So in short, id like a black map, and brightness all the way up on the rest of the interior lights, during day and night.

2) Is there a setting that can be done either myself or at dealer that will auto lock the doors after i exit the vehicle? Say i come home, park, get out of the car, walk away with out physically touching the black button on door handle, or keys fob button. Will the door lock themselves? Id like them to lock after say 30 seconds or 60 seconds, incase i were to inadvertanty forget to physically lock the car.

3)Is bluetooth audio typically quieter than the other modes? I have iPhone, and bluetooth audio i feel like has to be almost turned up all the way on to level 55-60 in the car. Yes my phone volume is all the way up already as well, that was my first thought.

Thanks in advance!

Not sure about the first two, I turned my nav screen off the day I bought the car and haven't used it since aside from adjusting AC. Bluetooth is quieter in my car as well, but I have an 08 that requires an aftermarket solution, Ive since just replaced it with an AUX cord.

The only thing I can think of is to cover the sensor on the dash that indicates auto for night. There's a black circular there.

Settings/Display tap down on the brightness 4-5 times ought to deepen the background color.
No Auto Lock except if you (accidentally) press the Fob Unlock...60 sec later it relocks.
Check the tone settings of the BT mode. All modes are set separately, jack 'em up a bit.

Take to the dealer. I have auto lock on my car. Walk away and it locks. Get close and it unlocks. I never touch my fob unless I need to use the trunk.
