Abstract
A display in an image display device displays images. A processor generates an image for display on the display. A map provider provides a map image to the processor. An image provider provides a display image associated with a type of a function item. An acknowledging unit acknowledges a user input. When the acknowledging unit acknowledges an input to display the function item, the processor causes the display to display the map image and the display image associated with the user input. When the display image for a predetermined function item is displayed, the processor displays the map image in a blurred manner.
