 ```
 
+If you set up a single Map ID in Google Cloud Console with both Light and Dark color schemes, point both keys at the same id and the map will pick up Google's `colorScheme` automatically:
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <ScriptGoogleMaps
+    :map-ids="{ light: 'YOUR_MAP_ID', dark: 'YOUR_MAP_ID' }"
+    :center="{ lat: -33.8688, lng: 151.2093 }"
+    :zoom="12"
+  />
+</template>
+```
+
+::callout{color="amber"}
+Google Maps treats both `mapId` and `colorScheme` as init-only options. Toggling color mode tears down and re-creates the basic `Map` instance (preserving the user's pan/zoom). Child components (markers, info windows, overlays) are remounted against the new map automatically.
+::
+
 This auto-detects `@nuxtjs/color-mode` if installed. You can also control it manually with the `colorMode` prop:
