U-boats used the usual navigation charts and methods, similar to those of every navy.

Red light helps adjust the human eye for night vision.

Dim blue light was used to warn the crew that the boat was in silent running mode.

Goggles were warn prior to going up top to adjust/accustom the eyes for night vision.
