2)
Press the
CLD TOP

products is mutually exclusive. When Cloud Tops is activated on the MAP - WEATHER DATA LINK (XM)
Page, the system disables the Echo Tops weather product.

SIRIUSXM LIGHTNING
NOTE:
SiriusXM Lightning data cannot be displayed at the same time as optional WX-500 Stormscope
lightning is selected for display.
The SiriusXM Lightning weather product shows the approximate location of cloud-to-ground lightning
strikes. A strike icon represents a strike that has occurred within a two-kilometer region. The exact location
of the lightning strike is not displayed.
