Vertical Navigation - VNAV
With the profile set, the vertical speed required
(VSR) is displayed on the
vertical navigation page
.
Expect the following to occur when using the vertical
navigation feature:
• At one minute prior to reaching the initial descent
point, a message “Approaching VNAV Profile”
occurs. The descent angle will also lock to pre-
vent changes in speed from altering the profile.
• If selected, the vertical speed required (VSR) read-
out on the default NAV and map pages will show
the desired vertical speed to maintain the proper
descent angle.
• At 500 feet above the target altitude, an
“Approaching Target Altitude” message is pro-
vided. The VSR readout on the default NAV and
map pages is blanked out, at this point.
Vertical navigation messages can be turned on or
off. (By default the messages are off.) Turning the mes-
sages off allows you to keep the profile settings you’ve
entered previously, without having them generate mes-
sages when the feature isn’t needed.

messages:
1. Press
MENU

page options menu.
2. With “VNAV Messages On?” highlighted,

press

.

MENU
key.

knob to highlight
