Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) annunciations appear on the PFD to the upper left of the

Altimeter. In TAWS-A installations, additional annunciations also appear to the upper right of the Airspeed
Indicator.    Refer  to  the  Hazard  Avoidance  Section  and  Appendix  A  for  information  on  TAWS  alerts  and
annunciations.

The  Altitude  Alerting  function  provides  visual  and  audio  alerts  when  approaching  the  Selected  Altitude.

Whenever the Selected Altitude is changed, Altitude Alerting is reset. Altitude Alerting is based on the altitude
information shown on PFD1. Altitude Alerting is independent of the AFCS.

The following occur when approaching the Selected Altitude:

• Upon passing through 1000 feet of the Selected Altitude, the Selected Altitude Box changes to black text on

a light blue background, flashes for five seconds, and an aural tone is generated.

• When the aircraft passes within 200 feet of the Selected Altitude, the Selected Altitude changes to light blue

text on a black background and flashes for five seconds.

• After reaching the Selected Altitude, if the aircraft flies outside the deviation band (±200 feet of the Selected

Altitude), the Selected Altitude Box changes to yellow text on a black background, flashes for five seconds. In
addition, two aural tones are generated followed by an “Altitude” voice alert.
