Different symbols are used to distinguish between waypoint types.  The identifi ers for any on-screen 

waypoints can also be displayed. (By default the identifi ers are enabled.)  Special-use and controlled airspace 
boundaries appear on the map, showing the individual sectors in the case of Class B or Class C airspace. The 
following symbols are used to depict the various airports and navaids on the Map Page:

Airport with hard surface runway(s); Primary runway shown
Airport with soft surface runway(s) only
Private Airfi eld

The map display can be set to 23 different scale settings from 500 feet to 2000 nautical miles (statute and 

metric units are also available).  The scale is indicated in the lower left-hand corner of the map display, and 
represents the top-to-bottom distance covered by the map display.

1. Press the up arrow side of the RNG key to zoom out to a larger map area.

2. Press the down arrow side of the RNG key to zoom in to a smaller map area and more detail. 

An autozoom feature is available which automatically adjusts from an en-route scale of 2000 nm through 

each lower scale, stopping at a scale of 1.0 nm as you approach your destination waypoint. The autozoom 
feature is turned on/off from the map setup page described on page 35.

The Map Page also displays a background map showing lakes, rivers, coastlines, highways, railways and 

towns. When a map scale is selected below the lower limit at which the map detail was originally created, an 
“overzoom” indication appears on the map display, below the scale reading. “Overzoom” indicates that the 
detail at this scale may not accurately represent actual conditions (and extra caution should be observed when 
these scales are used for navigation).
