Depiction Of Obstacles And Wires - Garmin G500 Instructions Manual

Turbulence detection does not detect all turbulence
especially that which is occurring in clear air. The display of
turbulence indicates the possibility of Severe or greater
turbulence, as defined in the Aeronautical Information
Manual.

Only obstacles and wires within 2,000 ft vertically of the
aircraft will be drawn on the Map and Terrain pages.

The dedicated Terrain page will always depict point obstacles at zoom scales of
10 nautical miles or less and depict wire obstacles at zoom scales of 5 nautical
miles or less. The obstacle or wire overlay icon will be shown near the bottom of
the display when the obstacle or wire depiction is active based on the zoom
scale.
7.10.2 Map Page
The Map page may be configured to depict point obstacles and wire obstacles at
various zoom scales, or to not depict point obstacles or wire obstacles at all, by
the pilot by using the Map page menu. The obstacle or wire overlay icon will be
shown near the bottom of the display when the obstacle or wire overlay is active
based on the current zoom scale and setting selected by the pilot.
The settings chosen by the pilot on the Map page menu (including obstacle and
wire display ranges) are saved over a power cycle.
