Chart Auto-Selection

The Chart page will automatically select a chart to display when the page is
opened.
NOTE: The chart for the destination airport or loaded approach will
automatically be selected.
• While on the ground, the nearest airport diagram will be displayed.
• If an approach is loaded in the selected GPS navigator, the chart for that
approach will be displayed. In some cases, the pilot may be prompted to
select the correct chart from a list of possible matches.
• If an approach is not loaded, the airport diagram for the destination
airport will be displayed.
• If no destination airport exists, the nearest airport diagram will be
displayed.
NOTE: Automatic chart selection only occurs when the Chart page is
opened. For example, if a new approach is loaded while the Chart page is
open, a different MFD page must be selected and the Chart page re-opened
for the new approach chart to be automatically displayed.
When the pilot has manually selected a chart to display, a different chart will
not be automatically selected until one of the following events occurs:
• The aircraft takes off or lands
• A new or different approach is loaded
1. While viewing the Chart page of the FPL page group, press the SELECT soft key
to activate chart selection.
