This section briefly describes maintenance procedures that are done by the aircraft owner (or pilot).
This information is also available in the MFD Pilot's Guides for all aircraft.
This section contains the following information:

●
Section 7.2, MFD Data Updates

7.1 Cleaning the EX5000 Screen

If your EX5000 screen should become dirty due to fingerprints or dust, clean the screen using the following
materials and methods:
●
A clean, soft lint free cloth such as 3M Ultra-Brite Cloth # 2011 or similar.
● A cleaning solution composed of de-ionized water or isopropyl alcohol (IPA).
Always apply the cleaning solution directly onto the cloth. Never spray cleaner directly onto the screen.
Use caution when using IPA as it is flammable.
Note:
Using any other chemicals or materials voids the warranty.
The EX5000 screen is made of a plastic film that is vulnerable to scratches, damage by sharp articles or
improper cleaners. Use care when cleaning.

7.2 MFD Data Updates

Avidyne makes use of three different types of data that can optionally be uploaded to or downloaded
from your EX5000:
●
NavData—For the Map Page, Avidyne uses NavData from Jeppesen Sanderson, Inc. it is your
duty as pilot in command to ensure that the data you fly with remains up to date.
™
● CMax Chart Data—An optional Avidyne feature that allows you to view JeppView chart data on
your EX5000.
™
●
EMax Total Engine Management—EMax tracks engine and other data, which you can
download from the EX5000 to a PC for analysis.
For software part numbers 530-00180-( ) and above, you can use a Zip Drive or USB Flash
Note:
Memory Drive to move data between your PC and the EX5000.
For software part numbers prior to 530-00180-( ), only a Zip Drive Dataloader can be used.
➥
The Zip Drive or USB Flash Memory Drive are referred to here as a Portable USB Device.
