Icing Potential (Cip And Sld) (Icng) - Garmin G1000 Pilot's Manual

HAZARD AVOIDANCE
ICING (CIP & SLD)
Icing data cannot be displayed at the same time as NEXRAD data.
NOTE:
Current Icing Product (CIP) data shows a graphical view of the current icing environment (Figure 6-42).
Icing severity is displayed in four categories: light, moderate, severe, and extreme (not specific to aircraft
type). The CIP product is not a forecast, but a presentation of the conditions at the time of the analysis.
Supercooled Large Droplet (SLD) icing conditions are characterized by the presence of relatively large,
super cooled water droplets indicative of freezing drizzle and freezing rain aloft. SLD threat areas are depicted
as magenta dots, which may also be displayed over the CIP colors.
Displaying Icing data:
1) Select the Weather Data Link (XM) Page.
2) Press the MORE WX Softkey.
3) Press the ICNG Softkey.
4) Select the desired altitude level: 1,000 feet up to 30,000 feet. Press the NEXT or PREV Softkey to cycle through
the altitude softkeys. The ICNG Softkey label changes to reflect the altitude selected.
To display the Icing Potential legend (Figure 6-43), press the LEGEND Softkey when Icing data is displayed.
