WARNING: Do not use data link weather information for maneuvering in,
near, or around areas of hazardous weather. Information contained within
data link weather products may not accurately depict current weather condi-
tions.
WARNING: Do not use the indicated data link weather product age to
determine the age of the weather information shown by the data link weather
product. Due to time delays inherent in gathering and processing weather
data for data link transmission, the weather information shown by the data
link weather product may be significantly older than the indicated weather
product age.
SiriusXM Weather Products can be displayed on the Map Page and individually on the
Weather (WX) Page.
The setup menu for the Map Page controls the map range settings above which weather
products are decluttered from the display. If a map range larger than the weather product
map range setting is selected, the weather product data is removed from the map. For
weather products such as Lightning, and Storm Cells, the weather product is displayed
when a map range "smaller" than the weather product map range setting is selected
(Satellite Mosaic works inversely). The menu also provides a means for enabling/disabling
display of 'Airmets', 'Sigmets', 'Weather Data', 'NEXRAD', and/or 'Fronts' on the Map Page.
Additional information about the following can be displayed by panning over the display
on the Weather Page or the Map Page:
• Storm Cells
• SIGMETs
• AIRMETs
Additional information is also available for the following weather products on the
Weather Page (not displayed on the Map Page):
