The Map mode provides a moving map for a graphic display of your flight including the surrounding area as
well as navigation information. Maps are generally drawn with Ground Track magnetic North at the top of the
display (Up). You can customize each of the four Map pages for the Map scale and the information displayed,
such as Airports, VORs, NDBs, Intersections, User Waypoints, Airspace, Traffic, Hi and Lo Airways, Flight Plan
course, or Nav items. Other information is available depending on equipment installation and services.

the degree symbol. Magnetic North is used for normal operation and is not indicated. In some situations, True
