FUEL PAGE

The Fuel Page is accessible by pressing the FUEL soft-
key. All readouts for this page are digital and are separated
into two categories: Fuel and Fuel Calculations. Beneath
the tachometer are readouts for the fuel flow, fuel quantity
and fuel temperature.
The fuel calculation portion of the Fuel Page is based
on the fuel flow totalizer and displays the following:
• GAL REM – Current fuel remaining in gallons as
set by the pilot and adjusted for fuel burn since
last set.
• GAL USED – Quantity of fuel used in gallons.
• ENDUR – Flight time remaining with fuel
onboard (HH:MM when more than an hour
remains).
• RANGE NM – Aircraft range in nautical miles.
Fuel calculations do not use the aircraft fuel quantity
indicators and are calculated from the last time the fuel
was reset.
If desired, the pilot can utilize the DEC FUEL, INC
FUEL and RST FUEL softkeys to adjust the amount of
fuel remaining for totalizer calculations.
The second-level softkeys are available by pressing the
FUEL softkey:
• DEC FUEL – Decreases totalizer based fuel quan-
tity remaining in one-gallon increments
• INC FUEL – Increases totalizer based fuel quan-
tity remaining in one-gallon increments
• RST FUEL – Resets totalizer-based fuel quantity
remaining relative to the aircraft fuel capacity and
sets the GAL USED display to zero
