4.7 AbNORMAL OPERATION

Abnormal operation of the G1000 includes equipment failures of the G1000 components and failure of

associated equipment, including switches and external devices.

STUCk MICROPHONE

If the push-to-talk (PTT) Key becomes stuck, the COM transmitter stops transmitting after 35 seconds of

continuous operation. An alert appears on the PFD to advise the crew of a stuck microphone.

The COM1 MIC or COM2 MIC Key Annunciator on the Audio Panel flashes as long as the PTT Key remains

stuck.

COM TUNING FAILURE

the radio in which the tuning failure occurred. Depending on the failure mode, a red X may appear on the
frequency display.
