TRAFFIC ANNUNCIATION

The G1000 System displays traffic symbolically on the Inset Map (PFD), the Navigation Map Page (MFD), and

other MFD page maps. Refer to the Hazard Avoidance section and Appendix F for more details about the Traffic
Information Service (TIS). When a Traffic Advisory (TA) is detected, the following automatically occurs:

• The PFD Inset Map is enabled, displaying traffic

• A flashing black-on-yellow ‘TRAFFIC’ annunciation (Figure 2-39) appears to the top left of the Attitude

Indicator for 5 seconds and remains displayed until no TAs are detected in the area

• A single “TRAFFIC” aural alert is generated, unless an optional Traffic Advisory System (TAS) is installed

(refer to the applicable TAS documentation for alerts generated by TAS equipment)

If additional TAs appear, new aural and visual alerts are generated.
