TRAFFIC ANNUNCIATION

NOTE:

If a second TA appears or if the number of TAs displayed decreases then increases, new aural and

visual alerts are generated.

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

various 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 2-33) appears to the top left of the Attitude

Indicator for five 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).

TAWS ANNUNCIATIONS

Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) annunciations appear on the PFD to the upper left of

the Altimeter. Refer to the Hazard Avoidance Section and Appendix A for information on TAWS alerts and
annunciations.
