those of KJFK (figure 3-16). If
necessary, the latitude and longi-
tude may be entered manually.
8. When all information on the
Initialization page is correct, move
the cursor to Ok? and press
F
to move on.
9. The VFR page will be displayed to notify you that the GPS is for
VFR use only.
10. The Data Base page will now be displayed with the cursor over
Acknowledge?. Line 1 indicates whether an Americas, Atlantic,
or Pacific data base is being used. If the data base is current, line
3 will show the date when the
data base expires (figure 3-17).
If, on the other hand, the data
base is out of date, line 3 shows
the date that it expired
(figure 3-18). The KLN 35A will
still function with an out of date
data base; however, you must
exercise extreme caution and
always verify that the data base
information is correct before using
information from an out-of-date
data base. Press
F
to acknowl-
edge the information on the Data Base page.
WARNING: The accuracy of the data base information is
assured only if the data base is current. Operators using an out-
of-date data base do so entirely at their own risk.
A waypoint page for the waypoint which was active when the KLN
35A was last turned off will be displayed on the screen. If the last
active waypoint was an airport, the APT 4 page showing the airport’s
communications frequencies will be
displayed (figure 3-19). We thought
you’d like that! Almost always, the
waypoint which was active when you
last turned the KLN 35A off is the air-
port where you landed. Therefore,
when you get ready to depart, the air-
port communication frequencies for that airport will automatically be
displayed for you!
