• A ‘START PROC TRN’ prompt will appear in the
lower right corner of the display to advise the 
pilot when the aircraft is at a safe distance to 
initiate a procedure turn. The procedure turn is 
displayed on the Map Page, but guidance through 
the turn itself is not provided.
• Alerts for proper holding pattern entry (e.g.’
HOLD DIRECT’) are displayed in the lower right 
corner of the display. Waypoint sequencing is 
automatically suspended (indicated by ‘SUSP 
directly above the OBS Key) at the holding 
waypoint. Press the OBS Key again to return 
to automatic waypoint sequencing. For course 
reversals, waypoint sequencing is suspended 
for one trip around the holding pattern only 
(after which it will return to automatic waypoint 
sequencing).
• The CDI will guide the pilot through a DME arc.
Just keep the needle centered to fly along the arc. 
When using an autopilot, the course select on the 
CDI (or HSI) must be periodically updated with 
the desired track (DTK).
• When crossing the missed approach point, ‘SUSP’
will appear above the OBS Key, indicating that 
automatic sequencing of waypoint is suspended at 
the missed approach point, and a ‘from’ indication 
will appear on the CDI (or HSI).

1) Press the OBS Key. The next waypoint in
the approach (MAHP; in this case ‘SWARM’ 
intersection) is automatically offered as the 
destination waypoint.
2) Follow the missed approach procedures, as
published on the approach plate, for proper 
climb and heading instructions.
3) An alert message in the lower right-hand corner
of the screen recommends entry procedures for 
the holding pattern (e.g., ‘HOLD TEARDROP’). 
When flying the holding pattern, a timer 
appears on the Default NAV Page. The timer 
automatically resets on the outbound side of 
the hold when the aircraft turns abeam the 
hold waypoint. The timer again resets as the 
pilot turns inbound (within approximately 30° 
of the inbound course). This allows use of 
standard timing (typically one minute) to fly 
the inbound and outbound legs of the hold.
4) The GNS 430 provides course guidance only
on the inbound side of the holding pattern. 
When leaving the holding pattern to re-fly 
the approach (or another approach) press the 
PROC Key to ‘Select Approach?’ or ‘Activate 
Approach?’ as previously described. (Or, use the 
Direct-to Key to select another destination.)
