NOTE Displaying the ownship position symbol on the airport
diagram is designed to assist flight crews in orienting
themselves on the airport surface and improving pilot positional
awareness during taxi operations. This function is not to be
used as the basis for ground maneuvering and is limited to
ground operations.

Appropriate flight crew member training and procedures
emphasize set up and operation such that the display should
not become a distraction or increase heads down time.
Operators may require additional authorizations to use this
function in flight.
