Table 6-6 Terrain Proximity and Colors
Obstacles are displayed only at certain map zoom ranges, on certain maps, and will only be displayed if an
obstacle database is loaded on the SD card. In addition, all map zoom ranges are dependent on the zoom range
setting in the Navigation Map. If the zoom range on the Navigation Map is adjusted to below 20 nm, the highest
zoom range on all other maps is also adjusted proportionally.
Table 6-7 shows the map pages and the highest zoom range at which obstacles are displayed.

LIMITATIONS
Terrain Proximity displays altitudes of terrain and obstructions relative to the aircraft position and altitude
with reference to a database that may contain inaccuracies. Terrain and obstructions are shown only if they
are in the database. Terrain and obstacle information should be used as an aid to situational awareness. They
should never be used to navigate or maneuver around terrain.
Note that all obstructions may not be available in the terrain and obstacle database. No terrain and obstacle
information is shown without a valid 3D GPS position.
