On the ‘APPROACH’ information page, the on-screen ‘GOTO’ and ‘OK’ buttons which would

normally appear on the other waypoint information pages are replaced with ‘Vectors’ and ‘Goto FAF’.

Vectors— activates the final course segment of a published approach, guiding you to intercept

the final course prior to the first approach waypoint in the database (typically the final approach
fix [FAF]). With ‘Vectors’ selected, the course deviation needle on the graphic HSI will remain off
center until you’re established on the final approach course. The Map Page will display an
extension of the final approach course using a magenta double line. On the Active Route Page, a
‘Vector to Final’ symbol will appear adjacent to the first approach waypoint.

Goto FAF— activates a direct course from present position to the first approach waypoint in the

database (typically the final approach fix [FAF]). The course deviation needle on the graphic HSI
will guide you along the this direct course (not an extension of the final course as is the case for
the ‘Vectors’ selection).

’Vectors’ will guide you to an extension of the final course
segment, placing you on the final course prior to reaching
the FAF (final approach fix).

‘Goto FAF’ will guide you directly to the first approach
waypoint in the database.
