NAVIGATION
Refer to Figure 5-13 for the following steps:
1) Within 30 nm of the destination airport, the GPS
400 switches from enroute to terminal mode (as
indicated in the lower left corner of the screen).
The switch to terminal mode is accompanied
by a gradual Course Deviation Indicator (CDI)
scale transition from 5.0 to 1.0 nm, full scale
deflection (Figure 5-14).

2) Several miles prior to reaching the IAF (LYH),
the pilot may wish to review the approach
sequence. Press the
FPL
Key to display the
Active Flight Plan Page. Press the small
right
knob, and then turn the large
right
knob to
review each segment of the approach (Figure
5-15). When finished, press the
FPL
Key again
to return to the previous page.

3) When approaching the IAF (LYH), a waypoint
alert (‘NEXT DTK 205°’) appears in the lower
right corner of the screen (Figure 5-16). As
the distance (DIS) to the IAF approaches zero,
the alert is replaced by a turn advisory (‘TURN
TO 205°’). Dial the outbound course of 205°
into the CDI (or HSI) using the OBS knob.
