The EGPWS is automatically switched in case of a threat but suppressed if the following conditions are
met:
• Departure: During first 60 seconds after takeoff (after getting airborne). Therefore, the FMA modes
for thrust levers (TOGA, FLX, MAN TOGA, MAN MCT) and the SimOnGround flag are taken into
account.
• Approach: Gear down + (Flaps 3 or 4 (full))
• Approach: ILS is tuned and successful received and glideslope and localizer have both a deviation of
less than 2 dots
• GoAround: During first 60 seconds after GO AROUND. Therefore, the FMA modes for thrust levers
(TOGA, FLX, MAN TOGA, MAN MCT), flap position and flight status (GA) and the gear handle
movement into up position are taken into account.
Lowest and highest elevation
Minimum and maximum elevations encountered with selected range, are respectively displayed in this
square using the colors described below.
Terrain Display
The terrain appears in different colors and densities according to its relative height. The reference
altitude is projected downward from the actual aircraft altitude to provide a 30 second advanced
display of terrain when descending at more than 1000 FPM.
Indication
Description
High density red: Terrain is at least 2000 ft. above aircraft altitude.
High density yellow: Terrain is between 1000 ft. and 2000 ft. above aircraft
altitude
Low density green: Terrain is between -250 ft (gear down) or -500 ft (gear up) to
1000 ft above aircraft altitude.
Medium density green: Terrain is between 250 ft. (gear down) or 500 ft. (gear up)
to 1000 ft. below aircraft altitude.
High density green: Terrain is between 1000 ft. to 2000 ft. below aircraft altitude.
