Fuel calculations are based on the displayed fuel remaining (GAL REM) and the fuel flow totalizer. The fuel
remaining can be adjusted using the following softkeys:
• DEC FUEL – Decreases totalizer-based fuel remaining in one-gallon increments
• INC FUEL – Increases totalizer-based fuel remaining in one-gallon increments
• RST FUEL – Resets totalizer-based fuel remaining (GAL REM) relative to the aircraft’s fuel capacity and sets the
displayed fuel used (GAL USED) to zero
Accessing the EIS System Display:
1) Press the ENGINE Softkey.
2) Press the SYSTEM Softkey.
3) To return to the default Engine Display, press the ENGINE or BACK Softkey.
Adjusting the fuel totalizer quantity:
From the System Display, press the DEC FUEL or INC FUEL Softkey to change the fuel remaining (GAL REM).
Resetting the fuel totalizer and displayed fuel remaining (GAL REM):
From the System Display, press the RST FUEL Softkey.
