Caution indicates the existence of abnormal condi-
tions on the aircraft that may require pilot intervention.
A flashing “CAUTION” softkey annunciation and a single
aural tone (one chime) are used to alert the pilot of any
cautions. The flashing “CAUTION” annunciator contin
-
ues to flash until acknowledged by the pilot (by pressing
the CAUTION softkey).
An advisory provides general information to the pi
-
lot that may not need immediate attention. A flashing
“ADVISORY” softkey annunciation (no aural tone) is used
to alert the pilot of any message advisories. The flash-
ing “ADVISORY” annunciator continues to flash until
acknowledged by the pilot (by pressing the ADVISORY
softkey).
TRAFFIC ANNUNCIATION
NOTE: Refer to the Appendix for more details
about Traffic Information Service (TIS).
The G1000 system displays Traffic Information Service
(TIS) traffic on the PFD Inset Map and the MFD Naviga-
tion Map Page. When a traffic advisory (TA) is detected,
the following automatically occurs:
• The Inset Map is enabled and displays the traffic
• A single “TRAFFIC” aural alert is generated
• A flashing black-on-yellow “TRAFFIC” annuncia
-
tion appears to the top left of the Attitude indica-
tor (see Figure 2-2) for five seconds and remains
displayed until no TAs are detected in the area

NOTE: If a second TA appears or if the TAs dis-
played decrease and then increase, new aural
and visual alerts are generated.
