TERRAIN AWARENESS & WARNING SYSTEM
TAWS-A (Optional)
WARNING: The TAWS display shows supplemental information only. It should
not be used for navigation.
NOTE: Terrain data is not displayed when the aircraft is outside the installed
terrain database coverage area.
NOTE: TAWS operation is only available when the system is configured for
a TAWS-A installation.
NOTE: The Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) may not operate
reliably north of 89º North latitude and south of 89º South latitude. This is
due to limitations present within the Terrain database and the system’s ability
to process the data representing the affected areas (GRS 7800 installations
only).

2) Turn the small FMS Knob to select ‘Test TAWS System’.
