3.1 INTRODUCTION
NOTE: Refer to the Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) for limitations.
The G1000 Engine Indication System (EIS) for the Beechcraft A36/G36 displays critical engine, electrical, fuel,
and other system parameters on the left side of the Multi Function Display (MFD) during normal operations. In
Reversionary Mode, the display unit is re-configured to present Primary Flight Display (PFD) symbology together
with the EIS (refer to the System Overview for information about Reversionary Mode).

Figure 3-1 Multi Function Display
EIS information is presented in three displays, accessed using the ENGINE Softkey on the MFD:
• Engine Display – Default display, shows all critical engine, fuel, and electrical indicators
• Lean Display – Provides engine leaning information
• System Display – Shows numeric readouts of critical engine, fuel, and electrical indications
The Engine Manifold Pressure Gauge and Tachometer are present at the top of all three displays.
The EIS instrument types include gauges, horizontal bar indicators, bar graphs, and numeric readouts. Green
bands indicate normal ranges of operation; yellow and red bands indicate caution and warning, respectively.
Pointers, bars, and readouts appear in white to indicate normal operation and change to yellow or red when
parameters are in caution or warning ranges. If sensory data to an instrument becomes invalid or unavailable,
a red “X” is shown across the instrument. The EIS automatically switches to the default Engine Display when
certain parameters are exceeded while showing one of the other EIS displays.
