out of standby into
the above display

If your aircraft has a
squat switch and you

out of standby, the
SKY899 automatically
switches out of
standby
8 to 10
seconds after takeoff.
2. To manually switch
into standby from the traffic screen, press the button
labeled

The SKY899 goes into standby and the display switches back
to the standby screen. (If your aircraft has a squat switch, the

SKY899 will not go into standby while airborne.)
If your aircraft has a squat switch, the
SKY899 also goes into
standby automatically,
24 seconds after landing. This delay
allows the
SKY899 to remain out of standby during a touch-
