If you program the [Right Chevron] and [Left Chevron[ buttons for Step turns, when one of these buttons is
pushed, the pilot will execute a port or starboard turn. The turn will terminate when the programmed step angle
is reached. The step angles are programmable from 1 to 90 degrees. Multiple pushes of these buttons will
result in a turn through an angle equal to the sum of the angles per push. For example, if you have programmed
the pilot for 10 degree steps, ve pushes of the [Right Chevron] button will turn you 50 degrees to starboard.
180 degrees is the maximum turn sum.
