3.3.6 Panning
The Panning Map Page function allows you to move the map beyond its
current limits without adjusting the map scale and to examine information at
the pointer location. When you select the panning function — by pressing the
small MFD knob — a target pointer flashes on the map display. A window also
appears at the top of the map display showing the latitude/longitude position of
the pointer, the ETE from your present position to the pointer, elevation at the
pointer, and bearing and distance to the pointer from your present position.
