VOR. Verify that the position is correct before proceeding.
5. Press the D button. A page with the words DIRECT TO is now
displayed on the left. In step 6 you will enter the identifier of the destina-

port if the identifier is all letters. For example, LAX becomes KLAX. If
the airport identifier contains any numbers, there is no prefix. For
example, TX04 is entered as TX04. For other areas of the world the
airport identifier entered should be identical to how it is charted.

flashing segment to the second character position. Rotate the left inner
knob to select the second character of the identifier. Use this procedure

name, and position of the airport just entered. Confirm that the correct
airport is displayed. Press E a second time to approve the airport

knob is rotated one step counterclockwise, you will get an enlarged
Navigation page occupying the entire screen.
