INTRODUCTION
MFD POWER-UP
Powering up the MFD is part of the system power up
procedure. See the G1000 System Overview Pilot’s Guide
for details.
Splash Screen Information
The MFD splash screen (Figure 8.1.1) displays general
system information such as software version and database
versions to the pilot when the G1000 system powers
up. To acknowledge the splash screen information and
proceed to the Navigation Map Page press the ENT key or
the right most softkey twice.
NOTE: Screen images in this pilot’s guide are
subject to change and may not reflect current
G1000 system software.
MFD BACKLIGHTING
See the Primary Flight Display Pilot’s Guide for
instructions on adjusting MFD backlighting.
MFD SOFTKEYS
The MFD softkeys are located below the display screen
and provide control over flight management functions
including GPS Navigation and flight planning. Figure
8.1.3 shows an MFD flowchart identifying what functions
are available via the softkey labels.
TRAFFIC – pressing the TRAFFIC softkey
displays/removes Mode S Traffic on the
Navigation Map.
TOPO – pressing the TOPO softkey displays
or removes topographic information on the
Navigation Map.
TERRAIN – pressing the TERRAIN softkey
displays/removes terrain information on
the Navigation Map.
BACK – pressing the BACK softkey displays
the ENGINE and MAP top level softkeys.
DCLTR (declutter) – pressing the DCLTR softkey
removes map information in three levels.
CHKLIST (checklist) – pressing the CHKLIST
softkey displays the Checklist Page.
REVERSIONARY MODE
Should a failure occur in either display, the G1000
automatically enters reversionary mode. In reversionary mode, critical flight instrumentation is combined
with engine instrumentation on the remaining display.
Minimal navigation capability is also available on the
reversionary mode display. See the G1000 System Overview Pilot’s Guide for a detailed explanation of the reversionary mode.

The MFD softkeys perform the following functions:
ENGINE – Pressing the ENGINE softkey makes
available the LEAN and SYSTEM softkeys which
in turn access the Lean Page and the System Page,
respectively.
MAP – pressing the MAP softkey enables the follow-
ing softkeys:

INTRODUCTION
ELECTRONIC CHECKLISTS (OPTIONAL)
The G1000 Multi Function Display installed in the
A36/G36 provides optional checklists which allow a pilot
to quickly find the proper procedure on the ground and
during each phase of flight.
NOTE: The checklist information described in this
section is not intended to replace the checklist
information described in the Beechcraft A36/G36
Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) and the Pilot
Safety and Warning Supplements document.
NOTE: Garmin is not responsible for the content
of the checklists. User-defined checklists are created by the aircraft manufacturer. Additionally,
modifications or updates to the checklists are
coordinated through the aircraft manufacturer.
The user cannot edit the checklists.
Displaying the Checklist Page
The Splash Screen displays the current checklist file
that is installed for the Beechcraft A36/G36 aircraft. If no
checklist is present, then the Spalsh Sceen displays the text
“CHECKLIST FILE NOT PRESENT” and the CHKLIST
softkey is greyed out.
To select the Checklist Page:
1. From any page, press the
CHKLIST
softkey.
Selecting a Procedure Group
Depending on the specific airframe, there are a certain
number of groups of procedures with their respective
checklists available to the pilot.

INTRODUCTION
WORKING WITH MENUS
Much of the operation of the G1000 MFD is
accomplished using a menu interface. The G1000 has
a bezel-mounted dedicated menu key (MENU) when
pressed, displays a context-sensitive list of options. This
options list allows the pilot to access additional features
or make settings changes which specifically relate to the
currently displayed page. Some menus provide access to
additional submenus that are used to view, edit, select,
and review options. Some menus display ‘NO OPTIONS’
when there are no options for the page selected.
The main keys which are used in association with all
page group operations are listed below:
• CLR – erases information or cancels an entry.
Press and hold CLR to immediately display the
Navigation Map Page, regardless of the page
currently displayed.
• ENT – accepts a menu selection or data entry.
Approves an operation or completes data entry.
Also confirms information.
• BACK – resets the MFD softkeys to their default
settings (ENGINE, MAP, DCLTR, MODE, VIEW,
etc).
• DCLTR – removes information from the moving
map in a progressive manner with each key-press.
• MENU – displays a context-sensitive list of
options that allows access to additional features or
that allows the pilot to change the settings which
relate to the currently displayed page.
NOTE: Data is entered using the large and small
FMS knob. Practice with them to become efficient at entering data. This will greatly reduce
the amount time spent operating the MFD in
flight.
If there are more options than can be displayed turn
the FMS knob to scroll through the list to identify them.
In all cases, once the menu is displayed the FMS knob is
turned to highlight an item and the ENT key is pressed
to select that item or the CLR key removes the menu and
cancels the operation. Pressing the softkeys does not
display a menu or submenu.

page group and provides the pilot with the following
GPS/Navigation display capability:
• Map display showing airports, navaids, airspaces,
land data (highways, cities, lakes, rivers, borders,
etc.) with names (labels)
• Map pointer information (distance and bearing
to pointer, location of pointer, name and other
pertinent information)
• TIS Traffic Display
• Obstacle Display

Selecting a Map Range
The Navigation Map Page can be set to 23 different
range settings from 500 feet to 2000 nautical miles. The
current range is indicated in the lower right corner of the
Navigation Map Page and represents the top-to-bottom
distance covered by the map. To change the map range
turn the joystick counter-clockwise to zoom in, turn it
clockwise to zoom out.
Using the Auto Zoom Feature
The autozoom feature automatically adjusts the map
from an enroute range of 2000 nm through each lower
range, stopping at a range of 1.5 nm as the aircraft
approaches the destination waypoint. See the Map Setup
section in this MFD Pilot’s Guide for instructions on
enabling/disabling the autozoom feature.

Decluttering the Map
The Navigation Map Page can be quickly decluttered
by repeatedly pressing the DCLTR softkey until the desired
detail is displayed. The declutter level label is displayed
above the DCLTR softkey. Note that during an instrument
approach, automatic decluttering takes place. Table 8.2.1
lists the features that are turned off at each declutter
level.

Map Panning
Map panning moves the map beyond its current
limits without adjusting the map range. When the
panning function is selected by pushing in the joystick,
a panning arrow 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 bearing and
distance to the pointer from the aircraft’s present position,
and the elevation of the land at the position of the pointer.
When the panning arrow crosses an airspace boundary,
the boundary is highlighted and airspace information
is displayed at the top of the display. The information
includes the name and class of airspace, the ceiling in feet
expressed in Mean Seal Level (MSL), and the floor in feet
MSL.
NOTE: The airspace boundary stays highlighted
for approximately four seconds before returning
to normal shading.
To pan the map:
1. Push in the
joystick
to display the panning
arrow.
2. Push in and move the
joystick
in the general
direction of the desired destination to place
the panning arrow at the destination location. When the panning arrow is placed on an
object, the name of the object is highlighted
(even if the name wasn’t originally displayed
on the map). This feature applies to everything
displayed on the map except route lines. When
any map feature or object is selected on the
map display, features or objects are displayed
in the box located at the top of the display.
From here, the pilot can designate the waypoint
as the Direct-to destination. When the
panning arrow crosses an airspace boundary,
the boundary is highlighted and airspace information is displayed at the top of the display.
3. To remove the panning arrow and return to
the present position, push in the
joystick
