Activate a departure procedure
When you load a departure procedure, the rst leg of the proce-
dure from the departure runway is the active leg. Aer you take
o, the GTN provides guidance to the rst way-
point and then sequences through the remaining
waypoints in the procedure.
Note, however, the rst leg of a departure pro-
cedure may be a heading leg or a climbing turn to
a specied altitude. e GTN cannot provide lat-
eral guidance along such legs, and if your GTN is
not connected to an external baro (altitude) input,
you may need to manually activate a waypoint or
leg at the appropriate altitude to begin automatic
sequencing through the departure waypoints.
When a departure procedure includes a head-
ing leg, the GTN will show the label Vectors or
MANSEQ. A heading leg labeled MANSEQ is
complete when you join that leg. To continue y-
TIP
Departure procedures often contain heading legs (spe-
cific courses to or from a waypoint) and legs that end
at an altitude, not a specific waypoint. These may re-
quire extra touches to unsuspend the GPS. To learn
more about these different leg types, see “6.14 Points to
Remember for All Procedures and 9.7 Flight Plan Depic-
tion” in the GTN 625/635/650 Pilot’s Guide. Addi-
tional details are available in GNS 400(W)/500(W)
Series and GTN 6XX/7XX Series Instrument Procedure
Leg Awareness (available from Garmin). Also review
how your autopilot and other equipment handles these
leg types.
