appear on the display when your aircraft is off
the desired course.

when your aircraft is off course to the left, and it
points to the left when your aircraft is off course
to the right.

than the number of degrees indicated by the
C
OURSE DEVIATION ARROW.
Note 2: If the overflow indicator “u” appears
on the right side, select a heading plus 10 de-

cator “t” appears on the left side, select a head-
ing minus 10 degrees.

In the CDI mode, the Auto Bearing Center Sys-
tem (ABCS) adds or subtracts the number of de-
grees indicated by the CDI from the Omni Bear-
ing Selector (OBS).
