Selecting an Approach

CAUTION: The approaches provided in the Jeppesen database

are for monitoring purposes only. The GPSMAP 495 is not an

IFR-approved instrument and should not be used as a primary

source of navigation guidance in instrument conditions.

When you select an approach, it replaces the destination airport with

the sequence of waypoints for the selected approach. Keep in mind

that the airport must have a published approach (GPS, RNAV, VOR,

NDB, localizer, or ILS) and only the final course segment (usually

from final approach fix to missed approach point) of the published

approach is available in the GPSMAP 495.

NOTE: When using a route, the selected approach for the

destination airport overrides your current route. The original

route is saved in the Route tab.

You can select an approach several ways:

Press Direct To and press MENU on the Go To Page, as

described in the steps to the right.
From the Active Go To (or Active Route) Page, press MENU.
From the Airport Details Page, select the Approach tab.


To select an approach for the destination airport:

1. Press

Direct To to show the Go To Page. Select the

destination.

2. Press

MENU to open the options menu. Highlight Select

Approach, and press ENTER.

3. Use the

ROCKER to select the approach from the window, and

press

ENTER. A Vectors? window appears. See the following

page for more information on vectors.

4. Use the

ROCKER to select Yes or No, and press ENTER. The

GPSMAP 495 removes the destination airport from the Go To
