Garmin 430wSelecting and Entering an IFR Approach Procedure • Press the PROC Button to activate the menu • Select the desired procedure
Garmin 430wSelecting an IFR Approach Procedure • Available Procedures • Select the desired procedure • Press ENT to load or activate
Garmin 430wSelecting an IFR Approach Transition Procedure • Select the desired transition • Press ENT to load or activate
Garmin 430wGPS Guidance on an IFR Approach Procedure For precision approaches and some non-precision approaches, a reminder window appears indicating that GPS guidance on such approaches is strictly for monitoring only — use the VLOC receivers and external CDI (or HSI) for primary navigation. To confirm this reminder, highlight ‘Yes?’ and press the ENT Key.
Garmin 430wActivating Approach Procedure A selected approach may be activated or loaded. Activating the approach overrides the ‘ENROUTE’ portion of the active flight plan, proceeding directly to the ‘APPROACH’ portion (for a full approach, directly to the initial approach fix). Activating the approach also initiates automatic CDI scaling transition as the approach progresses. In many cases, it may be easiest to ‘Load’ the full approach while still some distance away, ENROUTE to the destination airport.

Garmin Messenger and Indicators Dead reckoning becomes active after a loss of GPS position while you are navigating using an active flight plan. A pop-up message will appear and you must clear the message before continuing operation.
Conclusion on the G430W • When navigating with the buttons/knobs/switches and you need a quick return to the main NAV screen, press and hold the CLR for 2 seconds • If you twist, turn, press something then expect, anticipate, and see a given reaction some place on the Garmin panel • There are numerous short-cuts in using the Garmin, be proactive in learning them • Generally pressing a button twice, the action will sent you to the start of the source
