The following limitations are applicable to the FMS:
- The Honeywell Flight Management System (FMS) Pilot's Operating
Manual, Honeywell Publication Number A28-1146-122-00, August
1997 edition (or later revision of the manual) for the software
version NZ4.8, Honeywell Publication Number A28-1146-133-00,
February 1999 edition (or later revision of the manual) for the

- FMS instrument approaches must be accomplished in accordance
with approved instrument approach procedures that are retrieved
from the FMS navigation data base. The FMS data base must

procedures is prohibited with the FMS operating in the degrade or
dead reckoning mode (DGR or DR annunciation set on PFD).
- Operation above 72° 30.0' north latitude and below 59° 30.0' south
latitude is prohibited due to unreliable magnetic heading.

the waypoints and altitudes displayed on the FMS with those on the

procedure and transition are selected.
- The Flight Director must be coupled to the LNAV mode (autopilot
