The G1000 offers a Profile View of terrain and obstacles relative to the aircraft’s current flight path and altitude
on the Navigation Map Page of the MFD. Profile View does not provide terrain or obstacle caution or warning
annunciations or voice alerts systems, nor does it display potential impact points inside the Profile View. The
colors and symbols in Figure 6-158 and Table 6-25 are used to represent terrain and obstacles.
