DISPLAYING TAWS INFORMATION
TAWS uses yellow (caution) and red (warning) to depict terrain and obstacles (with heights greater than 200
feet above ground level) alerts relative to aircraft altitude. The system adjusts colors as the aircraft altitude
changes. The colors and symbols in Figure 6-89 and Tables 6-16 and 6-17 represent terrain, obstacles, and
potential impact points.
