ILS or MLS

[1R].
ILS/MLS is auto-tuned when approach is inserted in ACTIVE F-PLN.
See approach preparation in Ch 5 - CRUISE
PFD:
− FMA provides guidance status,
− Speed scale shows VAPP when speed is managed,
− At the bottom, ILS ident and DME when available as tuned on RAD
NAV page,
− Vertical deviation symbol which, if accuracy is high, may confirm
glide slope interception.
Caution
Biased DME are not automatically tuned by the FMS. In this case PFD
does not display the DME distance.
The response of a biased DME is modified such that it indicates
distance to threshold.
ND:
− ILS APP is displayed at top of screen,
− Final descent is shown by arrow,
− Final track, distance to threshold are displayed,
− Actual wind is shown and may be correlated with VAPP variation
(ground speed mini function).
