4.4.7.5 Inhibiting/Enabling TAWS Alerting
TAWS also has an inhibit mode that deactivates the PDA/FLTA aural and
visual alerts. Pilots should use discretion when inhibiting TAWS and always
remember to enable the system when appropriate. Only the PDA and FLTA
alerts are disabled in the inhibit mode.
NOTE: See AFMS for guidance on inhibiting TAWS.

4.4.7.6 Five-Hundred Aural Alert
The purpose of the aural alert message “Five-hundred” is to provide an advisory
alert that the aircraft is 500 feet above terrain. When the aircraft descends within
500 feet of terrain, the aural message “Five-hundred” is generated. There are no
display annunciations or pop-up alerts that accompany the aural message.
NOTE: The five-hundred aural callout provided by TAWS-B is not in relation
to the optional radar altimeter, if installed.
