Monitor VDEV , FPV on PFD Use altitude indication versus

and XTK error (on the ND). V-DEV distance to the runway to
monitor the vertical navigation.

If the vertical guidance is unsatisfactory, revert to FPA

FPA NAV or consider the go-around.
If the lateral guidance is unsatisfactory, perform a go-around.
