When is Go-Around annunciation shown on the Upper Display Unit?

The Go-Around annunciation on the Upper Display Unit is tied to radio altitude during the approach. It is designed to prompt you to execute a missed approach if the landing conditions aren’t met, and it appears when you descend below a specific altitude on the approach. In this case, that threshold is 2000 feet radio altitude. Once you descend through 2000 ft RA, the UDP can show the Go-Around reminder to ensure you act promptly if you need to go around, rather than waiting too late near the runway. So, the reminder appears as you go below 2000 ft RA, not above it or at a later altitude, and not never.
