Question Garmin G5 question

Hey all,
We've recently updated the panel on our C172 with 2 Garmin G5's. We're having some issues with the headings matching up (to themselves or to anything actually!), but that's being taken care of by the installation shop in the next week or so.

However, one question I have is this. One of the features of the G5 is to give an audible beep when you get close the altitude you set on the altitude bug. The installer is saying that's not possible without the autopilot but I don't really believe him on that. According to the manual on section 2.1.3.2 it specifically says

The Altitude Alerting function provides the pilot with a visual alert and tone when approaching the Selected Altitude.
My question is, does anyone here have the Garmin G5's without an autopilot that has an audible tone tied to the altitude bug??

Thanks!
