Narrative:
We received a clearance to fly the RNAV 19R visual approach. We were confused. All we had for approach plates on the current garmin plates was the RNAV LNAV 19R. We thought the controller cleared us to intercept the RNAV VNAV course inbound and comply with those altitudes. We did not know at the current time that the phenom 300 and the garmin avionics do not contain the appropriate [plate] procedures. Once we tried to fly what we thought was the RNAV visual the approach controller corrected us and gave us vectors. First I should communicate a lot stronger with ATC that we were confused by the clearance. A better understanding that the garmin is unable to perform the approaches would've helped as well.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: EMB505 First Officer is issued a clearance to fly the RNAV 19R Visual Approach to LAS. Not finding this approach in the Garmin; he assumes he is to intercept the RNAV Runway 19R final approach course and fly visually to the runway. This is not correct and the Controller issues vectors.
