What does this mean?

2. Set deltaHtarg = 0 for smooth exit to the target height, before issuing the "Gorka" command
At the moment of issuing the "Gorka" command, the "Г" symbol is displayed on the display and 
the aiming ring moves up or down in a jump.

What does it mean "before issuing the gorka command"? What is a Gorka command, and how do/why should I issue it?

What does it mean "the aiming ring moves up or down in a jump"?

I'm having difficulty making sense of these statements.  Can someone please explain?

The "gorka" command is generally understood to mean a hi-rate change in flight altitude, usually upward. However, in the context of the MiG-29 manual, it can also mean downward.
These are safety maneuvers to reduce the risk of collision with a target or target debris.

If you lock someone with deltaH -6, outside missile range the circle will guide you to fly -6000m under them. 
 

Close to missile range, you get Gorka (r) and the circle will move to target altitude so you equalize altitude. 
 

It is saying you keep deltaH 0 after lock. There will be no sudden change in circle height as you approach missile range

Thank you both for the information.
