Map Key Question (from attached document)

The Tactile Graphic rule book doesn’t go over the instance I have in a social studies book that is teaching a younger student to make map keys. Some of the maps already have Map Key as a heading above the key with a centered heading above the map. The other maps don’t have a heading above them, so of course I’ll put the word (Key:) in 7-5 before the key.

My question is about the maps that already have (Map Key) above the key, since a good bit of those maps are teaching how to make maps and keys and some of them do not. Sometimes (Map Key) appears by itself as an individual heading, or has part of the key labels under it and the student has to make the rest of the key; so in these section you would just follow print. Since these headings follow a centered heading (Map Key) would be a cell-5 heading.

To keep consistency throughout the Volume would it be acceptable to put (Map Key) as a cell-5 heading above each of the keys it appears, including the ones the transcriber has to make, or to put it in 7-5? If (Map Key) is kept as a cell-5 heading to keep consistency, should a (colon) be placed after it or left off? If (Map Key) is placed in 7-5 above the key would you maintain the print wording, or change (Map Key to Key:)?

Thank for your answer!
