Caption: Figure A1.

Channel maps at different vrad bins. The white star marks the position of Sgr A*. Each row shows emission from a single continuum-subtracted line (see color bar labels), and each panel shows a different vrad bin. Relevant Minispiral structures are labeled in gray in the top row, and additional objects are labeled in Figure 1. The rightmost column shows emission associated with the Bar, the middle two columns with the Northern Arm (and some of the BC structures), and the leftmost column the BC structures.
