Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the DA42-L360
190-01062-01 Rev. A
Warnings, Cautions & Notes
WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon
the use of the terrain function. The G1000 Terrain Proximity feature is NOT
intended to be used as a primary reference for terrain avoidance and does not
relieve the pilot from the responsibility of being aware of surroundings during
flight. The Terrain Proximity feature is only to be used as an aid for terrain
avoidance and is not certified for use in applications requiring a certified
terrain awareness system. Terrain data is obtained from third party sources.
Garmin is not able to independently verify the accuracy of the terrain data.
WARNING: The displayed minimum safe altitudes (MSAs) are only advisory
in nature and should not be relied upon as the sole source of obstacle and
terrain avoidance information. Always refer to current aeronautical charts
for appropriate minimum clearance altitudes.
WARNING: The altitude calculated by G1000 GPS receivers is geometric
height above Mean Sea Level and could vary significantly from the altitude
displayed by pressure altimeters, such as the GDC 74A Air Data Computer,
or other altimeters in the aircraft. GPS altitude should never be used for
vertical navigation. Always use pressure altitude displayed by the G1000
PFD or other pressure altimeters in aircraft.
WARNING: Do not use outdated database information. Databases used in
the G1000 system must be updated regularly in order to ensure that the
information remains current. Pilots using any outdated database do so
entirely at their own risk.
WARNING: Do not use basemap (land and water data) information for
primary navigation. Basemap data is intended only to supplement other
approved navigation data sources and should be considered as an aid to
enhance situational awareness.
WARNING: Traffic information shown on the G1000 Multi Function Display
is provided as an aid in visually acquiring traffic. Pilots must maneuver
the aircraft based only upon ATC guidance or positive visual acquisition of
conflicting traffic.
WARNING: XM Weather should not be used for hazardous weather
penetration. Weather information provided by the GDL 69A is approved only
for weather avoidance, not penetration.
