Under no circumstances including negligence, shall AOPA be liable for any incidental, special or consequential damages that result from the use or inability to use the software or related documentation, even if AOPA or an AOPA authorized representative has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon the use of the terrain avoidance feature. The terrain avoidance 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 avoidance feature is only to be used as an aid for terrain avoidance. Terrain data is obtained from third party sources.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: Do not use datalink weather products (e.g., XM WX Satellite Weather, GFDS World Wide Weather, or FIS-B) for hazardous weather penetration. Weather information provided by these products is aged by up to several minutes and may not depict actual weather conditions as they currently appear. WARNING: Use of the Stormscope is not intended for hazardous weather penetration (thunderstorm penetration).
Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: The illustrations in this guide are only examples. Never use the G1000H to attempt to penetrate a thunderstorm. Both the FAA Advisory Circular, Subject: Thunderstorms, and the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) recommend avoiding “by at least 20 miles any thunderstorm identified as severe or giving an intense radar echo.” WARNING: Lamp(s) inside this product may contain mercury (HG) and must be recycled or disposed of according to local, state, or federal laws.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes NOTE: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the G1000H panel and displays, are subject to change and may not reflect the most current G1000H system and aviation databases. Depictions of equipment may differ slightly from the actual equipment. NOTE: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.

In this case the altitude may be entered manually.
Altitudes associated with approach procedures are “auto-designated”. This means the system automatically uses the altitudes loaded with the approach for giving vertical flight path guidance outside the FAF. Note these altitudes are displayed as small light blue text. Altitudes associated with arrival procedures are “manually-designated”. This means the system does not use the altitudes loaded with the arrival for giving vertical flight path guidance until designated to do so by the pilot.
