NOTE
The MAP - TAWS page and terrain display is intended to serve as a situational awareness tool
only. It may not provide either the accuracy or fidelity, or both, on which to solely base
decisions and plan maneuvers to avoid terrain or obstacles.
To avoid unwanted alerts, TAWS should be inhibited when landing at an airport that is not included in the
airport database.
TRAFFIC AVOIDANCE SYSTEM LIMITS
Use of the MAP - TRAFFIC MAP to maneuver the airplane to avoid traffic without outside visual reference
is prohibited. The Traffic Information System (TIS) or optional Skywatch HP Traffic Alert/Advisory System
is intended as an aid for the pilot to visually locate traffic. It is the responsibility of the pilot to see and
manually maneuver the airplane to avoid other traffic.
DATA LINK WEATHER (XM WEATHER)
Datalink weather information displayed by the G1000 system is limited to supplemental use only. XM
weather data is not a source of official weather information. Use of the NEXRAD and LTNG (XM
Lightning) data on the MAP – NAVIGATION MAP and/or MAP - WEATHER DATA LINK page (XM
Weather) for hazardous weather, e.g., thunderstorm penetration is prohibited. NEXRAD, and LTNG
information on the MAP - NAVIGATION or MAP – WEATHER DATA LINK page is intended only as an aid
to enhance situational awareness of hazardous weather, not penetration. It is the pilot’s responsibility to
avoid hazardous weather using official weather data sources and the airplane’s in-flight weather radar.
Display of XM NEXRAD data is prohibited if XM ICING or XM TURBULENCE are displayed on the MFD
MAP- WEATHER DATA LINK page. XM ICING and XM TURBULENCE data must be turned off in order
to display XM NEXRAD data

The use of the Stormscope lightning data on the MAP – NAVIGATION MAP and/or MAP –
STORMSCOPE page for hazardous weather (thunderstorm) penetration is prohibited. Stormscope
lightning data on the MAP - NAVIGATION or MAP – STORMSCOPE page is intended only as an aid to
enhance situational awareness of hazardous weather, not penetration. It is the pilot’s responsibility to
avoid hazardous weather using official weather data sources and the airplane’s weather radar.
