INTRODUCTION
ELECTRONIC CHECKLISTS (OPTIONAL)
The G1000 Multi Function Display installed in the
A36/G36 provides optional checklists which allow a pilot
to quickly find the proper procedure on the ground and
during each phase of flight.
NOTE: The checklist information described in this
section is not intended to replace the checklist
information described in the Beechcraft A36/G36
Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) and the Pilot
Safety and Warning Supplements document.
NOTE: Garmin is not responsible for the content
of the checklists. User-defined checklists are cre-
ated by the aircraft manufacturer. Additionally,
modifications or updates to the checklists are
coordinated through the aircraft manufacturer.
The user cannot edit the checklists.
