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 XM LTNG data on
the MAP – NAVIGATION MAP and/or MAP - WEATHER DATA LINK page 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- XM WEATHER DATA LINK page. XM ICING and XM TURBULENCE data must be turned off in
order to display XM NEXRAD data. For airplanes that have system software 0636.03 or later installed, it
is not possible to simultaneously display XM ICING, TURBULENCE and NEXRAD data.
OPTIONAL L3 COMMUNICATIONS AVIONICS SYSTEM WX-500 STORMSCOPE
Stormscope lightning information displayed by the G1000 system is limited to supplemental use only.
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.
