1.7 XM RADIO - AUTOMATIC MUTING
XM Radio audio is automatically muted when the
aircraft groundspeed exceeds approximately 30 kts and
the airspeed is less than approximately 80 kts. The audio
must be manually unmuted once the aircraft is outside
the applicable speed range. Refer to the G1000 Optional
Equipment section of the pilot’s guide.
1.8 DATABASE UPDATES
The G1000 System uses Secure Digital (SD) cards to
load and store various types of data. For basic flight op-
erations, SD cards are required for database storage as well
as Jeppesen aviation and ChartView database updates.
The following procedures pertain to updating the
G1000 system with SD cards as outlined in Appendix B of
the G1000 Cessna Nav III Pilot’s Guide.
Jeppesen Aviation Database
NOTE: After the aviation database is installed,
the card may be removed after loading the
update to each LRU.
Updating the Jeppesen aviation database:
1)
With the G1000 System OFF, insert the SD card
containing the aviation database update into the
top card slot of the PFD to be updated (Label of SD
card facing left).
2)
Turn the G1000 System ON. A prompt similar to
the following is displayed in the upper left corner
of the PFD:
