Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: Do not use the terrain avoidance feature as the sole means of navigation and terrain separation. The terrain avoidance feature is only to be used as and aid to terrain avoidance. Garmin obtains terrain database content from third party sources and is not able to independently verify the accuracy of the terrain data. WARNING: Do not rely on the displayed minimum safe altitude (MSAs) as the sole source of obstacle and terrain avoidance information.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: Do not use data link weather information for maneuvering in, near or around areas of hazardous weather. Information contained within data link weather products may not accurately depict current weather conditions. WARNING: Do not use the indicated data link weather product age to determine the age of the weather information shown by the data link weather product.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of the Pilot’s Guide documentation and the Airplane Flight Manual. Thoroughly practice basic operation prior to actual use. During flight operations, carefully compare indications from the system to all available navigation sources, including the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes CAUTION: The PFD and MFD displays use a lens coated with a special anti reflective coating that is very sensitive to skin oils, waxes, and abrasive cleaners. CLEANERS CONTAINING AMMONIA WILL HARM THE ANTI-REFLECTIVE COATING. It is very important to clean the lens using a clean, lint-free cloth and an eyeglass lens cleaner that is specified as safe for anti-reflective coatings. CAUTION: The system does not contain any user-serviceable parts.
Record of Revisions NOTE: Interference from GPS repeaters operating inside nearby hangars can cause an intermittent loss of attitude and heading displays while the aircraft is on the ground. Moving the aircraft more than 100 yards away from the source of the interference should alleviate the condition. NOTE: Use of polarized eyewear may cause the flight displays to appear dim or blank. NOTE: Garmin requests the flight crew report any observed discrepancies related to database information.

GPS Nav Flight Planning Procedures Large White Text Insertion Point Indicator AFCS The navigation database only contains altitudes for procedures that call for “Cross at” altitudes. If the procedure states “Expect to cross at,” the altitude is not in the database. In this case the altitude may be entered manually.
Altitudes associated with approach procedures are “auto-designated”. This means the system will automatically use 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 will not use the altitudes loaded with the arrival for giving vertical flight path guidance until designated to do so by the pilot.
GPS Navigation Light Blue Text Light Blue Subdued Text Large Text Altitude calculated by the system estimating the altitude of the aircraft as it passes over the navigation point. This altitude is provided as a reference and is not designated to be used in determining vertical flight path guidance. Altitude has been entered by the pilot. Altitude is designated for use in giving vertical flight path guidance.

Nav/Com/ XPDR/Audio EIS Flight Instruments Appendix Loading the Jeppesen Navigation Database as the Standby Navigation Database The purpose of the Standby Navigation Database is to allow the loading of the next cycle of the Jeppesen Navigation Database to the bottom SD card, prior to its effective date. (The Jeppesen Navigation Database is available from Jeppesen seven days prior to its effective date.) NOTE: After the navigation database is loaded or copied, the top SD card may be removed.
Appendix 11) The new database is copied to the SD card in the bottom card slot of each PFD. Progress can be monitored in the SYNC STATUS field. When copying is finished, ‘Complete’ is displayed. Flight Instruments 10) Turn the small FMS Knob to select the System Status Page. EIS NOTE: During the synchronization process, version differences between standby navigation databases will exist. This will result in the system displaying a ‘DB Mismatch’ alert for the standby navigation databases.
Magnetic Field Variation Database Update At startup, the system compares this version of the MV DB with that presently being used by each AHRS (GRS1 and GRS2). If the system determines the MV DB needs to be updated, a prompt is displayed on the Navigation Map Page, as shown in the following figure. Note, in the following example, GRS1 is the first AHRS to indicate an update is available. In actuality, this is dependent on which AHRS is the first to report status to the system.
