Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon the use of the terrain function. The G1000 Terrain Proximity feature is NOT intended to be used as a primary reference for terrain avoidance and does not relieve the pilot from the responsibility of being aware of surroundings during flight.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes Warning: NEXRAD weather data is to be used for long-range planning purposes only. Due to inherent delays in data transmission and the relative age of the data, NEXRAD weather data should not be used for short-range weather avoidance. WARNING: Use of the Stormscope is not intended for hazardous weather penetration (thunderstorm penetration). Stormscope information, as displayed on the G1000 MFD, is to be used only for weather avoidance, not penetration.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: The illustrations in this guide are only examples. Never use the G1000 to attempt to penetrate a thunderstorm. Both the FAA Advisory Circular, Subject: Thunderstorms, and the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) recommend avoiding “by at least 20 miles any thunderstorm identified as severe or giving an intense radar echo.” WARNING: Lamp(s) inside this product may contain mercury (HG) and must be recycled or disposed of according to local, state, or federal laws.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes nOTE: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the G1000 panel and displays, are subject to change and may not reflect the most current G1000 system and aviation databases. Depictions of equipment may differ slightly from the actual equipment. NOTE: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Flight Plan Import/Export Messages In some circumstances, some messages may appear in conjunction with others. Flight Plan Import/Export Results ‘Flight plan successfully imported.’ ‘File contained user waypoints only. User waypoints imported successfully. No stored flight plan data was modified.’ ‘No flight plan files found to import.’ ‘Flight plan import failed.’ ‘Flight plan partially imported.’ ‘File contained user waypoints only.’ ‘Too many points. Flight plan truncated.
Annunciations & Alerts GPS Nav Flight Planning Procedures ‘Flight plan export failed.’ AFCS ‘Flight plan successfully exported.’ Nav/Com/ XPDR/Audio ‘One or more user waypoints renamed.’ Hazard Avoidance Description The flight plan file on the SD card contains user waypoints. The quantity of stored user waypoints has exceeded system capacity, therefore not all the user waypoints on the SD card have been imported. Any flight plan user waypoints that were not imported are locked in the flight plan.
