DATABASE UPDATES
CAUTION: Never disconnect power to the system when loading a database.
Power interruption during the database loading process could result in
maintenance being required to reboot the system.
The system uses Secure Digital (SD) cards to load and store various types of data.
For basic flight operations, SD cards are required for database storage as well as
Jeppesen navigation and Jeppesen ChartView database updates. Not all SD cards are
compatible with the G1000 system. Use only SD cards supplied by Garmin or the
aircraft manufacturer.
NOTE: DO NOT use the database SD cards for any purpose other than database
storage.
Information regarding the various databases may be viewed on the AUX-System
Status Page.
