G1000H SYSTEM MESSAGE ADVISORIES
NOTE: This Section provides information regarding G1000H message advisories that may be displayed by
the system. Knowledge of the aircraft, systems, flight conditions, and other existing operational priorities
must be considered when responding to a message. Always use sound pilot judgment. The Bell 407
Rotorcraft Flight Manual (AFM) and Rotorcraft Flight Manual Supplement (AFMS) takes precedence over
any conflicting guidance found in this section.
This section describes various G1000H system message advisories. Certain messages are issued due to an LRU
or an LRU function failure. Such messages are normally accompanied by a corresponding red “X” annunciation
as shown previously in the G1000H System Annunciation section.
