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 ANTIREFLECTIVE 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 antireflective coatings. CAUTION: The system does not contain any user-serviceable parts.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes NOTE: This product, its packaging, and its components contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. This notice is being provided in accordance with California’s Proposition 65. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please refer to our web site at www.garmin.com/prop65.
Warnings, Cautions & Notes NOTE: The FAA has asked Garmin to remind pilots who fly with Garmin database-dependent avionics of the following: • It is the pilot’s responsibility to remain familiar with all FAA regulatory and advisory guidance and information related to the use of databases in the National Airspace System. • Garmin equipment will only recognize and use databases that are obtained from Garmin or Jeppesen.

NOTE: Temperature Compensated (TEMP COMP) altitudes are depicted as slanted text. GPS Nav 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.
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.

The pilot can interrupt ESP by pressing and holding either the Control Wheel Steering (CWS) or Autopilot Disconnect (AP/YD DISC TRIM INTRPT) switch. Upon releasing the CWS or AP/YD DISC TRIM INTRPT switch, ESP force will again be applied, provided aircraft attitude and/or airspeed are within their respective engagement limits. ESP can also be overridden by overpowering the servo’s mechanical torque limit. ESP is automatically enabled on system power up.
Additional Features EIS Nav/Com/ XPDR/Audio AFCS ESP engages at 18° nose-up and 17° nose-down. Once ESP is engaged, it will apply opposing force between 15° and 50° nose-up and between 12° and 50° nose-down. Maximum opposing force is applied between 25° and 50° nose-up and between 22° and 50° nose-down. The opposing force increases or decreases depending on the pitch angle and the direction of pitch travel.

Abnormal Operation Flight Instruments ABNORMAL OPERATION REVERSIONARY MODE Nav/Com/ XPDR/Audio AFCS • PFD failure – MFD does not automatically enter reversionary mode, reversionary mode must be activated manually. EIS In reversionary mode, critical flight instrumentation is combined with engine instrumentation on the remaining displays. When a system detected failure occurs, the display reversionary modes are as follows: • MFD failure – PFD automatically enters reversionary mode.
UNUSUAL ATTITUDES The PFD ‘declutters’ when the aircraft enters an unusual attitude. Only the primary functions are displayed in these situations.
Abnormal Operation Nav/Com/ XPDR/Audio AFCS GPS Nav Flight Planning Procedures Hazard Avoidance Additional Features Abnormal Operation DR Mode is indicated on the G1000 by the appearance of the letters ‘DR’ superimposed in yellow over the ‘own aircraft’ symbol as shown in the following figure. In addition, ‘DR’ is prominently displayed, also in yellow, on the HSI slightly above and to the right of the aircraft symbol on the CDI as shown in the following figure.
As a result of operating in DR Mode, all GPS-derived data is computed based upon an estimated position and is displayed as yellow text on the display to denote degraded navigation source information.
