warnings, cautions & Notes
WARNING: When installing the aera 795/796, place the unit so it does not
™
obstruct the field of view or interfere with operating controls.
WARNING: The indicators represented on the Panel are based on GPS-derived
data and may differ from the instruments in the aircraft.
WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon
the use of the terrain function. The aera 795/796 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. The Terrain Proximity feature is only to be used
as an aid for terrain avoidance and is not certified for use in applications
requiring a certified terrain awareness system. Terrain data is obtained from
third party sources. Garmin is not able to independently verify the accuracy
of the terrain data.
WARNING: The displayed minimum safe altitudes (MSAs) are only advisory
in nature and should not be relied upon as the sole source of obstacle and
terrain avoidance information. Always refer to current aeronautical charts
for appropriate minimum clearance altitudes.
WARNING: The altitude calculated by aera 795/796 GPS receivers is geometric
height above Mean Sea Level and could vary significantly from the altitude
displayed by pressure altimeters. Always use pressure altitude displayed by
the aircraft altimeter when determining or selecting aircraft altitude.
WARNING: Do not use outdated database information. Databases used in
the aera 795/796 system must be updated regularly in order to ensure that
the information remains current. Pilots using any outdated database do so
entirely at their own risk.
WARNING: SiriusXM Weather should not be used for hazardous weather
penetration. Weather information is approved only for weather avoidance,
not penetration.
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.
