Page 4 Although unlikely, it may be possible for erroneous operation to occur without a fault indication shown by the G1000. It is thus the responsibility of the pilot to detect such an occurrence by means of cross-checking with all redundant or correlated information available in the cockpit.
Page 5 The GPS system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment. Portions of the Garmin G1000 utilize GPS as a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the G1000 can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.

Page 13 GDC 74 – The Air Data Computer (ADC) processes data from the pitot/static system and outside air temperature (OAT) sensor. The ADC provides pressure altitude, airspeed, vertical speed, and OAT information to the G1000 System, and it communicates with the primary IAU, displays, and AHRS using an ARINC 429 digital interface.
Page 14 • GSA 81 and GSM 85 – The GSA 81 servos are used for automatic control of pitch, pitch trim, and roll. These units interface with each IAU. The GSM 85 servo mounts are responsible for transferring the output torque of the servo actuators to the mechanical ﬂight-control surface linkages.

NOTE: The PFD and MFD data card slots use Secure Digital (SD) cards and are located on the upper right side of the display bezels.
Page 18: System Power-Up
Refer to Appendix A for system-speciﬁc annunciations and alerts. NOTE: The G1000 System is integrated with the aircraft electrical system and receives power directly from electrical busses. The PFD, MFD, and supporting sub-systems include both power-on and continuous built-in test features that exercise the processor, RAM, ROM, external inputs, and outputs to provide safe operation.

Page 20: G1000 System Annunciations
Upon G1000 power-up, certain instruments remain invalid as equipment begins to initialize. All instruments should be operational within one minute of power-up. If any instrument remains ﬂagged, the G1000 should be serviced by a Garmin-authorized repair facility.
Page 21: Ahrs Operation
The Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) performs attitude, heading, and vertical acceleration calculations for the G1000 System, utilizing GPS, magnetometer, and air data in addition to information from its internal sensors. Attitude and heading information are updated on the PFD while the AHRS receives appropriate combinations of information from the external sensor inputs.

Page 260: Terrain Proximity
Terrain data is not displayed when the aircraft latitude is greater than 75 ° North or 60 ° South. NOTE: G1000 Terrain Proximity is a non-TSO-C151b-certiﬁed terrain awareness system. It increases situational awareness and aids in reducing controlled ﬂight into terrain (CFIT).
Page 261: Gps Position And Gps-Msl Altitude
HAZARD AVOIDANCE GPS POSITION AND GPS-MSL ALTITUDE The G1000 GPS receiver provides the horizontal position and altitude. GPS altitude is derived from satellite position. GPS altitude is then converted to a mean sea level (MSL)-based altitude (GPS-MSL altitude) and is used to determine terrain and obstacle proximity.
Page 262: Displaying Terrain Proximity Data
To display terrain and obstacle data on any page other than the Terrain Proximity Page, press the MAP Softkey, then press the TERRAIN Softkey. Obstacles with heights greater than 200 feet above ground level (AGL) are displayed in three color levels (Table 6-5). The G1000 adjusts colors automatically as the aircraft altitude changes.
