10.12 JEPPESEN DATABASES

Use only blank SD cards to load Jeppesen Aviation Database into the GDUs. Do not
copy the Jeppesen Aviation database (not including ChartView) onto supplemental
data cards to load into the GDUs. Doing so may corrupt the supplemental database
cards making them unusable. Replacing corrupt cards is not covered under warranty.
Aviation
The Jeppesen aviation database is updated on a 28-day cycle and is provided directly from Jeppesen. The
Jeppesen aviation database may be installed from the Jeppesen supplied SD data card. After the Jeppesen
aviation database is installed, the card may be removed after loading the update to each GDU.
Updating the Jeppesen aviation database:
1. With the G1000 System OFF, insert the SD card containing the aviation database update into the top
card slot of the PFD to be updated (label of SD card facing left).
2. Turn the G1000 System ON. A prompt is displayed in the upper left corner.
3. Press the ENT key to start the database update.
4. After the update completes, the PFD starts in normal mode.
5. Turn the G1000 System OFF and remove the SD card.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the MFD. The MFD and PFD databases are now updated. Remove the
SD card when finished.
7. Verify that the correct update cycle is loaded during startup of the MFD.
ChartView
The ChartView database is updated on a 14-day cycle and is provided directly from Jeppesen. If the
ChartView database is not updated within 70 days of the expiration date, ChartView will no longer
function. The ChartView database should be copied to the Garmin supplied Supplemental Data Card
which will reside in the bottom card slot of the MFD.
