Warnings, Cautions & Notes
WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon
™
the use of the terrain function. The G3X Touch 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 surround-
ings 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: To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and
understand all aspects of the G3X Touch Pilot's Guide documentation and
the Pilot's Operating Handbook of the aircraft. Thoroughly practice basic
operation prior to actual use. During flight operations, carefully compare
indications from the G3X Touch to all available navigation sources, including
the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety
purposes, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation.
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 G3X Touch internal 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 G3X Touch PFD when determining or selecting aircraft alti-
tude.
WARNING: Do not use outdated database information. Databases used in the
G3X Touch system must be updated regularly in order to ensure the informa-
tion remains current. Pilots using any outdated database do so entirely at
their own risk.
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 condi-
tions.
