Page 4 Always refer to current aeronautical charts for appropriate minimum clearance altitudes. The Garmin G1000 has a very high degree of functional integrity. However, the pilot must WARNING: recognize that providing monitoring and/or self-test capability for all conceivable system failures is not practical.
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.
