SAFETAXI
The SafeTaxi database contains detailed airport diagrams for selected airports.
These diagrams aid in following ground control instructions by accurately displaying
the aircraft position on the map in relation to taxiways, ramps, runways, terminals, and
services. This database is updated on a 56-day cycle.
OBSTACLE
The obstacle database contains data for obstacles, such as towers, that pose a
potential hazard to aircraft. Obstacles 200 feet and higher are included in the obstacle
database. It is very important to note that not all obstacles are necessarily charted and
therefore may not be contained in the obstacle database. This database is updated on
a 56-day cycle.
TERRAIN
The terrain database is updated periodically and has no expiration date.

UPDATING GDU 37X DATABASES

The GDU 37X database updates can be obtained by visiting the 'flyGarmin' website
(www.fly.garmin.com). The 'flyGarmin' website requires the unit's System ID to update

when copied to the SD Card.
Obtaining the System ID:
1) Press the MENU Key twice to access the Main Menu.
2) Select 'System Setup' and press the ENT Key.
Or:
