Model 560XL

TAWS, GPWS, and Terrain System Limits

Pilots are authorized to deviate from their current ATC clearance to the extent necessary to comply with
TAWS warnings.
The TAWS system has an area of coverage as detailed below:
a) The terrain coverage area is from North 89° Latitude to South 89° Latitude in all longitudes.
b) The Obstacle Database coverage area includes the United States, Europe, and Canada.
Use of the TAWS for navigation or as the primary means for terrain and/or obstacle avoidance is
prohibited.
The TAWS page and terrain display is intended to serve as a situational awareness tool only. It
may not provide the accuracy, fidelity, or both, on which to solely base decisions and plan
maneuvers to avoid terrain or obstacles.
To avoid unwanted alerts, TAWS should be inhibited when landing at an airport that is not included in the
airport database.

TCAS Limits (Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System)

Use of the TRAFFIC MAP and traffic overlays as the primary means to maneuver the airplane for traffic
avoidance is prohibited.
Pilots are authorized to deviate from their current ATC clearance to the extent necessary to comply with
TCAS II warnings.

Data Link Weather (XM AND CONNEXT Weather) Limits

Datalink weather information displayed by the G5000 system is limited to supplemental use only. XM or
Garmin Connext (Iridium Satellite Data Link) weather data is not a source of official weather information.
Use of the NEXRAD Data, SiriusXM Lightning, Connext Radar, and Connext Lightning data overlay on
the Navigation Map and/or Weather pages for hazardous weather, e.g., thunderstorm penetration is
prohibited. NEXRAD Data, SiriusXM Lightning, Connext Radar, and Connext Lightning information on the
Navigation Map or Weather pages is intended only as an aid to enhance situational awareness of
hazardous weather, not penetration. It is the pilot's responsibility to avoid hazardous weather using official
weather data sources and the airplane's in-flight weather radar.
