WARNING: The G3X Fuel Calculator and/or Fuel Range Rings are NOT
intended to be relied upon as the primary fuel indicator(s), and does not
relieve the pilot from the responsibility of proper flight planning. G3X fuel
calculations do not use the aircraft fuel quantity indicators and are calculated
from the last time the fuel was reset.
NOTE: An optional Fuel Flow Sensor must be configured for the FUEL Softkey
to appear on the ENG Page. Refer to the Installation Manual for more infor-
mation.
