Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the DA42

190-00406-06 Rev. A

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon

the use of the terrain function. The G1000 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 surroundings 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: 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 G1000 GPS receivers is geometric

height above Mean Sea Level and could vary signiﬁcantly from the altitude

displayed by pressure altimeters, such as the GDC 74A Air Data Computer,

or other altimeters in aircraft. GPS altitude should never be used for vertical

navigation. Always use pressure altitude displayed by the G1000 PFD or

other pressure altimeters in aircraft.

WARNING: Do not use outdated database information. Databases used in

the G1000 system must be updated regularly in order to ensure that the

information remains current. Pilots using any outdated database do so

entirely at their own risk.

WARNING: Do not use basemap (land and water data) information for

primary navigation. Basemap data is intended only to supplement other

approved navigation data sources and should be considered as an aid to

enhance situational awareness.

WARNING: Trafﬁc information shown on the G1000 Multi Function Display

is provided as an aid in visually acquiring trafﬁc. Pilots must maneuver

the aircraft based only upon ATC guidance or positive visual acquisition of

conﬂicting trafﬁc.

WARNING: XM Weather should not be used for hazardous weather

penetration. Weather information provided by the GDL 69A is approved only

for weather avoidance, not penetration.

Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the DA42

190-00406-06 Rev. A

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

WARNING: NEXRAD weather data is to be used for long-range planning

purposes only. Due to inherent delays in data transmission and the relative

age of the data, NEXRAD weather data should not be used for short-range

weather avoidance.

WARNING: Use of the Stormscope is not intended for hazardous weather

penetration (thunderstorm penetration). Stormscope information, as

displayed on the G1000 MFD, is to be used only for weather avoidance, not

penetration.

WARNING: The Garmin G1000, as installed in the Diamond DA42 aircraft, has

a very high degree of functional integrity. However, the pilot must recognize

that providing monitoring and/or self-test capability for all conceivable system

failures is not practical. Although unlikely, it may be possible for erroneous

operation to occur without a fault indication shown by the G1000. It is

thus the responsibility of the pilot to detect such an occurrence by means of

cross-checking with all redundant or correlated information available in the

cockpit.

WARNING: For safety reasons, G1000 operational procedures must be learned

on the ground.

WARNING: The United States government operates the Global Positioning

System and is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. 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.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and

understand all aspects of the G1000 Pilot’s Guide documentation and the

Diamond DA42 Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH). Thoroughly practice basic

operation prior to actual use. During ﬂight operations, carefully compare

indications from the G1000 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.

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

WARNING: The illustrations in this guide are only examples. Never use

the G1000 to attempt to penetrate a thunderstorm. Both the FAA Advisory

Circular, Subject: Thunderstorms, and the Aeronautical Information Manual

(AIM) recommend avoiding “by at least 20 miles any thunderstorm identiﬁed

as severe or giving an intense radar echo.”

WARNING: Lamp(s) inside this product may contain mercury (HG) and must

be recycled or disposed of according to local, state, or federal laws. For

more information, refer to our website at www.garmin.com/aboutGarmin/

environment/disposal.jsp.

WARNING: Because of anomalies in the earth’s magnetic ﬁeld, operating

the G1000 within the following areas could result in loss of reliable attitude

and heading indications. North of 70° North latitude and south of 70° South

latitude. An area north of 65° North latitude between longitude 75º West

and 120º West. An area south of 55° South latitude between longitude 120º

East and 165º East.

CAUTION: The PFD and MFD displays use a lens coated with a special

anti-reﬂective coating that is very sensitive to skin oils, waxes, and abrasive

cleaners. CLEANERS CONTAINING AMMONIA WILL HARM THE ANTI-

REFLECTIVE COATING. It is very important to clean the lens using a clean,

lint-free cloth and an eyeglass lens cleaner that is speciﬁed as safe for anti-

reﬂective coatings.

CAUTION: The Garmin G1000 does not contain any user-serviceable parts.

Repairs should only be made by an authorized Garmin service center.

Unauthorized repairs or modiﬁcations could void both the warranty and the

pilot’s authority to operate this device under FAA/FCC regulations.

NOTE: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen

images of the G1000 panel and displays, are subject to change and may not

reﬂect the most current G1000 system and aviation databases. Depictions

of equipment may differ slightly from the actual equipment.

NOTE: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is

subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful

interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,

including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

NOTE: The data contained in the terrain and obstacle databases comes from

government agencies. Garmin accurately processes and cross-validates the

data, but cannot guarantee the accuracy and completeness of the data.

NOTE: This product, its packaging, and its components contain chemicals

known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive

harm. This notice is being provided in accordance with California’s Proposition

65. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please

refer to our web site at www.garmin.com/prop65.

NOTE: Interference from GPS repeaters operating inside nearby hangars can

cause an intermittent loss of attitude and heading displays while the aircraft

is on the ground. Moving the aircraft more than 100 yards away from the

source of the interference should alleviate the condition.

NOTE: Use of polarized eyewear may cause the ﬂight displays to appear dim

or blank.
