Garmin G3X Pilot’s Guide

190-01115-00 Rev. J

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon

the use of the terrain function. The G3X 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 ter-

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

understand all aspects of the G3X Pilot’s Guide documentation and the Pilot’s

Operating Handbook of the aircraft. Thoroughly practice basic operation

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

from the G3X 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.

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 G3X internal GPS receivers is geometric

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

displayed by pressure altimeters. Always use pressure altitude displayed by

the G3X PFD when determining or selecting aircraft altitude.

WARNING: Do not use outdated database information.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

G3X 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 Pilots using any outdated database do so entirely at their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 data link weather information for maneuvering in,

near, or around areas of hazardous weather. Information contained with in

data link weather products may not accurately depict current weather condi-

tions.

Garmin G3X Pilot’s Guide

190-01115-00 Rev. J

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

WARNING: Do not use the indicated data link weather product age to

determine the age of the weather information shown by the data link weather

product. Due to time delays inherent in gathering and processing weather

data for data link transmission, the weather information shown by the data

link weather product may be signiﬁcantly older than the indicated weather

product age.

WARNING: 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.

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

G3X to attempt to penetrate a thunderstorm. Both the FAA Advisory Circu-

lar, 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: Because of variation in the earth’s magnetic ﬁeld, operating the

G3X within the following areas could result in loss of reliable attitude and

heading indications. North of 72° North latitude at all longitudes; South of

70° South latitude at all longitudes; North of 65° North latitude between

longitude 75° W and 120° W. (Northern Canada); North of 70° North latitude

between longitude 70°W and 128°W. (Northern Canada); North of 70° North

latitude between longitude 85° E and 114° E. (Northern Russia); South of

55° South latitude between longitude 120° E and 165° E. (Region south of

Australia and New Zealand)

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 G3X utilize GPS as a precision

electronic NAVigationAID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, informa-

tion presented by the G3X can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore,

become unsafe.

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

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 situ-

ational awareness.

WARNING: Do not use the approach information provided by the VFR

navigation database residing within the G3X as a means of navigating any

instrument approach. The G3X VFR navigation database is limited to pres-

ent only the waypoints for the ﬁnal approach leg of a published procedure.

These waypoints and associated course line are made available for monitoring

purposes only.

WARNING: Do not rely solely upon the display of trafﬁc information for

collision avoidance maneuvering. The trafﬁc display does not provide colli-

sion avoidance resolution advisories and does not under any circumstances

or conditions relieve the pilot’s responsibility to see and avoid other aircraft.

WARNING: Do not rely solely upon the display of trafﬁc information to

accurately depict all of the trafﬁc within range of the aircraft. Due to lack

of equipment, poor signal reception, and/or inaccurate information from

aircraft or ground stations, trafﬁc may be present that is not represented on

the display.

WARNING: For safety reasons, G3X operational procedures must be learned

on the ground.

CAUTION: The display uses 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 G3X does not contain any user-serviceable parts.

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

thorized repairs or modiﬁcations could void both the warranty and the pilot’s

authority to operate this device under FAA/FCC regulations.

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

NOTE: The Garmin G3X has a very high degree of functional integrity. How-

ever, 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 G3X. 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.

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

images of the G3X panel and displays, are subject to change and may not

reﬂect the most current G3X system and aviation databases. Depictions of

equipment may differ slightly from the actual equipment.

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.

NOTE: Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) data is provided by the FAA and

may not be updated outside of normal business hours. Conﬁrm data currency

through alternate sources and contact your local FSS for interpretation of TFR

data.

NOTE: The Garmin G3X system includes products like the GDU 37X and

the GSU 73 that are not TSO-certiﬁed products and have not received FAA

approval or endorsement. Consequently the G3X system is not suitable for

installation in type-certiﬁcated aircraft.
