190-01054-00 Rev. E

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

WARNING: The indicators represented on the Panel are based on GPS-derived

data and may differ from the instruments in the aircraft.

WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon

the use of the terrain function. The GDU

™

37XTerrain 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 GDU 37X receivers is geometric height

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

by pressure altimeters. Always use pressure altitude when determining or

selecting aircraft altitude.

WARNING: Do not use outdated database information.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

GDU 37X 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 Pilots using any outdated database do so entirely at their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:

Do not rely solely upon the display of trafﬁc information for collision

avoidance maneuvering. The trafﬁc display does not provide collision avoidance

resolution advisories and does not under any circumstances or conditions relieve the

pilot’s responsibility to see and avoid other aircraft.

190-01054-00 Rev. E

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

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: 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.

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 illustrations in this guide are only examples. Never use the

GDU 37X 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: The Garmin GDU 37X 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 GDU 37X. 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, GDU 37X operational procedures must be

learned on the ground.

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

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 GDU 37X utilize GPS as a

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

information presented by the GDU 37X 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 GDU 37X 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 GDU 37X 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 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.

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 GDU 37X 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 GDU 37X, are subject to change and may not reﬂect the most

current GDU 37X system and aviation databases. Depictions of equipment

may differ slightly from the actual equipment.

Warnings, Cautions & Notes

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: 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 purpose of the accompanying Quick Reference Guide is to provide

a resource with which to ﬁnd operating instructions on the major features of

the GDU 37X more easily. It is not intended to be a comprehensive operating

guide. Complete operating procedures for the GDU 37X are found in this

Pilot’s Guide.
