Warnings, Cautions & Notes
WARNING
: Do not use the Garmin SVT runway depiction as the sole means
for determining the proximity of the aircraft to the runway or for maintaining
the proper approach path angle during landing.
WARNING:
Do not rely on information from a lightning detection system
display as the sole basis for hazardous weather avoidance. Range limitations
and interference may cause the system to display inaccurate or incomplete
information. Refer to documentation from the lightning detection system
manufacturer for detailed information about the system.
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 use TAWS information for primary terrain or obstacle
avoidance. TAWS is intended only to enhance situational awareness.
WARNING:
Do not use QFE altimeter setting outside of the terminal envi-
ronment for the corresponding issuing airport to ensure adequate obstacle
clearance.
WARNING:
Do not fly QFE procedures above the Transition Altitude or
when navigating to a waypoint that contains a QNE (flight level) altitude
constraint.
WARNING:
Always fly a procedure that provides terrain and obstacle clear-
ance from the reference airfield when operating in IMC while conducting QFE
procedures.
WARNING:
Do not use SurfaceWatch
™
information as the primary method
of flight guidance during airborne or ground operations. SurfaceWatch does
not have NOTAM or ATIS information regarding the current active runway,
condition, or information about the position of hold lines.
CAUTION:
Do not clean display surfaces with abrasive cloths or cleaners
containing ammonia. They will harm the anti-reflective coating.
