After becoming familiar with the basics, some suggested 

reading within this Pilot’s Guide includes:

•  Flight plan features - Section 4
•  IFR procedures - Section 5
•  Waypoint information pages (database 

information) - Section 6

•  Unit settings (configuring the unit to the pilot’s 

preferences) - Section 8

If  more  information  is  needed,  Garmin’s  Customer 

Service  staff  is  available  during  normal  business  hours 

(U.S. Central time zone) at the phone and fax numbers 

listed  on  page  ii.    Garmin  can  also  be  reached  by  mail

Powering on the GPS 500

The GPS 500’s 

Power

 Knob is located at the top left 

corner of the unit.  Turning the 

Power

 Knob clockwise 

turns unit 

power on.  After turning the unit on, a welcome 

page appears  briefly while the unit performs a self test, 

followed  sequentially  by  the  Unit  Type  Page  (Figure 

 

1-4)  and  the  Software  Version  Page.    Then  (depending 
on configuration) the Weather Page, the Traffic Page, the 
Aviation  Database  Page,  and  the  Land/Terrain/Obstacles 
Database Page are sequentially displayed.

Figure 1-4  Unit Type Page 

The 

Database  Versions  Page  (Figure  1-5)  appears 

next, which shows the current database information on 

the 

NavData  Card  and  Terrain  Data  Cards.    Database 

information highlighted in yellow indicates the database 

is not within its effective dates.  The NavData database is 
updated every 28 days and must be current for approved 

instrument approach operations. Information on database 
subscriptions is available inside the GPS 500 package.
