Foreword System Sec 1 PFD Sec 2 MFD Sec 3 Features Avoidance Hazard Sec 4 Additional Sec 5 WARNING: Do not use Terrain-SVT information for primary terrain avoidance. Terrain-SVT is intended only to enhance situational awareness. CAUTION: 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 G500 utilize GPS as a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the G500 can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe. CAUTION: The Garmin G500 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. CAUTION: The G500 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. 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 feet away from the source of the interference should alleviate the condition. NOTE: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the G500 bezel and displays, are subject to change and may not reflect the most current GDU 620 system. 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. NOTE: Terrain data is not displayed when the aircraft latitude is greater than 75° North or 60° South. & Alerts Annun.
