Warnings, Cautions & Notes WARNING: When installing the aera™, place the unit so it does not obstruct the field of view or interfere with operating controls. 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 aera 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 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 the GPS and GLONASS receivers is geometric height above Mean Sea Level and could vary significantly from the altitude displayed by pressure altimeters. WARNING: Do not use outdated database information. Databases used in the aera 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 Pilots using any outdated database do so entirely at their own risk.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 within data link weather products may not accurately depict current weather conditions. Garmin aera 660 Pilot's Guide 190-02017-20 Rev. A
