Warnings, Cautions & Notes 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: To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of the aera 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 aera 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 Garmin aera 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 aera. 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, aera operational procedures must be learned on the ground. WARNING: The government entities operating the satellite-based navigation systems (GPS/GLONASS) are solely responsible for their accuracy and maintenance. The satellite-based navigation systems are subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS/GLONASS equipment. Portions of the system utilize GPS/GLONASS as a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the system can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe. 190-02017-20 Rev. A Garmin aera 660 Pilot's Guide
