WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
WARNING: Do not operate this equipment without first obtaining qualified instruction.
WARNING: Always refer to current aeronautical charts and NOTAMs for verification of displayed aeronautical
information. Displayed aeronautical data may not incorporate the latest NOTAM information.
WARNING: Do not use geometric altitude for compliance with air traffic control altitude requirements. The
primary barometric altimeter must be used for compliance with all air traffic control altitude regulations,
requirements, instructions, and clearances.
WARNING: Do not use basemap information (land and water data) as the sole means of navigation.
Basemap data is intended only to supplement other approved navigation data sources and should be
considered only an aid to enhance situational awareness.
WARNING: Do not rely solely upon the display of traffic information to accurately depict all of the traffic
within range of the aircraft. Due to lack of equipment, poor signal reception, and/or inaccurate information
from aircraft or ground stations, traffic may be present that is not represented on the display.
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.
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 older than the indicated weather product age.
WARNING: Do not use terrain avoidance displays as the sole source of information for maintaining
separation from terrain and obstacles. Garmin obtains terrain and obstacle data from third party sources
and cannot independently verify the accuracy of the information.
WARNING: Do not rely on the displayed minimum safe altitude (MSAs) as the sole source of obstacle
and terrain avoidance information. Always refer to current aeronautical charts for appropriate minimum
clearance altitudes.
WARNING: Do not use GPS to navigate to any active waypoint identified as a ‘NON WGS84 WPT’ by a
system message. ‘NON WGS84 WPT’ waypoints are derived from an unknown map reference datum that
may be incompatible with the map reference datum used by GPS (known as WGS84) and may be positioned
in error as displayed.

Garmin G3000 Pilot’s Guide for the Daher TBM 930
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
WARNING: Do not rely on the autopilot to level the aircraft at the MDA/DH when flying an approach with
vertical guidance. The autopilot will not level the aircraft at the MDA/DH even if the MDA/DH is set in the
altitude preselect.
WARNING: Do not rely on the accuracy of attitude and heading indications in the following geographic
areas (due to variations in the earth’s magnetic field): North of 72° North latitude at all longitudes; South
of 70° South latitude at all longitudes; North of 65° North latitude between longitude 75° W and 120° W.
(Northern Canada); North of 70° North latitude between longitude 70° W and 128° W. (Northern Canada);
North of 70° North latitude between longitude 85° E and 114° E. (Northern Russia); South of 55° South
latitude between longitude 120° E and 165° E. (Region south of Australia and New Zealand).
WARNING: Use appropriate primary systems for navigation, and for terrain, obstacle, and traffic avoidance.
Garmin SVT is intended as an aid to situational awareness only and may not provide either the accuracy or
reliability upon which to solely base decisions and/or plan maneuvers to avoid terrain, obstacles, or traffic.
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 operate the weather radar in a transmitting mode when personnel or objects are within
the MPEL boundary.
WARNING: Always position the weather radar gain setting to Calibrated for viewing the actual intensity of
precipitation. Changing the gain in weather mode causes precipitation intensity to be displayed as a color
not representative of the true intensity.
WARNING: Do not consider the overflight of thunderstorms to be safe, as extreme turbulence may exist
significantly above observed returns.
WARNING: Do not assume weather radar transmission is disabled unless all display panes displaying
weather radar are set to Standby Mode, and are displaying ‘STANDBY’ in the center of each weather radar
display. Transmission is also disabled by touching the Radar On Button or pressing the Radar On Softkey to
set the weather radar system to Off Mode, as indicated by a gray annunciator.
WARNING: Do not rely only on the Turbulence Detection function for hazardous weather avoidance, or to
maneuver in, near, or around areas of hazardous weather.
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.

190-02046-02 Rev. A
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
WARNING: Do not use TAWS information for primary terrain or obstacle avoidance. TAWS is intended only
to enhance situational awareness.
WARNING: Do not rely solely upon the display of traffic information for collision avoidance maneuvering.
The traffic display does not provide collision 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 a QFE altimeter setting with this system. System functions will not operate properly
with a QFE altimeter setting. Use only a QNH altimeter setting for height above mean sea level, or the
standard pressure setting, as applicable.
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.
CAUTION: Do not allow repairs to be made by anyone other than an authorized Garmin service center.
Unauthorized repairs or modifications could void both the warranty and affect the airworthiness of the
aircraft.
CAUTION: Never disconnect power to the system when loading a database. Power interruption during the
database loading process could result in maintenance being required to reboot the system.
CAUTION: Avoid areas on the radar display that appear “shadowed” (gray). The accuracy of the intensity
of returns in the shaded areas should be treated as suspect. Exercise extreme caution, making maneuvering
decisions with this information in mind.
CAUTION: When all display panes displaying weather radar are set to Standby Mode, the antenna is parked
at the center line. It is always a good idea to put the radar in Standby Mode before taxiing the aircraft to
prevent the antenna from bouncing on the bottom stop and possibly causing damage to the radar assembly.
NOTE All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the system panel
and displays, are subject to change and may not reflect the most current system and aviation databases.
Depictions of equipment may differ slightly from the actual equipment.
NOTE: Do not rely solely upon data link services to provide Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) information.
Always confirm TFR information through official sources such as Flight Service Stations or Air Traffic Control.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
NOTE: 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 system utilize GPS 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.
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: Use of polarized eyewear may cause the flight displays to appear dim or blank.
NOTE: This product, its packaging, and its components contain chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. This notice is being provided in accordance with
California’s Proposition 65. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please refer to
our web site at www.garmin.com/prop65.
NOTE: Operating the system in the vicinity of metal buildings, metal structures, or electromagnetic fields
can cause sensor differences that may result in nuisance miscompare annunciations during start up, shut
down, or while taxiing. If one or more of the sensed values are unavailable, the annunciation indicates no
comparison is possible.
NOTE: The system responds to a terminal procedure based on data coded within that procedure in the
Navigation Database. Differences in system operation may be observed among similar types of procedures
due to differences in the Navigation Database coding specific to each procedure.
NOTE: The FAA has asked Garmin to remind pilots who fly with Garmin database-dependent avionics of the
following:
It is the pilot’s responsibility to remain familiar with all FAA regulatory and advisory guidance and information
related to the use of databases in the National Airspace System.
Garmin equipment will only recognize and use databases that are obtained from Garmin or Jeppesen. Databases
obtained from Garmin or Jeppesen that have a Type 2 Letter of Authorization (LOA) from the FAA are assured
compliance with all data quality requirements (DQRs). A copy of the Type 2 LOA is available for each applicable
database and can be viewed at flygarmin.com by selecting ‘Aviation Database Declarations.’
Use of a current Garmin or Jeppesen database in your Garmin equipment is required for compliance with
established FAA regulatory guidance, but does not constitute authorization to fly any and all terminal procedures
that may be presented by the system. It is the pilot’s responsibility to operate in accordance with established
pertinent aircraft documents and regulatory guidance or limitations as applicable to the pilot, the aircraft, and
installed equipment.
Garmin G3000 Pilot’s Guide for the Daher TBM 930
190-02046-02 Rev. A
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
NOTE: The pilot/operator must review and be familiar with Garmin’s database exclusion list as discussed
in SAIB CE-14-04 to determine what data may be incomplete. The database exclusion list can be viewed at
flygarmin.com by selecting ‘Database Exclusions List.’
NOTE: The pilot/operator must have access to Garmin and Jeppesen database alerts and consider their
impact on the intended aircraft operation. The database alerts can be viewed at flygarmin.com by selecting
‘Aviation Database Alerts.’
NOTE: If the pilot/operator wants or needs to adjust the database, contact Garmin Product Support.
NOTE: Garmin requests the flight crew report any observed discrepancies related to database information.
These discrepancies could come in the form of an incorrect procedure; incorrectly identified terrain, obstacles
and fixes; or any other displayed item used for navigation or communication in the air or on the ground. Go
to flygarmin.com and select ‘Aviation Data Error Report’.
NOTE: Electronic aeronautical charts displayed on this system have been shown to meet the guidance in AC
120-76D as a Type B Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) for FliteCharts and ChartView. The accuracy of the charts
is subject to the chart data provider. Own-ship position on airport surface charts cannot be guaranteed to
meet the accuracy specified in AC 120-76D. Possible additional requirements may make a secondary source
of aeronautical charts, such as traditional paper charts or an additional electronic display, necessary on the
aircraft and available to the pilot. If the secondary source of aeronautical charts is a Portable Electronic
Device (PED), its use must be consistent with the guidance in AC 120-76D.
NOTE: The navigation databases used in Garmin navigation systems contain Special Procedures. Prior
to flying these procedures, pilots must have specific FAA authorization, training, and possession of the
corresponding current, and legitimately-sourced chart (approach plate, etc.). Inclusion of the Special
Procedure in the navigation database DOES NOT imply specific FAA authorization to fly the procedure.
NOTE: Terrain and obstacle alerting is not available north of 89º North latitude and south of 89º South
latitude. This is due to limitations present within the Terrain database and the system’s ability to process
the data representing the affected areas.
NOTE: The nose of the ‘own ship’ symbol represents the location of the aircraft. The center of any traffic
symbol represents the location of that traffic. The traffic and own ship symbols are an abstract representation
and do not reflect the physical extent of the aircraft/traffic, and should not replace other methods for
identifying traffic.
NOTE: When using Stormscope, there are several atmospheric phenomena in addition to nearby
thunderstorms that can cause isolated discharge points in the strike display mode. However, clusters of
two or more discharge points in the strike display mode do indicate thunderstorm activity if these points
reappear after the screen has been cleared.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
NOTE: Intruder aircraft at or below 500 ft. AGL may not appear on the Garmin SVT display or may appear
as a partial symbol.
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 yards
away from the source of the interference should alleviate the condition.
NOTE: Operate G3000 system power through at least one cycle in a period of four days of continuous
operation to avoid an autonomous system reboot.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
TOUCHSCREEN CONTROLLER
The two Touchscreen Controllers, designated from left to right as GTC1 and GTC2 are a pedestal-mounted
user interface allowing for ease of data entry, as well as operation of the PFD, Display Panes, and NAV/COM
system. Many procedures in this Pilot’s Guide are performed using the Touchscreen Controllers.

The Touchscreen Controller uses a grid of infrared beams and sensors to detect the location of touch input,
even when the operator is wearing gloves. Objects or debris on the glass surface can interfere with these
infrared beams and cause unintended activation of buttons. A screen cleaning procedure, described later in this
section, is available to temporarily disable the touch recognition capability to facilitate screen cleaning.
In normal operations, both Touchscreen Controllers can control the PFD, MFD and NAV/COM system. The
pilot selects a control mode for a given controller (i.e. PFD, MFD, NAV/COM) by pressing context-sensitive
softkeys located on the right portion of each controller bezel. These softkeys are aligned with labels for each
control mode currently available on a given controller. A box appears around the selected control mode, and a
green arrow points to the currently selected softkey.

190-02046-02 Rev. A10
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Touchscreen Controller’s functions are arranged by screen. Each screen has a title which appears at the
top of the screen area. The contents of each screen change dynamically in response to the selected control
mode, and to pilot or system input. At the top level of each mode is a corresponding MFD Home containing
mode-specific controls. PFD Home is MFD Home for PFD control mode. MFD Home is MFD Home for MFD
(i.e. Display Pane) control mode. ‘NAV/COM’ Home is MFD Home for NAV/COM control mode.
The Touchscreen Controller’s available functions for the selected control mode are accessible from MFD
Home. The MFD Home may be accessed any time it is not currently displayed by touching the Home Button
in the Button Bar below the screen area. Procedures in this Pilot’s Guide generally begin from MFD Home as
a reference point; however it is not necessary to return to MFD Home before performing each procedure if the
appropriate screen is already displayed.
As the Touchscreen Controller is used, certain selections will cause another screen to be displayed. To return
to the previous screen, touch the Back or Cancel Button (as applicable) in the Button Bar, or touch the Home
Button to return to MFD Home. If MFD Home was the previous screen, pressing either the Back or Home
Button will also return to MFD Home.
The Button Bar is also where the Home, Cancel, and Back buttons are displayed. If the system issues a
message, the MSG Button is shown. Touching this button will display the ‘Messages’ Screen. The Button Bar
also contains buttons for controlling the size of MFD Display Panes (Full or Half Mode), and PFD Display Panes
(Full or Split Mode), discussed later in this section. The following buttons may be displayed on the Button Bar,
depending on current availability and/or settings.

The Label Bar, on the right side of the Touchscreen Controller, displays the current function of each control
as a reference. These functions include Map Range adjustment, Display Pane selection, radio volume/squelch
adjustment, COM radio tuning, and alphanumeric data entry, which are controlled using the Touchscreen
Controller knob.
The labels change based on the context of the options being performed. If a Touchscreen Controller knob
cannot be used because of a failure in a system component (COM, NAV, Audio, etc.), the Label Bar also indicates
this status; refer to the Audio and CNS section for more information about radio failures.
The Touchscreen Controller recognizes input based on a touch, a gesture (such as sliding a finger), or by
pressing or turning the knobs or softkeys.
On-screen buttons are selected by momentarily touching them with a finger and then releasing. It is not
necessary to apply pressure, as the infrared touchscreen surface detects only the presence and movement of the
finger, not pressure. When touched, the button background is highlighted in blue until the finger is released.
If enabled, an aural ‘click’ sound is also issued to confirm the button has been touched. When releasing the
finger, make sure it released within the boundary of the button, otherwise the input is considered invalid. If
enabled, an aural ‘doink’ is heard to indicate the touch input was not accepted.
Some adjustments are made using horizontal or vertical sliders. To use, simply touch within the slider box
and slide the finger in the desired slider bar direction, then release the finger. The finger may move outside
of the slider box during adjustment; slider movement stops when either the finger is released or the slider
has reached its maximum travel. In some cases, the slider can also be adjusted by touching a + or - Button if
it accompanies the slider, such as in the Map Detail Adjustment Slider. In addition, a slider adjustment may
also be accomplished using knobs on the Touchscreen Controller if the Label Bar indicates the selected slider
supports this additional control.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
When a Touchscreen Controller screen window contains more information than the window can currently
show, a scroll bar and scroll buttons appear. To scroll inside of a window, touch the controller while moving
the finger up or down accordingly or touch and drag the finger up or down. To scroll more quickly, move the
finger up or down rapidly in a flicking motion. Scrolling can also be performed by pressing the Up or Down
scroll buttons, each touch of the scroll button will display one ‘page’ of information. Press and hold the Up or
Down scroll buttons for a continuous scroll.
Some screens provide tabs as a means to group multiple categories of information or buttons. Touch the
desired tab to display its contents and manage settings or information. The selected tab is highlighted.

Annunciator Buttons operate in an on/off state. An ‘on’ or enabled button displays a green annunciator; an
‘off’ or disabled button displays a gray annunciator. Touch the annunciator button to change its state.
Datafield Buttons can be modified based on information the pilot can enter or change, and often contain
cyan alphanumeric text. Touching datafield buttons will either display a pop-up window from which a
selection can be made, or display a keypad to supply the data. See the Data Entry discussion in this section
for more information.
