WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon the use of the terrain function.The GTN 6XX 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. Terrain Proximity 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 GTN 6XX has a very high degree of functional integrity. However, the pilot must recognize that providing monitoring and/or selftest 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 GTN 6XX. 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: The altitude calculated by GPS receivers is geometric height above Mean Sea Level and could vary significantly from the altitude displayed by pressure altimeters, such as the output from the GDC 74A/B Air Data Computer, or other altimeters in aircraft. GPS altitude should never be used for vertical navigation. Always use pressure altitude displayed by pressure altimeters in the aircraft.

WARNING: Do not use outdated database information. Databases used in the GTN 6XX system must be updated regularly in order to ensure that the information remains current. Pilots using an outdated database do so entirely at their own risk.

WARNING: Do not use basemap (land and water data) information for primary navigation. Basemap data is intended only to supplement other approved navigation data sources and should be considered as an aid to enhance situational awareness.

GTN 625/635/650 Pilot’s Guide

190-01004-03 Rev. M

WARNING: Traffic information shown on the GTN 6XX is provided as an aid in visually acquiring traffic. Pilots must maneuver the aircraft based only upon ATC guidance or positive visual acquisition of conflicting traffic.

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 significantly older than the indicated weather product age.

WARNING: Never use datalinked weather to attempt to penetrate a thunderstorm. Both the FAA Advisory Circular, Subject: Thunderstorms, and the Airman's Information Manual (AIM) recommend avoiding "by at least 20 miles any thunderstorm identified as severe or giving an intense radio echo.

WARNING: For safety reasons, GTN 6XX operational procedures must be learned on the ground.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of the GTN 625/635/650 Pilot’s Guide. Thoroughly practice basic operation prior to actual use. During flight operations, carefully compare indications from the GTN 6XX 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.

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 GTN 6XX utilize GPS as a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the GTN 6XX can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.

CAUTION: The GTN 6XX 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 display lens has 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.

CAUTION: TFRs provided by datalink weather sources (i.e., FIS-B and SiriusXM) are only advisory and do not replace a thorough preflight briefing on TFR times and locations. Not all TFRs may be shown. To determine accurate TFR information, verify with official sources, i.e., preflight planning or flight service center.

NOTE: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the GTN bezel and displays, are subject to change and may not reflect the most current GTN software. 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: 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 website at www.garmin.com/prop65.

NOTE: Canadian installations: In accordance with Canadian Radio Specifications Standard 102 (RSS 102), RF field strength exposure to persons from an antenna connected to this device should be limited to 60 V/m for controlled environment and 28 V/m for uncontrolled environment.

NOTE: Do not use SafeTaxi functions as the basis for ground maneuvering. SafeTaxi functions do not comply with the requirements of AC 120-76C and are not qualified to be used as an airport moving map display (AMMD). SafeTaxi is to be used by the flight crew to orient themselves on the airport surface.

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 are assured compliance with all data quality requirements (DQRs) by virtue of a Type 2 Letter of Authorization (LOA) from the FAA. A copy of the Type 2 LOA is available for each database at www.flyGarmin.com.

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 AFM(S) and regulatory guidance or limitations as applicable to the pilot, the aircraft, and installed equipment.

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. To see if an exclusion report exists for a specific database, visit www.flyGarmin.com.

GTN 625/635/650 Pilot’s Guide

190-01004-03 Rev. M

Welcome

Welcome to the GTN era of navigation. The Garmin Touchscreen Navigator (GTN) supports airway navigation and flexible flight planning, including arrival and departure procedures and precision approaches. All of these advanced features are easily accessed with an easy-to-use touchscreen display, another first for general aviation. You can be confident in knowing that this product has been designed to meet or exceed industry performance standards and is supported through a global network of Garmin Aviation Distributors.

About This Guide

Take a little time to review the various sections of this guide to familiarize yourself with it. First, read this section and the Getting Started section as an introduction to quickly get you started with the GTN. The other sections are not meant to necessarily be read in order, but provide detailed information on the subject they contain as you need them. Do take the time to review the information before using the product to assist you in getting the most out of your avionics.

Generally, a feature will be described in a section that provides a brief description, a graphic functional diagram, and step-by-step procedures. If read cover-to-cover sequentially, the information may seem repetitive. The guide is designed as a reference and learning tool where you will generally skip around the document learning about a particular feature or function after becoming familiar with the unit.

Electronic Document Features

Versions of this guide are saved in the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) and have features that help the user navigate more easily through the document. The cover icons, table of contents, and index are hyperlinks that will take you directly to the selected item.

Versions of aviation products in PDF format are available at www.flyGarmin.com.

Foreword

1.1Model Descriptions

This guide covers the operation of the GTN 625, 635, and 650. In general, all models will be referred to as the GTN 6XX, except where there are physical or operational differences. The GTN 6XX units are approximately 6.25 inches wide and 2.65 inches high. The display is a 600 by 266 pixel, 4.9 inch diagonal color LCD with touchscreen controls. The units include one removable SD datacard for the databases and software upgrades.

The GTN 6XX simplifies your workload with an easy-to-use touch panel that provides a visual display of both controls and functions. The required controls are displayed for the selected function. Keys on the display allow you to access and control their functions by a simple touch on the interactive display.

The GTN 6XX can integrate a variety of avionics that will not only simplify operation, but also save panel space. The GTN 625, 635, and 650 have their own GPS/SBAS navigator and flight planning functions. The GTN 635 adds a VHF Com radio, while the 650 adds VHF Com and VHF Nav radios. Selected optional external equipment allows you to display and control active traffic systems, SirusXM Entertainment Radio, SiriusXM Weather, and a Mode S transponder directly from the GTN 6XX display, and more. When the optional transponder is not installed, the area on the right side of the display will show a line of navigation information instead of the transponder window.

1.1.1GTN 625

The GTN 625 has a GPS/SBAS engine and is TSO-C146c certified for primary domestic, oceanic, and remote navigation including en route, terminal, and non-precision approaches, and approaches with vertical guidance, such as LPV and LNAV/VNAV. The GTN 625 can simultaneously give aviators vital approach information and weather and traffic data in relation to their position on a large, color moving map display. Thanks to a high-contrast color display, the information can be easily read from wide viewing angles even in direct sunlight. Its color moving map features a built-in database that shows cities, highways, railroads, rivers, lakes, coastlines, and a complete Jeppesen database. The Jeppesen database (that can be updated with a front-loading datacard) contains all airports, VORs, NDBs, Intersections, FSSs, Approaches, DPs/STARs, and SUA information.
