WARNINGS,
CAUTIONS, & NOTES
WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon the use of the terrain function.
.
The G1000 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 G1000 GPS receivers is geometric height above Mean Sea Level and could
vary significantly from the altitude displayed by pressure altimeters, such as the GDC 74A Air Data Computer,
or other altimeters in aircraft. GPS altitude should never be used for vertical navigation. Always use pressure
altitude displayed by the G1000 PFD or other pressure altimeters in aircraft.
WARNING: The Jeppesen database used in the G1000 system must be updated regularly in order to ensure
that its information remains current. Updates are released every 28 days. A database information packet is
included in the G1000 package. Pilots using an outdated database do so entirely at their own risk.
WARNING: The basemap (land and water data) must not be used for navigation, but rather only for nonnavigational situational awareness. Any basemap indication should be compared with other navigation
sources.
WARNING: Traffic information shown on the G1000 Multi Function Display 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: Use of the Stormscope® interface is not intended for hazardous weather penetration (thunderstorm
penetration). Stormscope information, as displayed on the G1000 MFD, is to be used only for weather avoidance,
not penetration.
WARNING: The GDL 69 Weather Interface should not be used for hazardous weather penetration. Weather
information provided by the GDL 69 is approved only for weather avoidance, not penetration.
Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the Mooney M20M, M20R, & M20TN
Page 5
WARNINGS,
CAUTIONS, & NOTES
WARNING: NEXRAD weather data is to be used for long-range planning purposes only. Due to inherent delays
in data transmission and the relative age of the data, NEXRAD weather data should not be used for short-range
weather avoidance.
WARNING: The Garmin G1000, as installed in the Mooney M20M, M20R, and M20TN aircraft, 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 G1000. 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, G1000 operational procedures must be learned on the ground.
WARNING: 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 G1000 utilize GPS as a precision electronic
NAVigation AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the G1000 can be misused
or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of the G1000
Pilot’s Guide documentation and the G1000 Flight Manual Supplement. Thoroughly practice basic operation
prior to actual use. During flight operations, carefully compare indications from the G1000 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 illustrations in this guide are only examples. Never use the G1000 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
radar echo.”
CAUTION: The GDU 1040 & 1042 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.

WARNINGS,
CAUTIONS, & NOTES
CAUTION: The Garmin G1000 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.
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.
NOTE: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the G1000 panel and
displays, are subject to change and may not reflect the most current G1000 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: 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

the Altitude Alerter is reset. The Altitude Alerter is
independent of the Automatic Flight Control System.
An aural tone is heard when the aircraft is within 1000
feet of acquiring the selected altitude or when deviating
beyond 200 feet of the acquired selected altitude. In
addition to the preceding tones, for S-TEC AFCS equipped
aircraft only, an aural tone is heard when the aircraft is

Visual annunciations alert the pilot when approaching
the MDA:
• When the aircraft altitude descends to within 2500
feet of the MDA setting, the Barometric Minimum
Box appears with the altitude in light blue text. The
bug appears on the tape in light blue once in range.
• When the aircraft passes through 100 feet of the

Automatic disengagement typically occurs due to a
failure. Automatic disengagement is annunciated by a
flashing ‘AP’, alternating red on white and white on red in
the Autopilot Status field. Also, the autopilot disconnect
aural alert will be heard. Both the annunciation and the
aural alert will continue until acknowledged by pressing
the AP DISC Button or the MET ARM Switch.
Manual Disengagement
The autopilot may also be manually disengaged by
pressing the AP DISC Button, the GA Button, the MET
ARM Switch, or by pressing the AP Key on the MFD.
Manual disengagement is annunciated by a five-second
flashing yellow ‘AP’ in the Autopilot Status field and by a
two-second autopilot disconnect aural alert.

6.7 EXAMPLE PROCEDURES USING AFCS
This section provides a scenario-based set of procedures
showing various autopilot modes used during a flight. In
this scenario, the aircraft departs Reid-Hillview Airport
(KRHV) from runway 13L, enroute to Fresno Yosemite
International Airport (KFAT). Climb to an altitude
of 7,000 feet MSL and fly a heading of 070 degrees to
intercept airway V107. Fly airway V107 to Panoche
VORTAC (PXN) using VOR navigation, then fly airway
V230 using a GPS flight plan. Prior to reaching Clovis
VORTAC (CZQ), descend to 3,000 feet and load the ILS
approach to R29R at KFAT. Fly the ILS approach and
execute a missed approach.

Not all approaches in the database are approved for GPS
use. When selecting an approach, a “GPS” designation to
the right of the procedure name indicates the procedure
can be flown using the GPS receiver. Some procedures
will not have this designation, meaning the GPS receiver
can be used for supplemental navigation guidance only.
If the GPS receiver cannot be used for primary guidance,
the appropriate navigation receiver must be used for the
selected approach (e.g., VOR or ILS). The final course
segment of ILS approaches, for example, must be flown
by tuning the Nav receiver to the proper frequency and
selecting that Nav receiver on the CDI.

NEXRAD Limitations
Certain limitations exist regarding the NEXRAD radar

• NEXRAD base reflectivity does not provide
sufficient information to determine cloud layers or
precipitation characteristics (hail vs. rain, etc).
• An individual NEXRAD site cannot depict high
altitude storms at close ranges, and has no
information about storms directly over the site.
• The resolution of displayed NEXRAD data is 2
kilometers. Therefore, when zoomed in on the
display, each square block is 2 kilometers on each
side. The intensity level reflected by the square
will be the highest level sampled within the square
area.

Manual System Test
A system test is automatically performed at power-up.
After sucessful completion of the test, “TAWS System Test, OK” will be heard.
The system test may also be initiated manually, but
only when the aircraft is on the ground. To manually verify
proper operation of the aural and visual annunciations
of the system, perform the following steps.

Forward Looking Terrain Avoidance (FLTA)
The Forward Looking Terrain Avoidance alert is
composed of two sub-functions:
Imminent Terrain Impact (
ITI) and Imminent
Obstacle Impact (IOI)
This provides alerts when the aircraft is below the
elevation of terrain in the aircraft’s projected path. ITI and
IOI alerts are accompanied by a potential impact point
displayed on the TAWS Page as a yellow or red ‘X’. The
alert is given when the projected vertical flight path is
calculated to come within minimum clearance altitudes
in the following table.
Phase of FlightLevel FlightDescending
Enroute700 ft.500 ft.
Terminal350 ft. 300 ft.
Approach150 ft.100 ft.
Departure100 ft.100 ft.
During the final approach phase of flight, RTC/ROC/
ITI/IOI alerts are automatically inhibited when the aircraft
is below 200 feet AGL while within 0.5 nm of the approach
runway or is below 125 feet AGL while within 1 nm of the
runway.
This provides alerts when the aircraft flight path
is above terrain and/or obstacles, yet is projected to
come within minimum clearance values outlined in the
following table. When an RTC or ROC alert is issued, a
potential impact point is displayed on the TAWS Page as
a yellow or red ‘X’.

AVOIDANCE
Premature Descent Alert (PDA)
A Premature Descent Alert is issued when the system
detects that the aircraft is significantly below the normal
approach path to a runway. The PDA alert mode functions
only during descent to land.
PDA alerting begins when the aircraft is within 15
nm of the destination airport and ends when the aircraft
is either 0.5 nm from the runway threshold OR is at
an altitude of 125 feet AGL while within 1 nm of the
threshold. During the final descent, algorithms will set a
threshold for alerting based on speed, distance, and other
parameters.
Excessive Descent Rate Alert (EDR)
The purpose of the Excessive Descent Rate alert is to
provide suitable alerts when the aircraft is determined
to be closing (descending) upon terrain at an excessive
speed. Figure 10-21 displays the correlation between
height above terrain and descent rate, resulting in the two
EDR alerts. EDR alerts have two levels of severity, caution
(sink rate) and warning (pull-up).

Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the Mooney M20M, M20R, & M20TN
The purpose of the Negative Climb Rate After Takeoff
alert is to provide suitable alerts to the pilot when the
system determines that the aircraft is losing altitude
(closing upon terrain) after takeoff. The aural message
“Don’t Sink” is given for NCR alerts, accompanied by an
annunciation and a pop-up terrain alert on the display.

The purpose of the aural alert message “Five-hundred”
is to provide an advisory alert to the aircrew that the
aircraft is five-hundred feet above terrain. When the
aircraft descends within 500 feet of terrain, the aural
message “Five-hundred” is heard. There are no display
annunciations or pop-up alerts that accompany the aural
message.
