WARNING: Because of anomalies in the earth’s magnetic field, operating
the G600 within the following areas could result in loss of reliable attitude
and heading indications. North of 70° North latitude and south of 70° South
latitude. An area north of 65° North latitude and between longitude 75°
West and 120° West. An area north of 70° North latitude and between
longitude 70° West and 128° West. An area north of 70° North latitude and
between longitude 85° East and 114° West. An area south of 55° South
latitude between longitude 120° East and 165° East.
WARNING: Do not use Terrain-SVT information for primary terrain
avoidance. Terrain-SVT is intended only to enhance situational
awareness.
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 Garmin GDU 620 utilize
GPS as a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with
all NAVAIDs, information presented by the GDU 620 can be misused or
misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
CAUTION: The Garmin GDU 620 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 GDU 620 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.
CAUTION: When interfaced with a GSR56 Iridium transceiver only one
SD card may be present in the GDU620 and it must be in the lower slot.
CAUTION: Garmin would like to remind pilots flying with GDL
69/69A-equipped aircraft that TFRs are only advisory and are not a
replacement for a thorough preflight briefing on TFR times and locations.
Always confirm TFR data through official sources and contact your Flight
Service Station for interpretation of TFR data.
