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 Diamond DA42 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 Pilots Guide documentation and the G1000 Flight Manual Supplement. Thoroughly practice basic operation prior to actual use. During ight 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 Airmans Information Manual (AIM) recommend avoiding by at least 20 miles any thunderstorm identied as severe or giving an intense radar echo. CAUTION: The GDU 1040 PFD and MFD displays use a lens coated with a special anti-reective 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 specied as safe for anti-reective coatings.

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 modications could void both the warranty and the pilots 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 reect 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 Californias Proposition 65. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please refer to our web site at www.garmin.com/prop65. 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.

(10) Direct-to Key Allows the user to enter a destination waypoint and establish a direct course to the selected destination (specied by the identier, chosen from the active route, or taken from the map cursor position). (11) FPL Key Displays the active Flight Plan Page for creating and editing the active ight plan, or for accessing stored ight plans. (12) CLR Key (DFLT MAP) Erases information, cancels an entry, or removes page menus. To display the Navigation Map Page immediately, press and hold CLR (MFD only). (13) Dual FMS Knob Used to select the page to be viewed (only on the MFD). The large knob selects a page group (MAP, WPT, AUX, NRST), while the small knob selects a specic page within the page group. Pressing the small knob turns the selection cursor ON and OFF. When the cursor is ON, data may be entered in the different windows using the small and large knobs. The large knob is used to move the cursor on the page, while the small knob is used to select individual characters for the highlighted cursor location. When the G1000 displays a list that is too long for the display screen, a scroll bar appears along the right side of the display, indicating the availability of additional items within the selected category. Press the FMS/PUSH CRSR Knob to activate the cursor and turn the large FMS Knob to scroll through the list. (14) MENU Key Displays a context-sensitive list of options. This list allows the user to access additional features, or to make setting changes that relate to certain pages. (15) PROC Key Selects approaches, departures and arrivals from the ight plan. If a ight plan is used, available procedures for the departure and/or arrival airport are automatically suggested. If a ight plan is not used, the desired airport and the desired procedure may be selected. This key selects IFR departure procedures (DPs), arrival procedures (STARs) and approaches (IAPs) from the database and loads them into the active ight plan.
(16) ENT Key Accepts a menu selection or data entry. This key is used to approve an operation or complete data entry. It is also used to conrm selections and information entries. (17) Dual ALT Knob Sets the reference altitude in the box located above the Altimeter. The large knob selects the thousands, while the small knob selects the hundreds. Selected altitude provides an altitude setting for the Altitude Capture/Hold Mode, in addition to the standard G1000 altitude alerter function. (18) AP Key Engages/disengages the autopilot and ight director. Pressing the AP Key activates the ight director and engages the autopilot in the default pitch axis and roll axis modes. Pressing the AP Key again disengages the autopilot and deactivates the ight director. (19) FD Key Activates/deactivates the ight director only. Pressing the FD Key turns on the ight director in the default pitch axis and roll axis modes. Pressing the FD Key again deactivates the ight director and removes the command bars, unless the autopilot is engaged. If the autopilot is engaged, the FD Key is disabled. (20) NAV Key Selects/deselects Navigation Mode. (21) ALT Key Selects/deselects Altitude Hold Mode. (22) VS Key Selects/deselects Vertical Speed Mode. (23) FLC Key Selects/deselects Flight Level Change Mode. (24) YD Key Engages/disengages the yaw damper. (25) HDG Key Selects/deselects Heading Select Mode. (26) APR Key Selects/deselects Approach Mode. (27, 28) NOSE UP/NOSE DN Keys Controls the active pitch reference for the Pitch Hold, Vertical Speed, and Flight Level Change modes.

Airspeed Trend Vector

The end of the trend vector displays approximately what the airspeed will be in 6 seconds if the current rate of acceleration/deceleration is maintained.

Preight Test

Overspeed Protection
Overspeed protection is provided in situations where the ight director cannot acquire and maintain the vertical Mode Reference for the selected vertical mode without exceeding the certied maximum autopilot airspeed. When an autopilot overspeed condition occurs, the Airspeed Reference appears in a box above the Airspeed Indicator, ashing a yellow MAXSPD annunciation. Engine power should be reduced and/or the pitch reference adjusted to slow the aircraft. The annunciation disappears when the overspeed condition is resolved.
