............................................................................................................................... 8-1 vi Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Warnings, Cautions, and Notes 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 SOLELY UPON TERRAIN PROXIMITY DATA FOR TERRAIN AVOIDANCE. TERRAIN PROXIMITY IS NOT A CERTIFIED TERRAIN AWARENESS SYSTEM. IT IS AN AID TO SITUATIONAL AWARENESS ONLY. USING TERRAIN PROXIMITY DATA DOES NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES OR CONDITIONS RELIEVE THE PILOTS RESPONSIBILITY TO SEE AND AVOID TERRAIN OR OBSTACLES. 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 NEVER USE GPS ALTITUDE FOR VERTICAL NAVIGATION. THE ALTITUDE CALCULATED BY GPS RECEIVERS IS GEOMETRIC HEIGHT ABOVE MEAN SEA LEVEL AND COULD VARY SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE ALTITUDE DISPLAYED BY PRESSURE ALTIMETERS (E.G., THE OUTPUT FROM THE GDC 74A/B AIR DATA COMPUTER) OR OTHER ALTIMETERS IN THE AIRCRAFT. ALWAYS REFER TO THE PRESSURE ALTIMETERS IN THE AIRCRAFT FOR CURRENT PRESSURE ALTITUDE. WARNING NEVER USE EXPIRED DATABASES. UPDATE DATABASES REGULARLY TO ENSURE CURRENCY. USE OUT OF DATE DATABASE INFORMATION AT YOUR OWN RISK. WARNING NEVER 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. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide vii Warnings, Cautions, and Notes WARNING NEVER USE DATALINK WEATHER INFORMATION FOR MANEUVERING IN, NEAR, OR AROUND AREAS OF HAZARDOUS WEATHER. INFORMATION CONTAINED WITHIN DATALINK WEATHER PRODUCTS MAY NOT ACCURATELY DEPICT CURRENT WEATHER CONDITIONS. WARNING DO NOT USE THE INDICATED DATALINK WEATHER PRODUCT AGE TO DETERMINE THE AGE OF THE WEATHER INFORMATION SHOWN BY THE DATALINK WEATHER PRODUCT. DUE TO TIME DELAYS INHERENT IN GATHERING AND PROCESSING WEATHER DATA FOR DATALINK TRANSMISSION, THE WEATHER INFORMATION SHOWN BY THE DATALINK WEATHER PRODUCT MAY BE OLDER THAN THE INDICATED WEATHER PRODUCT AGE. WARNING DO NOT RELY SOLELY UPON DATALINK SERVICES TO PROVIDE TFR INFORMATION. ALWAYS CONFIRM TFR INFORMATION THROUGH OFFICIAL SOURCES SUCH AS FLIGHT SERVICE STATIONS OR AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL. WARNING ALWAYS REFER TO CURRENT AERONAUTICAL CHARTS FOR APPROPRIATE MINIMUM CLEARANCE ALTITUDES. THE DISPLAYED MSAs ARE ONLY ADVISORY IN NATURE AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED UPON AS THE SOLE SOURCE OF OBSTACLE AND TERRAIN AVOIDANCE INFORMATION. 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. 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 PILOTS RESPONSIBILITY TO SEE AND AVOID OTHER AIRCRAFT. viii Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Warnings, Cautions, and Notes WARNING DO NOT RELY ON THE ACCURACY OF ATTITUDE AND HEADING INDICATIONS IN GEOGRAPHIC AREAS WHERE VARIATION IN THE EARTHS MAGNETIC FIELD EXISTS. THIS INCLUDES: 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 DO NOT RELY SOLELY UPON DATALINK SERVICES TO PROVIDE TFR INFORMATION. ALWAYS CONFIRM TFR INFORMATION THROUGH OFFICIAL SOURCES SUCH AS FLIGHT SERVICE STATIONS OR AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL. WARNING DO NOT LEARN OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES IN THE AIR. FOR SAFETY REASONS, THOROUGHLY PRACTICE BASIC OPERATION ON THE GROUND BEFORE ACTUAL USE. WARNING REVIEW AND UNDERSTAND ALL ASPECTS OF THIS PILOTS GUIDE. DOING SO REDUCES THE RISK OF UNSAFE OPERATION. WARNING ALWAYS RESOLVE ANY DISCREPANCIES BETWEEN THE DISPLAY AND OTHER NAVIGATION SOURCES WHEN THEY OCCUR. DURING FLIGHT OPERATIONS, COMPARE DISPLAY INDICATIONS TO INFORMATION FROM OTHER NAVAIDS, VISUAL SIGHTINGS, CHARTS, AND OTHER AVAILABLE SOURCES BEFORE CONTINUING NAVIGATION. CAUTION DO NOT CLEAN DISPLAY SURFACES WITH ABRASIVE CLOTHS OR CLEANERS CONTAINING AMMONIA. THEY WILL HARM THE ANTI-REFLECTIVE COATING. CAUTION ENSURE THAT ANY UNIT REPAIRS ARE MADE BY AN AUTHORIZED GARMIN SERVICE CENTER. UNAUTHORIZED REPAIRS OR MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID BOTH THE WARRANTY AND AFFECT THE AIRWORTHINESS OF THE AIRCRAFT. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide ix Warnings, Cautions, and Notes NOTE The application supports channel tuning for both 8.33 kHz and 25 kHz channels within radio-frequency range. If flying in a region where 8.33 kHz channel spacing is available, set the COM radio to 8.33 kHz to prevent the loss of any stored or recently used frequencies. 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 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 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 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 Use of polarized eye wear 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 Californias Proposition 65. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please refer to our website at www.garmin.com/prop65. x Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Warnings, Cautions, and Notes 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 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 for use as an airport moving map display. SafeTaxi is to be used for orientation purposes only. NOTE The FAA has asked Garmin to remind pilots who fly with Garmin database-dependent avionics of the following:
It is the pilots 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 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 pilots 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 Garmins 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 Aviation Database Declarations. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide xi Compliance 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. Visit flyGarmin.com and select Aviation Data Error Report. 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. AC 90-100A Statement of Compliance The Garmin navigational unit meets the performance and functional requirements of FAA Advisory Circular (AC) 90-100A, U.S. Terminal and En Route Area Navigation

Auto Setting Annunciation Manual Setting Annunciation 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 2-41 Get Started CDI scale is set to Auto (default). At the default setting, the scale sets to 2.0 nm during the en route phase of flight. Aircraft is within 31 nm of the destination airport (i.e., terminal area). The scale linearly ramps down to 1.0 nm over a distance of 1 nm. Aircraft is leaving the departure airport. The scale is set to 1.0 nm once the aircraft is over 30 nm from the departure airport. It begins to gradually ramp up to 2 nm when the flight phase changes from terminal (TERM) to en route (ENR). During GPS approach operations, the scale gradually transitions down to an angular scale. Aircraft is 2.0 nm before the final approach fix. Scaling tightens from 1.0 nm to the angular full-scale deflection defined for the approach (typically 2.0). Selecting a lower value (0.3 nm or 1.0 nm) prevents the selection of higher scale settings during ANY phase of flight. Example: If you select 1.0 nm, the unit uses this setting for en route and terminal phases, and ramps down further during approach. 2.22.1 Horizontal Alarm Limits Horizontal alarm limits (HAL) are used to compare against GPS position integrity. These protection limits follow the CDI scale, unless the corresponding flight phase requires a lower HAL. For example, the selected scale setting is 1.0 nm, but full-scale deflection during approach still follows the approach scale setting (0.30 nm).

PAN & ZOOM Panning allows movement of the map in any direction without change to the current zoom setting. Zooming adjusts the current magnification level between pre-defined range parameters. Before flight, consider which map scales are best for achieving the desired level of detail and map information. Generally, use smaller map scales in and around terminal areas and whenever precise navigation is required (e.g., airway or radial intercepts). During cruise flight, increase the map scale to better balance navigation, situational awareness, and decision making.

USER WAYPOINT IDENTIFIER Assign a unique identifier or keep the unit generated identifier. By default, the identifier format is USR followed by a sequential three digit number. User waypoints are helpful when ATC requests that you fly one radial to intercept another. While the point is often defined by an intersection in the navigation database, this is not always the case. The Create User Waypoint function allows you to define the new intersection and insert it into the flight plan in advance, as opposed to using the NAV radio to tune each VOR and specify the radials to fly inbound and outbound. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-51 Navigation 3.16.1 Define Waypoint Criteria Active user waypoints already existing in a flight plan are not editable.

The published instrument approach procedures allow precision and non-precision approaches to airports and are directly accessible from the Procedures (PROC) icon. FEATURE REQUIREMENTS Baro-corrected altitude source (automatic sequencing of altitude leg types) In the absence of baro-corrected altitude data, altitude leg types require manual sequencing. FEATURE LIMITATIONS The flight plan allows only one procedure to be loaded at a time. Adding a new procedure overwrites any existing procedure LOAD A PROCEDURE Select a procedure type, then define the criteria for that procedure on the corresponding setup page. By default, these keys display underscores. Upon completion, the specified airport and procedure appear on the associated key. When loading a procedure, always remember to check the runway, transition, and all waypoints. COMMON PAGE CONTROLS All procedure pages provide the following setup controls. Airport: Select an airport for the procedure. Transition: Select a transition. Runway: Select a runway for the selected airport. Preview: View a 2-D map of the surrounding area (includes SafeTaxi airport depictions). For page specific controls, refer to the appropriate procedure description. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-57 Navigation 3.18 Flight Procedure Basics NOTE Advisory climb altitudes for SIDs may not match charted altitudes. Do not rely solely on advisory altitudes. Always check the runway, transition, and waypoints for all procedures. Heading legs indicate in white as HDG XXX on flight plans. The unit provides lateral and, when appropriate, vertical guidance for visual and GPS/RNAV approaches. Use Map as an aid to situational awareness during ILS, VOR, NDB, and non-precision localizer-based approaches. A magenta line depicts the active leg (or the portion of the approach currently in use). Always use the appropriate radio navigational aid for primary approach course guidance during non-GPS approaches. Check the annunciator bar for the current phase of flight. Many non-precision approaches have GPS overlays, improving accuracy so that approaches do not require overflying a VOR or NDB. The unit guides you through complex overlay approaches, automatically sequencing each leg up to the missed approach point. Fly approaches as published with the full transition using any published feeder route or initial approach fix, or with a vectors-to-final transition. While not required under TSO-C146e, an optional baro-corrected altitude source is recommended for automatic sequencing of altitude leg types. When adding procedures to a flight plan:
Arrange procedures around the existing flight plan as follows:
Departure, En route, Arrival, Approach Insert departure waypoints before en route waypoints Insert arrival waypoints between en route and approach waypoints Always verify that the transition waypoints between each phase are correct Map complements your printed approach plates by improving situational awareness during the approach. It does not replace printed approach plates. Always fly an approach as it appears on the approach plate. 3-58 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Navigation Roll Steering Autopilots Roll steering terminates when approach mode is selected on the autopilot. It becomes available once you initiate the missed approach. TO/FROM LEGS ON CDI TO LEGS FROM LEGS On these legs, the FROM/TO flag on the CDI indicates TO and the Distance field on the flight plan decreases as you navigate the leg. Most legs are this type. On these legs, the FROM/TO flag on the CDI indicates FROM and the Distance field on the flight plan increases as you navigate the leg. From legs are typically found on procedure turns and on some missed approach procedures. Composite CDI. When interfaced to a composite type CDI, the composite CDI flag shows only TO indications. Always refer to the FROM/TO field on the annunciator bar when using composite CDI. FROM/TO Field 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-59 Navigation 3.18.1 GPS Flight Phase Annunciations Flight Phase

This annunciation appears in the procedure field of the annunciator bar. Suspended approaches typically occur during:
Holding patterns Crossing the missed approach point Climb to altitude legs Hold to altitude legs 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-67 Navigation PROCEDURE TURNS Roll Steering &
Procedure Turns The steering provided for a procedure turn does not guarantee that the aircraft will stay within the charted procedure turn boundaries. Always be sure to fly within the confines of the charted procedure. A procedure turn is stored as another approach leg. It does not require any special operations other than flying the procedure itself. Roll steering is available for aircraft with a compatible autopilot. 3.21.1 Flight Plan Approach Options Selecting an approach on the flight plan opens a menu. Changes to the active flight plan take effect immediately. Activate the selected approach Activate vectors to final for the selected approach Activate a missed approach Select a new approach Remove the selected approach from the flight plan 3-68 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Navigation 3.21.2 Missed Approach The method for activating a missed approach depends on your position in relation to the missed approach point. BEFORE MISSED APPROACH POINT Select Activate Missed Approach. This function is available in two locations. Active FPL:
Home > Flight Plan > Select the approach > Activate Missed Approach OR Procedures:
Home > Procedures > Activate Missed Approach Once selected, guidance continues along an extension of the final approach course
(i.e., final approach fix to missed approach point). The unit automatically sequences to the first leg of the missed approach. This allows you to execute the missed approach prior to reaching the missed approach point. AFTER MISSED APPROACH POINT Upon reaching the missed approach point, a pop-up presents two options. To continue with sequencing suspended, tap Remain Suspended. To receive guidance to the missed approach hold point, tap Activate GPS Missed Approach. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-69 Navigation 3.21.3 Approach Hold Selecting an approach hold on the flight plan opens a menu. Changes to the active flight plan take effect immediately.

A pop-up presents two options. Selecting Yes adds the hold to the flight plan. Preview shows the hold in white. Selecting No means the hold is not included in the flight plan. Preview shows the hold in gray. Timer/Distance field displays on the active flight plan (refer here when flying the outbound portion of the holding pattern). Holding pattern appears on Map with the active flight plan leg indication. CROSSING MISSED APPROACH POINT When crossing the missed approach point:
SUSP annunciation indicates that approach waypoint sequencing is suspended at the missed approach point FROM/TO flag on the CDI indicates From for non-composite CDIs FROM/TO field on the annunciator bar indicates FR Course guidance continues along the final approach course If you need to go around the holding pattern again to lose extra altitude or speed, tap SUSP to manually suspend waypoint sequencing before crossing the holding waypoint the second time. If you have already passed the waypoint, re-activate the holding pattern. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-71 Navigation 3.21.4 DME Arc DME Arc Approaches Left/right guidance relative to the arc Manual arc leg activation once aircraft is near the arc The unit supports approaches containing DME arcs. To manually activate DME Arc, the aircraft must be within the shaded area. DME Arc Intermediate Approach Fix Initial Approach Fix X 1/2 X Arcing Fix (VOR) 3-72 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 3.21.5 RF Legs AC 90-101A - RF Legs AC 90-101A defines RF leg as A constant radius circular path, around a defined turn center, that starts and terminates at a fix. An RF leg may be published as part of a procedure. Navigation The unit supports radius-to-fix (RF) legs associated with RNAV RNP 1.0 non-AR approaches, when approved by the installation. Flying a radius-to-fix approach is similar to flying a DME arc approach (status indications are identical). Unlike DME arcs, however, RF legs are not based on a VOR. They may have varying radii, making them larger or smaller than arc legs. For details regarding RF legs for specific aircraft, consult the AFMS. 3.21.6 Vectors to Final Activating the approach with vectors to final displays an extension of the final approach course on Map. Magenta depicts the active leg of the flight plan. CDI needle remains off center until you are established on the final approach course. As a reminder, vtf annunciates as part of the active leg on the GPS Nav status key. Activating vectors-to-final while on the From side of the final approach fix suspends automatic waypoint sequencing. SUSP annunciates at the bottom of the screen. Sequencing resumes once the aircraft is on the To side of the final approach fix and within full-scale deflection. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-73 Navigation 3.21.7 ILS Approach NOTE ILS and LOC approaches are not approved for GPS. GPS guidance is for monitoring purposes only. Selecting an ILS or LOC approach results in a pop-up message. Activate the approach or select a different one. Do not attempt to use the unit as the primary navigation source during ILS approach. Fly RNAV approaches according to the published chart. 3.21.8 RNAV Approaches Always fly to the published minimums for:
LNAV/VNAV LNAV LNAV+V LPV LP LP+V LNAV APPROACH RNAV non-precision lateral navigation approach. LNAV+V APPROACH RNAV non-precision LNAV approach with advisory vertical guidance. The glidepath is a light dashed line on the vertical profile (Jeppesen charts only) with an associated glidepath angle (usually in the 3.00 degree range) to assist in maintaining a constant vertical glidepath, similar to an ILS glideslope. 3-74 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Navigation LPV APPROACH Localizer performance with vertical guidance. Similar to flying the standard ILS approach. This segment describes a typical LPV approach sequence and the necessary pilot actions. Within 31 nm of destination:
Mode switches from En Route to Terminal CDI scale transitions from 2.0 nm to 1.0 nm, full-scale deflection Approaching initial approach fix:
Waypoint message annunciates Time to Turn advisory annunciates and 10 second timer counts down as the distance approaches zero 2.0 nm from final approach fix:
CDI scaling tightens from 1 nm to the approach-defined angular full-scale deflection 60 seconds before final approach fix:
System verifies GPS position integrity is within approach limits If GPS integrity exceeds the horizontal and/or vertical alarm limits:
Approach downgrades to non-precision LNAV annunciates on Map to inform of the change if there are LNAV minimums for the approach Advisory message: GPS approach downgraded. Use LNAV minima. Glideslope indication disappears Pilot continues approach using LNAV non-precision minimums, if applicable If GPS integrity does not meet the non-precision horizontal alarm limits:
Advisory message: Abort Approach. GPS approach is no longer available. Pilot acknowledges message Unit reverts to terminal limits of 1 nm to support navigation to the missed approach After the aircraft passes final approach fix:
Approach aborts due to a loss of WAAS integrity Pilot captures the glideslope (method is same as for ILS glideslope) 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-75 Navigation When crossing the final approach fix:
Waypoint sequences to the missed approach point
(e.g., RW31, the runway threshold) Pilot flies toward missed approach point, keeping the needle on the external CDI (or HSI) at center, and observing published altitude minimums Final course segment becomes the active flight plan leg on Map Approaching missed approach point:
Advisory message: Arriving at Waypoint. Crossing missed approach point:
Sequencing suspends Pop-up message: Missed Approach Waypoint Reached Pilot decides whether to remain suspended or activate the missed approach Tapping Remain Suspended allows you to continue with sequencing suspended Tapping Activate GPS Missed Approach allows you to continue with guidance to the missed approach hold point Prepare aircraft for missed approach operation:
Pilot taps UNSUSP (sequences missed approach), then follows the unit provided guidance to the missed approach hold point and holds 3-76 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Navigation LP APPROACH Points About LP Approaches Use SBAS accuracy, making them similar to an LNAV approach but more precise Combine the lateral accuracy of an LPV approach with the angular scaling of a localizer approach Often contain step-down altitudes Always result in a minimum descent altitude and missed approach point This segment describes a typical LP approach sequence and the necessary pilot actions. Within 30 nm of destination:
Mode switches from En Route to Terminal CDI scale transitions from 2.0 nm to 1.0 nm, full-scale deflection Approaching initial approach fix:
Turn direction message annunciates Time to Turn advisory annunciates and 10 second timer counts down as the distance approaches zero Approaching final approach fix:
Unit begins to automatically rescale in an angular fashion, allowing you to fly as you would a standard localizer approach 2.0 nm from final approach fix:
CDI scaling tightens from 2 degrees or 0.3 nm full-scale deflection, whichever is smaller 60 seconds before final approach fix:
System verifies GPS position integrity is within the horizontal limits to complete the LP non-precision approach 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-77 Navigation If pilot exceeds the horizontal alarm limits:
Approach downgrades to non-precision LNAV annunciates on Map to inform of the change Advisory message: GPS approach downgraded. Use LNAV minima. Pilot continues approach using LNAV non-precision minimums, if applicable If GPS integrity does not meet the non-precision horizontal alarm limits:
Advisory message: Abort Approach. GPS approach is no longer available. Pilot acknowledges message Unit reverts to terminal limits of 1 nm to support navigation to the missed approach If the approach indicates LP+V, then advisory vertical guidance may be removed without annunciation. This is due to the vertical guidance not being within tolerances. This does not constitute a downgrade. You may still fly the approach to LP minimums. When crossing the final approach fix:
Waypoint sequences to the missed approach point
(e.g., RW31, the runway threshold) Pilot flies toward missed approach point, keeping the needle on the external CDI (or HSI) at center, observing published altitude minimums Final course segment becomes the active flight plan leg on Map Approaching missed approach point:
Advisory message: Arriving at Waypoint. At the missed approach point:
Pilot initiates missed approach, if necessary 3-78 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Navigation Crossing missed approach point:
Sequencing suspends Pop-up message: Missed Approach Waypoint Reached Pilot decides whether to remain suspended or activate the missed approach Tapping Remain Suspended allows you to continue with sequencing suspended Tapping Activate GPS Missed Approach allows you to continue with guidance to the missed approach hold point Prepare aircraft for missed approach operation:
Pilot taps UNSUSP (sequences missed approach) NOTE: For missed approaches with heading legs, fly manually until you reach the first active course leg. Pilot follows the unit provided guidance to the missed approach hold point and holds LP+V Flying an LP approach with advisory vertical guidance (LP+V) does not change how the approach should be flown. The pilot is still responsible for descending to the correct altitude at each step down. The result is still an MDA and missed approach point. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 3-79 Navigation 3.21.9 Visual Approach Points About Visual Approaches Provide advisory horizontal and optional vertical guidance for the selected runway Lateral guidance is always provided for visual approaches Helps stabilize the runway approach Three methods for loading and activation FEATURE REQUIREMENTS Valid terrain database FEATURE LIMITATIONS Not all airports in the database support visual approaches Only external CDI/VDI displays provide vertical deviation indications Published data is used to determine the visual approach GPA and threshold crossing height (TCH) for the selected runway. If no published data is available, the default is 3 degrees GPA and 50 ft TCH. You may load and activate a visual approach from the following apps. Map Procedures Waypoint Info Upon loading the visual approach, a pop-up informs when vertical guidance is available. If available, the pop-up contains the glidepath angle (GPA) and threshold crossing (TCH). If unavailable, it reads: NO VERTICAL GUIDANCE Terrain and obstacle obstructions along the approach path determine the availability of vertical guidance advisories for visual approaches. If no known obstructions are within the approach path, vertical guidance is provided to a maximum distance of 28 nm from the runway. If there are known obstructions further than 3 nm, but within the 28 nm maximum distance from the runway along the approach, vertical guidance is limited to the approach path after crossing the known obstructions. After loading the approach, a shortened magenta line shows on the map. If obstructions are within 3 nm to the runway, along the approach path, advisory vertical guidance is not available. 3-80 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Navigation LOAD A VISUAL APPROACH FROM MAP When the aircraft is within 10 nm of the destination airport, the Visual Approach selector key becomes active. This key may appear in one of two places:
On the map or at the left of the screen if the supporting airport is selected. 1. Select the airport icon. 2. Tap Visual. 3. Select from the list of available visual approaches. Once selected, the visual approach immediately loads and activates. For more about Visual Approach key configuration, refer to section 3.1.4. LOAD A VISUAL APPROACH FROM PROCEDURES Two methods:

RAIM performs checks to ensure the navigator has adequate satellite geometry during flight. NOTE RAIM availability prediction is for use in areas where WAAS coverage is not available. It is not required in areas where WAAS coverage is available. FEATURE REQUIREMENTS Active flight plan and off-route direct-to waypoint (arrival date and time) FEATURE LIMITATIONS FAAs TSO requirements for non-precision approaches specify significantly greater satellite coverage than is required during other phases of flight. As a result, RAIM may not be available for all approaches. RAIM prediction results are valid for up to 90 days from the current date. Arrival dates beyond 90 days, or in the past, may not provide accurate results. This feature predicts the availability of fault detection integrity. It cannot predict the availability of LPV or L/VNAV approaches. Use a non-GPS based approach when RAIM is not available. To determine WAAS availability, including for LPV approaches, visit the FAAs NOTAM service. 4.5 RAIM Prediction Page The RAIM feature can help you plan for a pending flight by confirming GPS operation before an approach. RAIM Features Automatically monitors RAIM during approach operations and warns when RAIM is not available Near 100% availability in Oceanic, En route, and Terminal phases of flight Waypoint Identifier, Arrival Date, and Arrival Time setup keys Compute RAIM key 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 4-11 Planning 4.5.1 Calculating RAIM Status Calculate RAIM availability for the specified waypoint, date, and time.

GPS 175/GNC 355: Feature availability dependent upon unit configuration. Requires external ADS-B In product (GDL 88, GTX 345) and FIS-B. 5-2 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Hazard Awareness Weather Awareness WARNING DO NOT RELY SOLELY ON DATALINK WEATHER FOR WEATHER INFORMATION. DATALINK WEATHER PROVIDES A SNAPSHOT IN TIME. IT MAY NOT ACCURATELY REFLECT THE CURRENT WEATHER SITUATION. NOTE Datalink weather is not intended to replace weather briefings or in-flight weather reports from AFSS or ATC. FEATURE REQUIREMENTS GPS 175/GNC 355 with UAT receiver (GDL 88, GTX 345) and FIS-B OR GNX 375 and FIS-B The FAA provides FIS-B as a Surveillance and Broadcast Service operating on the UAT
(978 MHz) frequency band. FIS-B uses a network of FAA-operated ground-based transceivers to transmit weather datalink information to the aircrafts receiver on a scheduled continuous basis. The Flight Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B) Weather service is freely available for aircraft equipped with a capable datalink universal access transceiver (UAT). Ground stations provide uninterrupted services for the majority of the contiguous U.S., Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico, and parts of Alaska. No weather subscription service is required. For the latest FAA ground station coverage information, visit:
www.faa.gov/nextgen/programs/adsb/
5.1 Data Transmission Limitations FIS-B broadcasts provide weather data in a repeating cycle which may take several minutes to completely transmit all available weather data. Therefore, not all weather data may be immediately present upon initial FIS-B signal acquisition. 5.1.1 Line of Sight Reception To receive FIS-B weather information, the aircrafts datalink receiver must be within range and line-of-sight of an operating ground-based transceiver. Reception may be affected by altitude, terrain, and other factors. Per the FAA, much of the United States has FIS-B In airborne coverage at and above 3,000 feet AGL. Terminal coverage is available at altitudes below 3,000 feet AGL and is available when flying near approximately 235 major U.S. airports. Surface coverage allows FIS-B ground reception at approximately 36 major U.S. airports. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 5-3 Hazard Awareness 5.1.2 Per FAA TSO-C157b FIS-B information may be used for pilot planning decisions focused on updating the pilot's awareness of the dynamic flight environment; including avoiding areas of inclement weather that are beyond visual range and pilot near-term decisions where poor visibility precludes visual acquisition of inclement weather. FIS-B weather and NAS status information may be used as follows:
a. To promote pilot awareness of ownship location with respect to reported weather, including hazardous meteorological conditions; NAS status indicators to enhance pilot planning decisions; and pilot near-term decision-making. b. To cue the pilot to communicate with Air Traffic Control, Flight Service Station specialist, operator dispatch, or airline operations control center for general and mission critical meteorological information, NAS status conditions, or both. FIS-B information, including weather information, NOTAMs, and TFR areas, are intended for the sole purpose of assisting in long-/near-term planning and decision making. The system lacks sufficient resolution and updating capability necessary for aerial maneuvering associated with immediate decisions. In extreme scenarios, the oldest weather radar data on the display can be up to 15 to 20 minutes older than the displays age indication for that weather radar data. Therefore, do not attempt to use FIS-B weather information to maneuver the aircraft at minimum safe distances from hazardous weather. FIS-B information must not be used in lieu of a standard preflight briefing. c. FIS-B uplink is a subscription-free FIS broadcast managed by FAA SBS. It provides an FAA approved source for METAR, TAF, WINDS, PIREPs, NEXRAD, AIRMET, SIGMET, and TFR information, and is subject to the broadcast range limits for these products.

190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 5-9 Hazard Awareness 5.5.3 FIS-B NEXRAD WARNING NEVER USE NEXRAD WEATHER FOR MANEUVERING IN, NEAR, OR AROUND AREAS OF HAZARDOUS WEATHER. NEXRAD IMAGES ARE SNAPSHOTS OF PAST WEATHER DATA. THEY ARE NOT SAFE FOR USE AS REAL TIME DEPICTIONS OF NEARBY WEATHER ACTIVITY. CONUS NEXRAD Regional NEXRAD NEXRAD weather radar displays a mosaic of precipitation data, colored according to reflectivity. Composite reflectivity images depict the highest radar energy received from multiple antenna tilt angles at various altitudes. Base reflectivity images depict radar returns from the lowest antenna tilt angle. Per AC 00-63A, FIS-B CONUS and Regional NEXRAD are composite reflectivity images. The precipitation intensity level reflected by each pixel represents the highest level of composite radar reflectivity data sampled in that location. A clear understanding of ground-based Doppler weather radar capabilities will allow you to interpret the NEXRAD weather imagery in the safest way possible. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration hosts a description of the technology on its website: https://www.weather.gov/jetstream/doppler_intro RADAR DATA ANIMATIONS To depict trending weather movements over time, an animation function stitches the last three to six received radar images together in sequence, from oldest to newest, and replays them on a continuous loop. Play and stop controls are active when three or more NEXRAD images are available for playback. 5-10 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 CONUS & REGIONAL NEXRAD FIS-B NEXRAD is uplinked to the aircraft as two separate weather products:
CONUS and Regional NEXRAD. Both products display individually or simultaneously, separated by a white hash-marked boundary, based on source selection. Hazard Awareness Regional Echo Block Regional Boundary CONUS Echo Block CONUS & Regional NEXRAD Combined Depending on the locations of received FIS-B ground stations, Regional NEXRAD coverage can extend as far as 250 nm around an aircrafts position. Aircraft flying at higher altitudes typically receive data from more ground stations than aircraft flying at low altitudes. FIS-B NEXRAD does not differentiate between liquid and frozen precipitation types. Source options are selectable from the weather setup menu or the NEXRAD key at the bottom left of the FIS-B Weather page. The key label changes to reflect the active source. CONUS Regional Combined CONUS Regional Large, low-resolution weather image for the entire continental U.S. Pixels are 7.5 min (7.5 nm = 13.89 km) wide by 5 min

These include visual alerts when the aircraft flies below an alerting threshold. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 5-31 Hazard Awareness 5.14.1 GPS Altitude for Terrain FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS GPS altitude is derived from satellite measurements. To acquire an accurate 3-D fix
(latitude, longitude, altitude), a minimum of four operating satellites must be in view of the GPS receiver antenna. The terrain system uses GPS altitude and position data to:
Create a 2-D image of surrounding terrain and obstacles relative to the aircrafts position and altitude Calculate the aircrafts flight path in relation to surrounding terrain and obstacles Predict hazardous terrain conditions and issue alerts GSL ALTITUDE & INDICATED ALTITUDE The unit converts GPS altitude data to GSL altitude (i.e., the geometric altitude relative to MSL) for use in terrain functions. All Terrain page depictions and elevation indications are in GSL. Variations between GSL altitude and the aircrafts corrected barometric altitude (or indicated altitude) are common. As a result, Terrain page altitude data may differ from current altimeter readings. Both GSL altitude and indicated altitude represent height above MSL, but differ in accuracy and reliability. GSL ALTITUDE Highly accurate and reliable geometric altitude source INDICATED ALTITUDE Barometric altitude source corrected for pressure variations Does not require local altimeter Requires frequent altimeter settings to determine height above MSL Not subject to pressure and temperature variations Affected primarily by satellite geometry setting adjustment to determine height above MSL Subject to local atmospheric conditions Affected by variations in pressure, temperature, and lapse rate 5-32 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Hazard Awareness 5.15 Database Limitations NOTE Garmin cross-validates terrain and obstacle data in accordance with TSO-C151c. However, the information should never be considered all-inclusive. Database inaccuracies or omissions may exist. Terrain and obstacle data are not available when the aircraft is operating outside of the installed database coverage area. Garmin obtains terrain and obstacle data from government sources and cannot independently verify the accuracy and completeness of the information. Pilots must familiarize themselves with the appropriate charts and other data for safe flight.

<WPT>. 6-8 Pilots Guide 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Messages Points About Non-WGS84 Waypoints There are several types of geodetic datums that a waypoint can reference. TSO-C146 requires that all waypoints reference the WGS84 datum, but allows for navigation to coordinates not compliant with this standard as long as the pilot is notified of the potential difference in location. Not all waypoints in the navigation database reference the WGS84 datum. For some of these coordinates the reference datum is unknown. In such cases, the Non-WGS84 Waypoint advisory displays. Garmin cannot determine the exact proximity of a non-compliant waypoint to the WGS84 datum in use by the system. Typically, the distance is < 2 nm. Most non-WGS84 waypoints are outside of the United States. 6.7 Pilot Specified Advisories These advisories display when the associated timer expires or reaches a preset value.

All tasks must be performed while the aircraft is on the ground. 7.1 Glove Qualification The touchscreen uses capacitive touch technology to sense the proximity of skin to the display. A glove creates a barrier between the skin and the display glass, potentially reducing the ability of the display to detect touches. This procedure qualifies a specific glove for use with the touchscreen. Due to differences in finger size and glove size, the qualification procedure is specific to the pilot/glove combination. Multiple units must be evaluated individually. GLOVE SELECTION CONSIDERATIONS Thinner gloves perform better than thicker gloves. Leather gloves, and gloves designed specifically for use with capacitive touchscreen devices, are often found to be acceptable. To improve touchscreen sensitivity while wearing gloves, use the pad of your finger instead of the tip during touch interactions. GLOVE QUALIFICATION GUIDANCE Checklist 1 contains the tasks required to qualify a glove. Checklist 2 contains tasks that are not required to qualify a glove, but may limit how some functions are accessed while wearing a glove. 190-02488-01 Rev. 1 Pilots Guide 7-1 Qualification GLOVE QUALIFICATION STEPS Complete only the tasks for the capabilities relevant to the installed navigator. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Sit in the pilots seat. Start the unit in normal mode. Perform the tasks listed in each checklist, tapping the specified keys with a non-gloved finger. It is not necessary to record any results for this step. Repeat step 3 using a gloved hand. For each task, determine whether the touchscreen response is the same or worse than without the glove. Record the results in the applicable column. Items that may cause the operation to be worse include, but are not limited to:
Multiple attempts to select a key Unintentional selection of adjacent key(s) Excessive force on the touchscreen to select a key If all applicable tasks produce the same response with and without a glove, the pilot may use the glove in flight. GLOVE QUALIFICATION PROCEDURE Pilot:
