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

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

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.
Wpt Info
However, the pilot must recognize that providing monitoring and/or self-
test capability for all conceivable system failures is not practical. Although
Map
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
Traffic
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
