WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon the use of the terrain avoidance

feature. The terrain avoidance 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 avoidance feature is only to be used as an aid for terrain avoidance. 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 the GPS receivers is geometric height above Mean Sea Level and

could vary signiﬁcantly from the altitude displayed by pressure altimeters, such as the GDC 74B Air Data

Computer, or other altimeters in aircraft. GPS altitude should never be used for vertical navigation. Always

use pressure altitude displayed by the PFD or other pressure altimeters in aircraft.

WARNING: Do not use outdated database information. Databases used in the system must be updated

regularly in order to ensure that the information remains current. Pilots using any outdated database do so

entirely at their own risk.

WARNING: Do not use basemap (land and water data) information for primary navigation. Basemap data is

intended only to supplement other approved navigation data sources and should be considered as an aid to

enhance situational awareness.

WARNING: Trafﬁc information shown on system displays 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: XM Weather should not be used for hazardous weather penetration. Weather information

provided by the GDL 69 is approved only for weather avoidance, not penetration.

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 Prodigy

™

Integrated Flight Deck, as installed in the Embraer Phenom 100 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 system. 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, system operational procedures must be learned on the ground.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

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 system utilize GPS as a precision electronic NAVigation

AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the system 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

Prodigy

™

Pilot’s Guide documentation and the Embraer Phenom 100 Airplane Flight Manual. Thoroughly

practice basic operation prior to actual use. During ﬂight operations, carefully compare indications from the

system 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 system to attempt to penetrate

a thunderstorm. Both the FAA Advisory Circular, Subject: Thunderstorms, and the

Aeronautical

Information

Manual (AIM) recommend avoiding “by at least 20 miles any thunderstorm identiﬁed as severe or giving an

intense radar echo.”

WARNING:

Lamp(s) inside this product may contain mercury (HG) and must be recycled or disposed of

according to local, state, or federal laws. For more information, refer to our website at www.garmin.com/

aboutGarmin/environment/disposal.jsp.

WARNING:

Because of variation in the earth’s magnetic ﬁeld, operating the system within the following

areas could result in loss of reliable attitude and heading indications. 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).

CAUTION: The 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: The system 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: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the panel and

displays, are subject to change and may not reﬂect the most current system and databases. Depictions of

equipment may differ slightly from the actual equipment.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

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 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.

NOTE

: Use of polarized eyewear may cause the ﬂight displays to appear dim or blank.
