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.
