G1000 SYSTEM MESSAGE ADVISORIES

This section describes various G1000 system message advisories. Certain messages are issued due to an LRU

or an LRU function failure. Such messages are normally accompanied by a corresponding red ‘X’ annunciation
as shown previously in the G1000 System Annunciation section.

NOTE: This section provides information regarding G1000 message advisories that may be displayed by the system.
Knowledge of the aircraft, systems, flight conditions, and other existing operational priorities must be considered
when responding to a message. Always use sound pilot judgment. The Piper PA32 Pilot’s Operating Handbook
(POH) takes precedence over any conflicting guidance found in this section.

A red ‘X’ may be the result of an LRU or an LRU function failure. The Figure 12-5 illustrates all possible flags

and the responsible LRUs.
