Information provided by data link weather productsmay not accurately depict current weather conditions.Do not use the indicated data link weather product age to determine the age ofthe weather information shown by the data link weather product. Due to timedelays inherent in gathering and processing weather data for data linktransmission, the weather information shown by the data link weather productmay be significantly older than the indicated weather product age.Do not rely solely upon data link services to provide Temporary FlightRestriction (TFR) or Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) information. Not all TFRsand NOTAMS can be depicted on the GTN.Datalink text weather is decoded for the convenience of the pilot, however it ispossible that the decoding may be affected by anomalies in the data ordifferences in the units of measure between the decoding system and the textweather source. All text weather displayed on the GTN also includes the rawweather text for pilot review.2.18 Traffic Display (Optional)Traffic may be displayed on the GTN when connected to an approved optionalTCAS I, TAS, TIS, or ADS-B traffic device. These systems are capable ofproviding traffic monitoring and alerting to the flight crew. Traffic shown on thedisplay may or may not have traffic alerting available. The display of traffic isan aid to visual acquisition and may not be utilized for aircraft maneuvering.Traffic is displayed in feet regardless of the unit settings for altitude. If the unitsfor altitude are different than feet, a “FT” label will appear on the traffic icon onand main map page, and the dedicated traffic page will include an “ALT IN FT”notification.2.19 StormScope ® Display (Optional)StormScope ® lightning information displayed by the GTN is limited tosupplemental use only. The use of the StormScope ® lightning data on thedisplay for hazardous weather (thunderstorm) penetration is prohibited.StormScope ® lightning data on the display is intended only as an aid to enhancesituational awareness of hazardous weather, not penetration. It is the flightcrew’s responsibility to avoid hazardous weather using official weather datasources.When the GTN StormScope ® page is operating without a heading source, asindicated by the “HDG N/A” label at the upper right corner of the StormScope ®page, strikes must be cleared after each heading change.
