Legal Notes

The guarantee is immediately cancelled should the unit be
opened, misused, faulty installation, and any breach of copyright.
Limitations
PowerFLARM has been designed as a non-essential 'situation
awareness only' unit, whose task is solely to support the pilot; it
is not always in a position to provide a reliable warning. In
particular, PowerFLARM does not provide any suggestions as to
avoiding action. Under no circumstances does PowerFLARM
facilitate a change in flight tactics, user or commander response.
Even though you have installed PowerFLARM, you remain
responsible and liable for the safety of all passengers and other
aircraft. Operation of PowerFLARM is solely a matter at the
discretion of the user and commander. The unit may only be
operated by persons who have made a careful study of the user
instructions.
PowerFLARM can only warn of the presence of other aircraft that
are equipped with PowerFLARM or compatible equipment, and
of obstacles that are recorded in the internal data bank.
PowerFLARM does not communicate actively with A/C/S
transponders, and is therefore not detected by ACAS/TCAS/PCAS
or Air Traffic Control. Likewise, PowerFLARM does not
communicate actively with TIS-B, FIS-B and ADS-B.
FLARM has not undergone the conventional aeronautical
certification process. FLARM software development was
conducted in accordance with the usual standards and
procedures required for industrial electronics products. The
obstacle data bank in PowerFLARM is not certificated. The use of
public access unlicensed radio bandwidths in the air is subject to
a number of limitations, with some national differences. The pilot
and user of PowerFLARM are solely responsible that
PowerFLARM is operated in accordance with the valid local
regulations.
