Emergency Parachute System Activation
The aircraft is equipped with Emergency Parachute System. (EPS) should be activated in the event of a life-threatening
emergency where EPS deployment is safer than continued flight and landing.
Occupants must be in the emergency landing body braced position before touchdown. After touchdown, maintain the
emergency landing body position until the aircraft is completely stopped.
The recommended emergency landing body position is assumed with the both hands placed on the lap, one wrist
clasped with the opposite hand and with the upper torso erect against the backrest.
Follow this procedure when deciding to deploy EPS:
a. Impact area Determine (flat terrain, no trees or obstacles – if possible)
b. Airspeed Minimum, if possible
c. IGNITION OFF both circuits (if time and altitude permit)
d.

WARNING
EPS deployment results in loss of the airframe. Depending on high
deployment speed, low altitude, rough terrain or high wind
conditions may result in severe injury or death of the occupants!
WARNING
If the aircraft enters an unusual attitude from which the recovery
is not expected before ground impact, immediate deployment
of EPS is required!
