7.21 Fire Extinguisher System
The fire-extinguisher system is an independent system without electrical control. It is based
on a portable Halon-filled extinguisher mounted in such a way that it can propel
extinguishing agent through pipes into the equipment compartment and engine bay, or by
means of a quick-release clip can be lifted free and used as a hand-held extinguisher.
Use of the Fire extinguisher system is described in Section 3.6 Smoke and Fire.
Instructions are shown on the placards adjacent to and on the fire extinguisher canister.
