CESSNA SECTION 8
MODEL 162 AIRPLANE HANDLING, SERVICE
GARMIN G300 AND MAINTENANCE
U.S.
INTRODUCTION
This section contains factory recommended procedures for proper
ground handling and routine care and servicing of your airplane. It also
identifies certain inspection and maintenance requirements which must
be followed if your airplane is to retain that new airplane performance
and dependability. It is important to follow a planned schedule of
lubrication and preventive maintenance based on climatic and flying
conditions encountered in your local area.
Keep in touch with a Cessna Service Station and take advantage of
their knowledge and experience. Your Cessna Service Station knows
your airplane and how to maintain it, and will remind you when
lubrications and oil changes are necessary, as well as other seasonal
and periodic services.
The airplane should be regularly inspected and maintained in
accordance with information found in the airplane maintenance manual
and in company issued Service Bulletins, Safety Alerts and Service
Newsletters. All service bulletins pertaining to the airplane by serial
number should be accomplished and the airplane should receive
repetitive and required inspections. Modifications not approved by
Cessna may void warranties on the airplane since Cessna has no way
of knowing the full effect on the overall airplane. Operation of an
airplane that has been modified may be a risk to the occupants, and
operating procedures and performance data set forth in the POH may
no longer be considered accurate for the modified airplane.
