The airplane is equipped with three strobe and navigation lights, two landing lights,
two taxi lights, two recognition lights and a wing leading edge icing inspection light.
Landing lights
The landing lights are embedded in the winglets' leading edge. These lights are
controlled by setting a switch located on upper panel to LDG.
The Pulse lite system, if installed, allows the pilot to have the landing lights flash
continuously, making the airplane more visible to the control tower and to nearby
aircraft.
Taxi lights
The taxi lights are embedded in the winglets' leading edge. These lights are controlled
by setting a switch located on upper panel to TAXI.
Navigation lights and strobe lights
Two strobe and navigation lights are installed in the winglets and one on the tail cone.
They are controlled by NAV and STROBE switches located on upper panel.

NOTE
●
At night, do not use anti-collision lights in fog, clouds, or mist - as reflection of
the flashing lights may lead to dizziness and disorientation.
●
Recognition lights
Recognition lights are embedded in the winglets.
They are automatically switched on when the airplane is on ground.
Leading edge icing inspection light
The leading edge icing inspection light is installed on the left side of the fuselage and
illuminates the wing leading edge. This light is controlled by the ICE LIGHT switch
installed on DE ICE SYSTEM panel - see figure 7.13.1.
