Ice Detection System
▲
CAUTION
▲
Ice Detection System is only an advisory system. Pilot has the primary
responsibility for detecting icing conditions through visual cues and
activating ice protection systems.
▲
The system is composed of one ice detetor providing an ice signal to the system when
and as long as ice is detected on the sensing element.
The default mode of the system is AUTO with all the protection systems deactivated -
see figure 7.14.1.
Figure 7.14.1 - DE ICE SYSTEM panel - AUTO mode with no ice detected
