Position and Strobe Lights
Combined position and strobe lights (anti collision lights) are installed on both wing tips.
Each system is operated by a switch (POSITION, STROBE) located on the row of switches
on the instrument panel.
Flood Light
A two-dimensional light emitter is mounted above the instrument panel. It illuminates the
instrument panel as well as all levers, switches, etc. The flood light is switched on and
its brightness is adjusted by means of a rotary button (FLOOD) in the LH section of the
instrument panel.
Instrument Lighting
With a rotary button (INSTRUMENT) in the LH section of the instrument panel the internal
lighting of the instruments is switched on and its brightness is adjusted.
Pitot Heating
The Pitot probe, which provides measurement for the Pitot-static system, is electrically
heated. The heating is activated with a switch (PITOT HEAT) located on the row of
switches on the instrument panel. The temperature is automatically kept constant by
means of a thermal switch on the Pitot probe, and as an additional safety measure a
thermal fuse is built in. If this thermal fuse is activated, the Pitot heating can no longer
be switched on, and the PITOT HT fail will be displayed. In this case the system should
be serviced. The PITOT HT OFF is on if the Pitot heating is switched off.
