Fuel Tank Probe Re-Calibration
The fuel tank quantity probes are calibrated at the aircraft factory to ensure their measuring accuracy.
Should either fuel tank probe fail and require replacement, the new probe(s) must be calibrated by
performing the following procedure.
1.
Level the aircraft, following instructions in the DA40 Airplane Maintenance Manual.
2.
Fill each fuel tank with 0.5 gallons fuel (unusable fuel, refer to DA 40 AFM). Use proper
precautions when handling fuel. Ensure that the aircraft is grounded correctly and that there is
adequate ventilation.
Each time the G1000 system is powered down, it is imperative that the system be
allowed to stabilize for
AT LEAST
three minutes before proceeding with the procedure.
3.
Start the PFD and MFD in Configuration Mode.
4.
On the PFD, go to the GEA Page Group (this procedure must be performed using only the PFD).
5.
Select the Fuel Calibration page (3rd page in GEA group), shown below:
