3.3.5
Carburettor Icing
If Carburettor icing is suspected:
1.
Throttle .......................................................FULL
2.
CARB HEAT...............................................FULL ON
NOTE
Carburettor heat may be used at any power setting, but will result in a slight power loss. When
icing is eliminated, return CARB HEAT to OFF. Carburettor heat should not be used for take-offs.
Maintain carburettor heat in ON position for a minimum of 1 minute to allow all ice to melt.
Carburettor heat may be used on the ground except during take-off.
CAUTION
Do not use partial carburettor heat as this may exacerbate ice accretion.
3.3.6
Fuel Low Level Warning Light Illuminates
(where equipped)
If fuel low level warning light illuminates:
1.
Throttle .......................................................Reduce to approx 2400RPM
2.
Fuel gauges................................................Check level. Fly aircraft with the wing
with the most fuel above the other.
3.
Precautionary Landing................................As soon as safe
NOTE
Refer to amplified procedures below.
3.3.7
Landing With a Flat Main Tyre
1.
Landing Area ..............................................SUITABLE
2.
Approach....................................................NORMAL
3.
Wing Flaps .................................................FULL DOWN
4.
Touchdown.................................................GOOD TYRE(S) FIRST, hold aircraft
off flat tyre as long as possible with
aileron and/or elevator control
5.
Ignition........................................................OFF
6.
Fuel Shutoff Valve ......................................OFF
7.
Master Switch.............................................OFF
3.3.8
Inadvertent Icing Encounter
Flight into known icing conditions is prohibited. If icing is inadvertently encountered,
change level or turn back to obtain an outside air temperature less conducive to icing.
3.3.9
Electrical Power Supply System Malfunctions
Alternator Failure
1.
Non-essential electrical equipment .............OFF
2.
Land ...........................................................AS SOON AS PRACTICAL
Alternator failure is indicated by the illumination of the “CHG FAIL” light on the instrument panel.
While the Jabiru 2200 engine does not require external power to run, power consumption by the
radio, transponder and other electrical systems will eventually discharge the battery.
