A.
Location
CAUTION:
PLACING THE BUZZER IN THE COCKPIT IS NOT RECOMMENDED DUE TO THE
POTENTIAL FOR DISTRACTION. THE BUZZER PRODUCES A LOUD, SIREN-TYPE SOUND
WHEN THE ELT IS ACTIVATED. SINCE THE BUZZER OPERATES IN TANDEM WITH THE
COCKPIT LED, IT WOULD ONLY SERVE AS A REDUNDANT WARNING INDICATOR IN THE
COCKPIT.
1)
Select a suitable location for the buzzer.
NOTE: The buzzer may be located anywhere in the aircraft; however, the recommended location
is near the ELT, as the buzzer is loud enough to be heard outside the aircraft when the
engine(s) is not running. When the engine(s) is running, the LED on the cockpit remote
switch assembly will warn the pilot the ELT is active.
