ICE DETECTION FAIL

-
failure of the ice detector. The system shall be reverted in MAN mode by the
pilot,
-
failure of the DE ICE SYSTEM panel printed circuit. The system is automatically
reverted in MAN mode.
Wing and empennage deicing
A pneumatic deice system assures protection of wing leading edges, horizontal
stabilizer, elevator horns and vertical stabilizer. The system automatically cycles
when AIRFRAME DE ICE system is activated either manually or automatically.
The 67-second cycle breaks down in two inflation cycles :
-
a first cycle induces inflation of leading edges deicer boots in wing central and
outboard sections.
-
the second cycle induces inflation of leading edges deicer boots in horizontal
stabilizer, elevator horns, vertical stabilizer and wing inboard section,
The table hereafter gives the CAS messages and the status light colors
corresponding to the state of the system.
