Engine fire in flight
1. Shut fuel valve OFF.
2. Fuel pump OFF (if applicable - see chapter 7).
3. Set full power (throttle lever in full forward position) until engine stops.
4. Set magnetos to OFF.
5. Keep avionics ON and master ON as required, on final approach set both OFF (in-
struments will switch off).
6. Set ventilation for adequate breathing. Keep in mind that oxygen intensifies fire.
7. Perform side-slip (crab) maneuver in direction opposite the fire.
8. Perform emergency landing out procedure.
Smoke in cockpit
Smoke in cockpit is usually a consequence of electrical wiring malfunction. As it is most definitely
caused by a short circuit it is required that the pilot reacts as follows:
1. Fuel pump switch OFF (if applicable - see chapter 7)
2. Avionics OFF
WARNING!
Setting Avionics switch off will switch off all instruments but enables unob-
structed engine operation while at the same time disconnects all other electrical devices from
the circuit. Verify that the 12 V socket is OFF as well.
2. Disconnect the battery from the circuit (pull battery disconnection ring on the instrument
panel’s switch column).
3. Land as soon as possible.
In case you have trouble breathing or the visibility out of the cockpit has degraded severely due to the
smoke, open the cabin door and leave it hanging freely. Flying with the door open, do not, under any
circumstances exceed 110 km/h / 60 kts.
Carburetor icing
First noticeable signs of carburetor icing are rough engine noises and gradual loss of power.
Carburetor icing may occur even at temperatures as high as 10°C (50°F), provided the air humidity is
increased.
Should you be suspecting carburetor icing to take place, descend immediately into warmer and/
or less humid air!
In case of complete power loss perform emergency landing out procedure.
Electrical system failure
The engine will continue to function due to the onboard alternator and battery. In case of bat-
tery failure, be aware that the engine can keep running, however a re-start will not be possible. In
event of alternator failure, the battery will support the onboard avionics. In event of double power
source failure, flight instruments will not be available.
