4.7.3.2 Fuel-Management
The integral-fuel-tanks are located in the inner-wing-section with automatic fuel-
extraction. The only way to control the fuel-extraction is by using the fuel-shut-
off-valve to interrupt the fuel-flow or the auxiliary-fuel-pump (which assists the
main-fuel-pump). The correct extraction of fuel can be monitored with the two
fuel-gauges and one low-fuel-caution-light.
The fuel-tank-system consists of one main-tank with a feeder-compartment in
the right wing. An auxiliary-tank in the left wing may be installed optionally.
If the engine is running, the feeder-compartment is filled automatically from the
main-tank by a pump. If the feeder-compartment is completely filled, then fuel
flows back into the right main-tank. The fuel-transfer-pump of the optional
auxiliary-tank also transports fuel into the feeder-compartment. Fuel is only
taken from the optional auxiliary-tank if less than 2/3 - 3/4 of the maximum
amount of fuel remains in the main tank and the fuel-transfer-pump is switched
ON.
