PASSENGER ENTRY DOOR (Passenger Version Only)
1
The entry door for passengers consists of an upper and lower section.
When opened, the upper section swings upward and the lower section
drops down providing integral steps to aid in boarding or exiting the
airplane. The upper door section incorporates a conventional exterior
door handle with a separate key-operated lock, a pushbutton exterior
door release, and an interior door handle which snaps into a locking
receptacle. The lower door section features a flush handle which is
accessible from either inside or outside the airplane. This handle is
designed so that when the upper door is closed, the handle cannot be
rotated to the OPEN position. The lower door also contains integral
door support cables and a door-lowering device. A cabin door open
warning system is provided as a safety feature so that if the upper door
is not properly latched, a red light, labeled DOOR WARNING located
on the annunciator panel, illuminates to alert the pilot.
To enter the airplane through the passenger entry door, depress the
exterior pushbutton door release, rotate the exterior door handle on the
upper door section counterclockwise to the open position, and raise the
I
door section to the overcenter position (refer to Section
2,
Placards).
Following this action, the automatic door lift with the telescoping gas
spring raises the door to the full up position. When the upper section is
open, release the lower section by pulling up on the inside door handle
and rotating the handle to the OPEN position. Lower the door section
until it is supported by the integral support cables. The door steps
deploy automatically from their stowed positions.
WARNING
THE OUTSIDE PROXIMITY OF THE LOWER DOOR
SECTION MUST BE CLEAR BEFORE OPENING THE
DOOR
