sity for the digital
readouts
only.
Clockwise rotation of
the
control knob
will
provide
norm&l
variable light intensity for nighttime
operation.
The
control
pedestal has two integral lights. Pedestal light
intensity
is
controlled by
the large
(outer)
control knob ofthe concentric control knobs
labeled EL PANEL,
ENG-RADIO.
Map lighting
is
provided
by overhead console map lights and
an
antiglare shield
mounted
map light. The
airplane
may
also be equipped
with a control
wheel
map
light. The
overhead console map
liglrts
operate
in
conjunction
with
instrurnent
panel
flood lighting and consist of two
openings
just
aft of
tbe red'instruqrent
panel
flood lights. The
map
light
openings' have
sliding
sovers controlled by small
round
knobs
which
uncover the openings
when
moved toward
each
other.
The
covers should
be
kept
closed
unless
the map lights are required. A map
light
and
toggle
switch, mounted
in
front of the
pilot
on the underside of the antiglare
shield, is used
for illuminating
approach
plates
or other charts when
using
a control
wheel mounted
approach
plate
holder. The switch is labeled MAP
LIGHT,
ON, OFF
and
light intensity is
controlled,by
the FLOOD
(large
outer) control,knoS.
1'lts
pilot's
control wheel map light
(if
installed)
illuminates
the
lower
portion
of the cabin in front of the
pilot,
and is used
for
checking maps
and
other flight
data
during night operation. The
light is
utilized by turning
on
tbe,NAV light
switch,
and adjusting light intensity
with
the
rheostat control'knob
on the bottom of the control wheel.
The airplane
is equipped
with a dome light
aft of the overhead console.
The light is operated
by a slide-type
switch,
aft
of
the light
lens,
which
turns the
light on when
moved
to the right.
The
most
lrobable
cause of a light failure is a burned
out
bulb;
however,
in the event
any,of the lighting systems fail,to illuminate when
turned on, check
the
appropriate circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker
has
opened
(white
button
popped
out), and there is no
obvious
indieation of a
short circuit
(smoke
or odor); turn off the light switch of the affected
lights,
reset the breaker, and
turn tbe switch on again. If the breaker
opens
again,
do not reset it.
