Storage
• Note •
During long periods of non-use, the porous panel membranes
may dry out which could cause uneven fluid flow during
subsequent operation. Perform the Pre-Flight Inspection every
30 days to keep porous panel membranes wetted.
To prepare the Ice Protection System for flyable storage, fill the de-
icing fluid tank and operate the system on MAXIMUM to ensure all air
is completely purged from components and plumbing. Re-fill the de-
icing fluid tank after purging.
Servicing
De-Icing Fluid Tank
• Caution •
Use only approved de-icing fluid. See Section 2, Limitations
The de-icing fluid tank is serviced through a filler located on the LH
side of the fuselage, just forward of the baggage door or Serials with
G3 Wing on the upper LH wing. To prevent de-icing fluid
contamination, maintain a clean, dedicated measuring container and
ensure mouth of fluid container is clean before dispensing. Secure the
filler cap immediately after filling.
Porous Panels
• Caution •
Certain solvents may damage the panel membrane. Use only
isopropyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, or industrial methylated spirit
to clean panels.
Do not wax leading edge porous panels.
Periodically clean the porous panels with soap and water using a
clean, lint-free cloth. Isopropyl Alcohol may be used to remove oil or
grease.
