3.10.4 SUSPICION OF CABIN CARBON MONOXIDE CONTAMINATION
1. Cabin heat - close.
2. Fresh air venting - open
3. In level flight you could slightly or totally open the canopy to allow fresh air
in (recommended max airspeed 100 kts)
4. Land as soon as practical (with canopy closed).
CAUTION
Carbon Monoxide is clear and does not have any particular smell. It is
therefore not possible to detect it, except if aircraft is equipped with a CO
detector indicating possible contamination.
In case of other abnormal smell or fumes in cabin, apply the same procedure
NOTE
Flying with canopy open is forbidden in normal condition. In case of
emergency, canopy can be open up to 100 kts. When opening, higher pull
force than usual is required to slide backward the first 20 cm. Once open, it
can be easily maintained in position and closed afterward.
