FUEL CONTAMINATION (Continued)
To further reduce the possibility of contaminated fuel, routine
maintenance of the fuel system must be performed in accordance with
the Airplane Maintenance Manual. Only the proper fuel, as
recommended in this POH/AFM, should be used, and fuel additives
must not be used unless approved by Cessna and the Federal Aviation
Administration.
• It is the pilot’s responsibility to make sure that
the airplane’s fuel supply is clean before flight.
• Do not fly the airplane with contaminated or
unapproved fuel.
• Any traces of solid contaminants such as rust,
sand, pebbles, dirt, microbes and bacterial
growth or liquid contamination resulting from
water, improper fuel type, or additives that are
not compatible with the fuel or fuel system
components must be considered hazardous.
• Carefully sample fuel from all fuel drain locations
during each preflight inspection and after every
refueling.
