REVISIONS (REISSUES) This manual is subject to revisions (reissues) which will be automati- cally distributed to all holders of the manual. It is the responsibility of the operator to assure that the revisions (reissues) are incorporated into the manual upon receipt. At the beginning of the manual there is the “List of Revisions” table that shows all pages of the manual which have been revised as well as number and approval reference of each revision. REVISION SYMBOL Revised text is indicated by a black vertical line on the outer margin of the page, adjacent to the affected text and the revision is printed in the lower inner margin. The revision symbol identifies the addition of new information, a change of procedure, the correction of an error, or a rewording of the previous information. TEMPORARY REVISIONS Temporary Revisions are issued when immediate data is to be included in the manual. The Temporary Revision data can add to or cancel the initial data in the manual. They are numbered progressively for each section of the manual. Temporary Revision pages are not written in the “List of Effective Pages”. A complete list of active and inactive Temporary Revision are written in the “List of Temporary Revisions” page.Printed copy not contractually maintained by Leonardo Helicopters Introduction AW119 MKII RFM Document No. 109G0040A017 Page iv 11-06-07 TERMINOLOGY WARNINGS, CAUTIONS AND NOTES WARNING An operating procedure, practice, etc., which, if not correctly followed, could result in personal injury or loss of life. CAUTION An operating procedure, practice, etc., which, if not strictly observed, could result in damage to, or destruction of, equipment. Note An operating procedure, condition, etc., which is essential to highlight. USE OF PROCEDURAL WORDS The concept of procedural word usage and intended meaning which has been adhered to in preparing this RFM is as follows: “Shall” or “Must” have been used only when application of a proce- dure is mandatory. “Should” has been used only when application of a procedure is rec- ommended. “May” has been used only when application of a procedure is optional. “Will” has been used only to indicate futurity, never to indicate a man- datory procedure. “Condition” has been used to determine if the item under examination presents external damage which could jeopardize its safe operation. “Secured” has been used to determine if the item under examination is correctly locked; mainly referred to doors and disconnectable items. “Security” has been used to determine if the item under examination is correctly positioned and installed.

(**) Use of TS-1 fuel complying with GOST 10227-86 specification, but not complying with Decree 118, is prohibited. (***) Use of Jet B fuel, alone or mixed with other approved fuels, is limited to operation with ambient temperature up to +15 °C. (****) Use of No. 3 Jet Fuel with additives T1502 or T1602 is prohibited. Note Any mixture of approved fuels may be used. Note For operation below 4 °C the use of anti-ice additive is author- ized but not mandatory since the engine oil system is provided with an oil-to-fuel heater where, depending upon the tempera- ture of the fuel, the engine oil is utilized to preheat the fuel. For additive requirements and blending procedures refer to EMM. Table 1-1.
