The Information Is presented to enable you to form, In advance, a definite plan of action for coping with the most probable emergency situations which could occur In the operation of your arrplane. As It Is not possible to have a procedure for all types of emergencies that may occur, It Is the pilot's responsibility to use sound judgement based ·On experience and knowledge of the aircraft to determine the best course of action . Therefore, It Is considered mandatorythatthe pilot read the entire manual, especially this section before night. When applicable, emergency procedures associated with optional equipment such as Autopilots are Included In SECTION IX.

I POWER LOSS • PRIM.ARY ENGINE IN.DUCnON AIR SYSTEM BLOCKAGE Blockage of the primary engine Induction a r system may be exeerienced as a result of Hying in cloud or heavy snow with cold outside air temperatures (0°C or below) . At these temperatures, very small water droplets or solid Ice crystals In the air maY. enter the primary engine Induction inlet in cowl opening and lravellnslde Inlet duot to the Induction air filter. Ice particles or water droplets may collect and freeze on the air filter causing partial or total blockage of the primary engine induction system. If primary induction air system blockage occurs, the alternate engine Induction air system will automallcally open, supplying engine with an alternate air source drawn from inside the cowling rather than through the air filter. The alternate air system can also be manually opened at any time by pulling the control labeled ALTERNATE AIR Automatic or manual activation of the aile mate Induction system Is displayed In the cockpit by the illumination of the ALTAIR light In the main annunciator panel. Wlen operating on the alternate air system , ava.ilable engine power will be less for a given propeller RPM compared to the primary Induction air system. This Is due to loss of ram effect and Induction of warmer inlet air. The following checklist should be used if a partial power loss due to primary induction air system blockage is experienced : Alternate Air . . . . .

An engine driven fuel pump failure Is probable when engine will only operate with HIGH BOOST pump ON . Operation of engine with a failed engine driven fuel pump and auxilllary fuel pump HIGH BOOST ON will require smooth operation of engine controls and cor- responding mixture change when throttle Is repositioned or engine speed Is changed.

I !ea.st 3,000 feet per minute can be obtained in two different configurations: (1) IMth landing gear and flaps retracted, an airspeed of 196 KIAS will be required for maximum ra te of descent. (2) Wth the landing gear extended and Haps retracted an airspeed of 165 KIAS will also give approximately the same rate of descent. At 165 KIAS ·and the gear extended, the Iangle of descent will be greater, thus resulting In less horizontal distance traveled than a descent at 196 KIAS.
