OPERATING
CHECKLIST
One
of
the
first
steJ'S
in
obtain:.ng
the
utmost
performance,
service,
and
flying
enj:;Jyment from ycrur
Cessna
is
to
familiarize
yourself
w.th
your
aircraft's
equipme1t,
systems,
and
controls.
This
can
best
be
done
by
reviewing
this
equipment
while
sitting
in
tbe
aircraft.
Those
items
whJse
function
and
operation
are
not obvious
::..re
covered
in
Section II.
Section I lists,
in
PJot's
Checklist
form,
the
steps
necessary
to
op-
er.de
your
aircraft
efficiently
and
safely.
It
is
not a
checklist
in
its
true
form
as
it
is
~onsiderably
longer,
but
it
does
cover
briefly
all
of
the
points
that
you
should
know
for a typical
fight.
A
more
convelient
plastic
en-
closed
checkl,st,
stowed
in
the
rna~
compartn,ent,
is
avllilable
for
quickly
checking
that
all
import~
procedures
have
Men
performed.
Since
vigi-
lance
for
other
traffic
is
so
important
in
crowded
termiml
areas,
it
is
important
that preoecupEtion
with
checklists
00
avoided
in
flight.
Proce-
dures
should he carefuU:r
memorized
and
performed
from
memory.
Then
the
checklist
shoold
be
quickly
scanned
to
ellS'lre
tbat
nothing
has
been
missed.
The
flight
and
operational
characteristics
of

The
valve
extends
through
the
l<twer

of
the

just
out:>eard of
tiE
cabin

cup
stored
in

is
m~ed
to

ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM.
ELectrical
energy
is
$Upplied
by a 14-volt,
direct-current
system
powered
by
an
er.gi_ne-driven
alternator
(see
figure
2.-3). The 12-v{llt
battery
is
located
aft
of
the
rear
cabin
Wall.
Power
is
supplied
to
aU
electrical
circuits
through
a
split
bus
bar,
one sJde cQfrt.aining
electronic
system

Both

of
the
bus
are
on
at
all
times
except whet:
either
an
ex-
ternal
power
source
is
connected
or
tbe
starter
switch
is
turned
on; then a
power
contactor
is
automatlcally
activated
to
open
the
circuit
to
the
elec-
tronic
bus.
Isolating
