Interior lighting consists of access, cabin, instrument panel, instruments, baggage compartment and emergency
lighting.
Access lighting
Access lighting consists of two floodlights located on the ceiling upholstering (one at the level of the access door,
the other at the level of the storage cabinet) and the L.H. dome light of baggage compartment. "ACCESS"
push-button on "INT LIGHTS" panel and the push-button located on access door rear frame control these 3 lights
via a delayed breaker.
If the crash lever is down, access lighting is automatically cut out after 3 minutes.
If the crash lever is up, there is no access lighting automatic cut out.
Cabin lighting
Cabin lighting consists of two swiveling floodlights for front seats, six individual floodlights for rear passenger seats
and the baggage compartment R.H. dome light. Each floodlight is controlled by a push-button located near. The
floodlight above the table is controlled by two switches which are two-way type switches. The pilot can switch off
the cabin floodlights and the baggage compartment dome light with the "CABIN" switch.
Instrument panel lighting
Instrument panel lighting is controlled by the "PANEL" rheostat located on "INT LIGHTS" panel. This lighting
consists of visor lighting tubes and a led lighting for the pedestal.
Circuit breaker panel lighting
Circuit breaker panel lighting is controlled by a switch located on the instrument panel near the pilot's control wheel.
Emergency lighting
Emergency lighting consists of two swiveling floodlights located on both sides of the cockpit overhead panel above
front seats. It illuminates instrument panel assembly in case of visor lighting tubes and / or instrument integrated
lighting failure.
A rheostat located on the cockpit overhead panel controls emergency lighting operation and intensity. Forward
rotation of control knob allows changing from OFF position to minimum lighting then increasing lighting to
