LIGHTING SYSTEMS

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Exterior lighting consists of navigation/strobe lights located on the wing
tips and a landing/taxi light located on the outboard left wing leading
edge.
All exterior lights are operated by switches found on the switch circuit
breaker panel assembly to the right of the PFD. Exterior lights are
grouped together in the LIGHTS section of the switch panel. To activate
the LDG (landing/taxi light), NAV, and STROBE light(s), place the
switch in the up position. Circuit breakers for the lights are found on the
lower portion of the switch circuit breaker panel assembly.

INTERIOR LIGHTING

Instrument panel, pedestal and interior lighting is provided by an
integral LED matrix light assembly mounted on the overhead cabin
structure. Individual LEDs are directed at various instrument panel
locations and both fuel quantity indicators for night and low-light
illumination. Airplanes equipped with the BRS parachute option will
also have a LED light directed at the parachute deployment handle.
The PANEL LIGHTS dimming knob, located on the right side of the
electrical system switch/CB panel, controls intensity of the overhead
LED matrix lighting, non-stabilized magnetic compass internal lighting
(if installed) and Garmin G300 displays when the G300 display setup
backlight intensity is configured in the AUTO mode.
Rotating the PANEL LIGHTS dimming knob full clockwise provides
maximum brightness while rotating the dimmer control knob
counterclockwise decreases light intensity from the highest level to off.
Power for the PANEL LIGHTS dimmer control is provided by the
secondary power circuit and protected by the SEC PWR circuit breaker.
