step light and courtesy lights, both doors must be closed and
latched. The lights will illuminate when either door or both

the switches for the anticollision lights, nose gear taxi light, and
wing ice light are grouped on the pilot's subpanel. The landing
lights in the leading edge of each wing tip or on the front lower
section of each engine cowling are operated by separate
switches. For longer lamp service life, use the landing lights
only when necessary. Avoid prolonged operation during
ground maneuvering which could cause overheating. The
nose gear taxi light should be used during ground operation.
Particularly at night, reflections from anti-
collision lights on clouds, dense haze or
dust can produce optical illusions and
intense vertigo. Such lights, when installed,
should be turned off before entering an
overcast; their use may not be advisable
under instrument or limited VFR conditions.

systems and their associated controls. An optional cooling sys-
tem is also available.
