SECTION 3 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES CESSNA FAA APPROVED MODEL 182T FORCED LANDINGS If all attempts to restart the engine fail and a forced landing is imminent, select a suitable field and prepare for the landing as discussed under the Emergency Landing Without Engine Power checklist.
Page 73: Fires
CESSNA SECTION 3 -EMERGENCY PROCEDURES MODEL 182T FAA APPROVED At flare out, the nose down moment resulting from power reduc- tion is an adverse factor and the airplane may hit on the nose wheel. Consequently, at flare out, the elevator trim control should be adjusted toward the full nose up position and the power adjusted so that the airplane will rotate to the horizontal attitude for touchdown.
Page 74: Emergency Descent Through Clouds
SECTION 3 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES CESSNA FAA APPROVED MODEL 182T 4. If necessary, adjust heading primarily with skidding motions rather than rolling motions so that the compass will read more accurately. 5. Maintain altitude and airspeed by cautious application of elevator control.

Page 76: Spins
SECTION 3 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES CESSNA FAA APPROVED MODEL 182T SPINS Intentional spins are prohibited in this airplane, but should an inadvertent spin occur, the following recovery procedure should be used: 1. RETARD THROTTLE TO IDLE POSITION. 2. PLACE AILERONS IN NEUTRAL POSITION.
Page 77: Magneto Malfunction
CESSNA SECTION 3 -EMERGENCY PROCEDURES MODEL 182T FAA APPROVED MAGNETO MALFUNCTION A sudden engine roughness or misfiring is usually evidence of magneto problems. Switching from BOTH to either L or R ignition switch position will identify which magneto is malfunctioning. Select different power settings and enrichen the mixture to determine if continued operation on BOTH magnetos is practicable.
Page 78: Electrical Power Supply System Malfunctions
SECTION 3 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES CESSNA FAA APPROVED MODEL 182T ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS Malfunctions in the electrical power supply system can be detected by periodic monitoring of the ammeter and low voltage annunciator (VOLTS); however, the cause of these malfunctions is usually difficult to determine.

SECTION 4 - NORMAL PROCEDURES CESSNA FAA APPROVED MODEL 182T AMPLIFIED NORMAL PROCEDURES PREFLIGHT INSPECTION The Preflight Inspection, described in Figure 4-1 and adjacent checklist, is required prior to each flight. If the airplane has been in extended storage, has had recent major maintenance, or has been operated from marginal airports, a more extensive exterior inspection is recommended.
Page 99: Starting Engine
CESSNA SECTION 4 - NORMAL PROCEDURES MODEL 182T FAA APPROVED If the airplane has been operated from muddy fields or in snow or slush, check the main and nose gear wheel fairings for obstructions and cleanliness. Operation from a gravel or cinder field will require extra attention to propeller tips and abrasion on leading edges of the horizontal tail.
Page 100: Taxiing
SECTION 4 - NORMAL PROCEDURES CESSNA FAA APPROVED MODEL 182T Should the engine tend to die after starting, turn on the auxiliary fuel pump temporarily and adjust the throttle and/or mixture as necessary to keep the engine running.

SECTION 4 - NORMAL PROCEDURES CESSNA FAA APPROVED MODEL 182T CROSSWIND LANDING When landing in a strong crosswind, use the minimum flap setting required for the field length. Although the crab or combination method of drift correction may be used, the wing low method gives the best control.
Page 111: Starting
CESSNA SECTION 4 - NORMAL PROCEDURES MODEL 182T FAA APPROVED If snow or slush covers the takeoff surface, allowance must be made for takeoff distances which will be increasingly extended as the snow or slush depth increases. The depth and consistency of this cover can, in fact, prevent takeoff in many instances.

SECTION 7 CESSNA AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION MODEL 182T NOTE Accidental opening of a cabin door in flight due to improper closing does not constitute a need to land the airplane. The best procedure is to set up the airplane in a trimmed condition at approximately 80 KIAS, momentarily shove the door outward slightly, and forcefully close and lock the door.
Page 193: Engine
CESSNA SECTION 7 MODEL 182T AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION ENGINE The airplane is powered by a horizontally opposed, six cylinder, overhead valve, air cooled, fuel injected engine with a wet sump lubrication system. The engine is a Lycoming Model IO-540-AB1A5 and is rated at 230 horsepower at 2400 RPM.
Page 194: Engine Instruments
SECTION 7 CESSNA AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION MODEL 182T ENGINE INSTRUMENTS Engine operation is monitored by the following instruments: oil pressure/oil temperature indicator, exhaust temperature indicator (EGT)/cylinder head temperature indicator (CHT), manifold pressure gauge/fuel flow indicator and tachometer. The oil pressure/oil temperature indicator unit is located on the lower left side of the instrument panel.
Page 195 CESSNA SECTION 7 MODEL 182T AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION The EGT/CHT indicator, located on the left side of the instrument panel, is activated by electrical signals originating in the engine compartment. Markings for the exhaust gas temperature portion of the indicator are in 25°F increments, with no range markings or red lines.
Page 196: New Engine Break In And Operation
SECTION 7 CESSNA AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION MODEL 182T The manifold pressure gauge is part of the manifold pressure gauge/fuel flow indicator located on the left side of the pilot's instrument panel. The gauge is direct reading and indicates induction air manifold pressure in inches of mercury. It has a normal operating range (green arc) of 15 to 23 In.
Page 197: Ignition And Starter System
CESSNA SECTION 7 MODEL 182T AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION An oil dipstick/filler tube is located on the upper left side of the engine case. The dipstick and oil filler tube are accessed through a door located on the left center portion of the upper engine cowling.
Page 198: Fuel Injection System
SECTION 7 CESSNA AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION MODEL 182T EXHAUST SYSTEM Exhaust gas from each cylinder passes through riser assemblies to a muffler and tailpipe. Outside air is pulled in around shrouds which are constructed around the outside of the mufflers to form heating chambers which supply heat to the cabin.
Page 199: Propeller
CESSNA SECTION 7 MODEL 182T AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION The pedestal is labeled OPEN, COWL FLAPS, CLOSED. Before starting the engine, takeoff and high power operation, the cowl flap control should be placed in the OPEN position for maximum cooling This is accomplished by moving the control to the right to clear a detent, then moving the control up to the OPEN position.
Page 200: Fuel System
SECTION 7 CESSNA AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION MODEL 182T FUEL SYSTEM The airplane fuel system (see Figure 7-6) consists of two vented integral fuel tanks (one tank in each wing), two fuel manifolds (one in each aft doorpost), a dual stack, four-position selector valve, an electrically-driven auxiliary fuel pump, and a fuel strainer.

Page 226: Static Dischargers
SECTION 7 CESSNA AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION MODEL 182T STATIC DISCHARGERS Static wicks (static dischargers) are installed at various points throughout the airframe to reduce interference from precipitation static. Under some severe static conditions, loss of radio signals is possible even with static dischargers installed. Whenever possible, avoid known severe precipitation areas to prevent loss of dependable radio signals.
