(2.) Instrument indirect fights. Three lights
are mounted in the glareshield overhang along the
top edge of the instrument panel and provide overall
instrument panel illumination. The circuit is protected
by a 5-ampere circuit breaker placarded INST
INDIRECT on the overhead circuit breaker panel (fig.
2-26). Control is provided by a rheostat switch
placarded INST INDIRECT LIGHTS - OFF - BRT on
the overhead control panel (fig. 2-12). Turning the
control clockwise from OFF turns the lights on and
increases their brilliance.
(3.) Engine
instrument
lights.
Each
individual engine instrument contains internal lamps for
illumination. The circuit is protected by a 7 l/2- ampere
circuit breaker placarded FLT INST on the overhead
circuit breaker panel (fig. 2-26). Control is provided by
a rheostat switch placarded ENGINE INST LIGHTS
OFF BRT on the overhead control panel (fig. 2-12).
Turning the control clockwise from OFF turns the lights
on and increases their brilliance.
NOTE
The floodlight is connected to the hot battery
bus and will not be turned off by the battery
switch; therefore, it must be turned OFF when
the aircraft is shutdown to prevent discharging
the battery.
(4.) Flood light. A single overhead flood
light is installed. It provides overall illumination of the
entire cockpit area. The circuit is protected by a
5-ampere circuit breaker mounted beneath the battery
and connected to the emergency battery bus. Control is
provided by a rheostat switch placarded - OVERHEAD
FLOODLIGHT-OFF-BRT on the overhead control
panel (fig. 2-12). Turning the control clockwise from
OFF turns the light on and increases its brilliance.
(5.) Overhead panel lights. Lamps on the
overhead circuit breaker panel, control panel, and fuel
management panel are protected by a 7 1/2-ampere
circuit breaker placarded OVHD on the overhead circuit
breaker panel (fig. 2-26). Control is provided by a
rheostat switch placarded OVERHEAD PANEL
LIGHTS - OFF - BRT on the overhead control panel
(fig. 2-12). Turning the control clockwise from OFF
turns the lights on and increases their brilliance.
(6.) Subpanel and console lights. Lights on
the pilots and copilots subpanels, console edge lighted
panels, mission control panel, and pedestal extension
panels are protected by a 7 l/2-ampere circuit breaker
placarded SUBPNL & CONSOLE on the overhead
circuit breaker panel (fig. 2-26). Control is provided by
two rheostat switches placarded SUBPANEL or
CONSOLE LIGHTS - OFF - BRT on the overhead
control panel (fig. 2- 12). Turning the control clockwise
from OFF turns the lights on and increases their
brilliance.
(7.) Outside air temperature light. Two post
lights are mounted adjacent to the outside air
temperature gage on the left cockpit sidewall trim panel.
The circuit is protected by a 71/2-ampere circuit breaker
placarded FLT INST on the overhead circuit breaker
panel (fig. 2-26). Control is provided by a pushbutton
switch adjacent to the gage. No intensity control is
provided.
b. Cabin Lighting.
(1.) Threshold and spar cover lights. A
threshold light is installed just above floor level on the
left side of the cabin just inside the cabin door. A spar
cover light is installed on the left side of the sunken
aisle immediately aft of the main spar cover. Both
circuits are protected by a 5-ampere circuit breaker
mounted beneath the battery and connected to the
emergency battery bus. Both lights are controlled by the
switch mounted adjacent to the threshold light. If the
lights are illuminated, closing the cabin door will
automatically extinguish them.
(2.) Cabin aisle lights. Three cabin aisle
lights are installed in the cabin aisle. Control is provided
by the CABIN LIGHTS switch on the right subpanel.
Control is provided by the CABIN LIGHT switch on
the right subpanel.
(3.)
Cabin spot lights. A spot light is mounted
to each cabin aisle light. Each spot light is individually
controlled by a rheostat placarded OFF-ON-BRT on the
back of the light. There is a momentary ON switch in
the center of the rheostat. Each light is capable of
producing a red or white spotlight by turning the
selector on the front of the light. To remove the light
from the stationary position, pull down on the light. The
light is connected to the light housing by an 11 inch
coiled cord that extends to approximately 50 inches.
(4.) Cabin door latching mechanism light. A
light is provided to check the cabin door latching
mechanism. It is controlled by a red pushbutton switch
located adjacent to the round observation window,
which is just above the second step.
2-78. EMERGENCY LIGHTING.
a. Description. An independent battery operated
lighting system is installed. The system is actuated
automatically by shock, such as a forced landing. It
provides adequate lighting inside and outside the
fuselage to permit the crew to read instruction
