SECTION I. OPERATING CHECK LIST Make the following changes to the Check List in your Cessna Owner’s Manual. Starting Engine - Replace with list below. 1. Set mixture control to “FULL RICH” (full in). 2. Set propeller control for “HIGH RPM” (full in). 3. Turn master switch “ON”. 4. Auxiliary Fuel Pump -- PRIME. 5. Throttle -- ADVANCE for 8-10 GPH; then immediately RETARD to IDLE. 6. Auxiliary Fuel Pump -- OFF as throttle is retarded. 7. Turn ignition switch to “BOTH”. 8. Clear the propeller. 9. Ignition Switch – “START” (hold until engine fires, but not longer than 30

seconds). 10. Advance throttle slowly.

Note The engine should start in two to three revolutions. If it does not continue running, start again at step 3 above. If the engine still does not start, leave auxiliary fuel pump switch off, set mixture to idle cut-off, open throttle, and crank until engine fires or for approximately 15 seconds. If still unsuccessful, start again using the normal starting procedure after allowing the starter motor to cool.

11. Throttle -- ADJUST for 1000 RPM or less. 12. Oil Pressure -- CHECK. (10 PSI min. within 30 seconds at moderate

temperatures). 13. Starter -- CHECK DISENGAGED (if starter were to remain engaged, ammeter

would indicate full scale charge with engine running at 1000 RPM). 14. Avionics -- ON. 15. Navigation Lights and Flashing Beacon -- ON as required. Before Takeoff - Add before runup. Auxiliary Fuel Pump -- OFF.

Alternate Air - CHECK for RPM drop Fuel Shut OFF control – ON (full in)

SECTION I. OPERATING CHECK LIST (Cont’d) AMPLIFIED PROCEDURES Starting Engine Proper fuel management and throttle adjustments are the determining factors in securing an easy start from your continuous-flow fuel-injection engine. The procedure outlined in the checklist should be followed closely as it is effective under nearly all operating conditions, including hot and cold weather conditions. Slight variations from this procedure may be necessary at times to compensate for extreme conditions. Conventional full rich mixture and high RPM propeller settings are used for starting; the throttle, however, should be fully closed initially. When ready to start, advance the throttle half way, place the auxiliary fuel pump switch in the PRIME position until positive fuel flow is observed on the fuel flow indicator. Then promptly turn off the auxiliary fuel pump and return the throttle to the 1/2 inch open position. Rotate the ignition switch to the START position. Return the ignition switch to the both position when the engine starts and slowly retard the throttle to 1000 RPM or less. Engine starting in hot weather or with a hot engine is sometimes hampered by vapor formation in the fuel lines. To purge the vapor, move the mixture control to full rich, open the throttle 1 1/2 inches, and prime with the auxiliary fuel pump switch in the PRIME position until the fuel flow indicator reads 8-10 gal/hr. Then turn off the fuel pump switch and engage the starter. As the flooded mixture becomes progressively leaner, reaching a combustible mixture, the engine will start. If the engine tends to die, turn the auxiliary fuel pump switch momentarily to ON at appropriate intervals until the vapor is fully cleared and the engine runs smoothly. If prolonged cranking is necessary, allow the starter motor to cool at frequent intervals, since excessive heat may damage the armature. If oil pressure is not indicated within 30 seconds in normal temperatures and 60 seconds in cold temperatures, shut off engine and investigate the cause. Takeoff For maximum engine power, the mixture should be adjusted during the initial take off roll to the fuel flow corresponding to the field elevation. The power increase is significant above 3000 feet and this procedure always should be employed for field elevations greater than 5000 feet above sea level.

DOCUMENT NUMBER C180-520-APSFM4 Page 7 of 23 March 1, 2002

SECTION I. OPERATING CHECK LIST (Cont’d) Maximum Performance Climb The mixture should be leaned as shown by the 2700 RPM line on the fuel flow placard, located on the instrument panel or leaned for maximum power and smooth operation before takeoff. Engine Roughness During Climb or Cruise If engine roughness, fuel flow fluctuations or low fuel occur, turn Auxiliary Fuel Pump ON and manually lean to the following fuel flow schedule:

MIN. FUEL FLOWS AT FULL THROTTLE RPM SL 4000 8000 12000 2700 23 GPH 21 GPH 19 GPH 17 GPH 2850 24 GPH 22 GPH 20 GPH 18 GPH Manual leaning fuel flows for full throttle and 2550 RPM are 1 gph less than those shown on the schedule. Leaning With A Cessna Economy Mixture Indicator (EGT) Exhaust gas temperature (EGT) as shown on the optional Cessna Economy Mixture Indicator may be used as an aid for mixture leaning in cruising flight at 75% power or less. To adjust the mixture, using this indicator, lean to establish the peak EGT as a reference point and then enrichen the mixture by a desired increment based on data in the table below.

SECTION I. OPERATING CHECK LIST (Cont’d)

Continuous operation at peak EGT is authorized only at 65% power or less. This best economy mixture setting results in approximately 6% greater range accompanied by approximately 3 knots decrease in speed.

Note Operation on the lean side of peak EGT is not approved. When leaning the mixture, if a distinct peak is not obtained, use the corresponding maximum EGT as a reference point for enrichening the mixture to the desired cruise setting. Any change in altitude or power will require a recheck of the EGT indication.

SECTION II. DESCRIPTION AND OPERATING DETAILS (Cont’d) should become blocked, actuating the alternate air control will open the alternate air valve and draw unfiltered air from inside the cowl area. Fuel Injection System The engine is equipped with a fuel injection system. The system is comprised of an engine-driven fuel pump, fuel/air control unit, fuel manifold, fuel flow indicator, and air bleed type injector nozzles. Fuel is delivered by the engine-driven fuel pump to the fuel/air control unit on the bottom of the engine. The fuel/air control unit correctly proportions the fuel flow to the induction air flow. After passing through the control unit, induction air is delivered to the cylinders through intake manifold tubes, and metered fuel is delivered to a fuel manifold. The fuel manifold, through spring tension on a diaphragm and valve, evenly distributes the fuel to an air-bleed type injector nozzle in the intake valve chamber of each cylinder. A pressure line is also attached to the fuel manifold, and is connected to a fuel flow indicator on the instrument panel. Optional Hand Pump Priming System -- No Change. FUEL SYSTEM IN ADDITION TO THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE OWNERS HANDBOOK THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS APPLICABLE. Fuel flows by gravity from the wing tanks to a three-position selector valve, labeled LEFT, RIGHT and BOTH. With the fuel selector in the LEFT, RIGHT, or BOTH position fuel flows through a reservoir tank, the fuel shut off valve, through a bypass in the auxiliary fuel pump (when it is not in operation), the fuel strainer and to an engine driven fuel pump. The engine driven fuel pump delivers the fuel to the fuel control unit where it is metered and directed to a manifold which distributes it to each cylinder. Vapor and excess fuel from the engine driven fuel pump and fuel control unit are returned by way of a vapor return line to the wing tank vent line

NOTE Wing heavy conditions may occur during cruising flight. Wing heavy conditions can be alleviated gradually by turning the fuel selector to the heavy wing until balance is achieved then returning the fuel selector to BOTH. An additional fuel sump drain is installed in the aircraft belly aft of the firewall. This drain allows water and or contaminates to be drained from the reservoir tank.

SECTION II. DESCRIPTION AND OPERATING DETAILS (Cont’d) An electric fuel pump is used for normal engine starting, minor vapor purging and continued engine operation in the event of an engine driven fuel pump failure. The fuel pump is controlled with a three position toggle switch located in the lower section of the instrument panel. The center position is OFF, up is the PRIME (emergency position), and down is ON. With the fuel pump in the ON position the pump operates at one of two flow rates that are dependent upon the setting of the throttle. With the throttle open to a cruise setting the pump operates at a high enough capacity to supply sufficient fuel flow to maintain flight with an inoperative engine driven fuel pump. When the throttle is moved toward the closed position the flow rate is automatically reduced, preventing an excessive rich mixture during those periods of reduced engine speed.

NOTE

With the engine pump operating and the electric fuel pump placed in the ON position an excessively rich fuel mixture will be produced unless the mixture is leaned. The electric fuel pump switch should be OFF for takeoff. Operating the electric fuel pump with the engine OFF will result in flooding of the intake manifold. If a fuel tank is completely exhausted of fuel the electric fuel pump will be needed to assist in restarting the engine. Prior to running a fuel tank dry an operational check of the electric fuel pump should be accomplished Cold Weather Operation The fuel injection system on this engine is considered to be non-icing. In the event that icing conditions cause the intake air filter to become clogged or iced over, the alternate air source should be manually opened. Due to the lower intake pressure available through the alternate air valve, full throttle manifold pressure can decrease approximately 1.5 inches Hg. OIL DIPSTICK CALIBRATIONS The oil dipstick is calibrated for both landplane and floatplane/amphibian use. Oil level readings for the floatplane/amphibian will register below the calibrations for the landplane due to the difference in attitude of the airplane. When checking the oil level, take precautions to assure that you are using the correct calibrations for your airplane. The landplane side of the dipstick is marked with four lines representing six, eight, ten and twelve quarts. The bottom line is the six quart level; the top line is the twelve quart (full) level. The floatplane/amphibian side of the dipstick has two x marks. The lower mark indicates nine quarts and the upper mark indicates twelve quarts.

Ignition Switch -- BOTH (or START if propeller is stopped). Fires ENGINE FIRE IN FLIGHT Add: Auxiliary Fuel Pump - OFF ELECTRICAL FIRE IN FLIGHT Add: Auxiliary Fuel Pump -- OFF. AMPLIFIED PROCEDURES Rough Engine Operation or Loss of Power The fuel injection system on this engine is considered to be non-icing. In the event that icing conditions cause the intake air filter to become clogged or iced over, the alternate air source should be manually opened. Due to the lower intake pressure available through the alternate air valve, full throttle manifold pressure can decrease approximately 1.5 inches Hg.

SECTION III. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES, (Cont’d) Engine-Driven Fuel Pump Failure Failure of the engine-driven fuel pump will be evidenced by a sudden reduction in the fuel flow indication prior to a loss of power, while operating from a fuel tank containing adequate fuel. In the event of an engine-driven fuel pump failure during takeoff, immediately hold the auxiliary fuel pump switch in the PRIME position until the airplane is well clear of obstacles. Upon reaching a safe altitude and reducing the power to a cruise setting, release the PRIME side of the switch. If indication of engine driven fuel pump failure is evident place the auxiliary fuel pump switch in the ON position and land at the nearest airport and repair before proceeding flight. If an engine-driven fuel pump failure occurs during cruising flight, apply full rich mixture and hold the auxiliary fuel pump switch in the PRIME position to re-establish fuel flow. . If indication of engine driven fuel pump failure is evident place the auxiliary fuel pump switch in the ON position and land at the nearest airport and repair before proceeding flight. FIRE DURING STARTING OR DURING FLIGHT Improper starting procedures during a difficult or cold start may lead to a backfire which could ignite the fuel in the induction system. If an engine fire occurs during starting turn the electric fuel pump OFF and pull the fuel shut off control up to theOFF position (full out).. Continue cranking until the fire is out. Secure the aircraft and inspect for damage prior to continuing. If a fire occurs during flight turn the electric fuel pump OFF. Pull the fuel shut off control up to the OFF position (full out), and execute an immediate forced landing. Engine Icing The fuel injection system used on this engine is considered to be non-icing. Watch for signs of induction air filter ice and use alternate air as required. An unexplained loss of manifold pressure could be caused by air intake filter ice. In the event that icing conditions cause the intake air filter to become clogged or iced over, the alternate air source should be manually opened. Lean the mixture if alternate air is used continuously. Due to the lower intake pressure available through the alternate air valve or a partially blocked filter, full throttle manifold pressure can decrease approximately 1.5 in. Hg.
