The seats heating is only available when the airplane is connected to a GPU or
when the main generator is supplying power.
The system does not operate if GENERATOR selector is set to ST-BY.
The SEATS HTRS MASTER switch allows the pilot to enable or not the electrical
supply of all seats heaters.
Each seat is then individually controlled by the HI/OFF/LOW switch:
NOTE
Two tactile marks located under the HI/OFF/LOW switch enables to determine
which position is selected.
-
OFF position is obtained when the switch is in the central position. In this
position the seat does not heat.
-
HI position is obtained by positioning the switch to the right. In this position
the seat heats at its maximum capacity.
-
LOW position is obtained by positioning the switch to the left. In this position
the seat heats less than HI position.
NOTE
In HI position, the heating sensation comes up after approximately three
minutes.
To avoid overheating, each seat is equipped with thermal sensors which remove
power supply in case of overtemperature detection.
Precaution of use of the seats heaters system:
-
Do not place any sharp or heavy objects on the seat, as the seat heater
could otherwise be damaged.
-
Persons with an impaired sensitivity to heat should only operate the seat
heater at low level.
-
Do not place any heat insulating objects, such as blankets or coats, on the
seat when the seat heater is switched on.
-
The seat heater can be damaged by fluids spilt on the seat.
-
Never switch the seat heater on when it is wet.
