Emergency Lights

Figure 1: Emergency Lights
Figure 2: Ramp Release


Emergency lights (see Figure 1) are installed at various positions in the helicopter and provide lights for emergency evacuation in the event of a crash. They are controlled by a three position switch labeled EMER EXIT LIGHTS on the pilot-side of the upper console. In the TEST position, all emergency lights will turn on for testing. In the OFF position, the lights will always remain OFF. In the ARM position (recommended for normal flight), the emergency lights will come on in the event of a sudden acceleration or shock. Once the shock sensor has been tripped, it must be manually reset by clicking on one of the emergency lights in the helicopter.
