OPERATING CHECKLIST
One of the first steps in obtaining the utmost perfor-
mance, service, and flying enjoyment from your Cessna is to
familiarize yourself with your aircraft's equipment, systems,
and controls. This can best be done by reviewing this equip-
ment while sitting in the aircraft. Those items whose func-
tion and operation are not obvious are covered in Section II.
Section I lists, in Pilot's Checklist form, the steps
necessary to operate your aircraft efficiently and safely.
It covers briefly all the points that you should know con-
cerning the information you need for a typical flight.
The flight and operational characteristics of your
aircraft are normal in all respects. All controls respond in
the normal way within the entire range of operation.

due to fuel accumulation in the induction
system. Similar conditions may develop
when the engine is shutdown with the aux-
iliary fuel pump ON.
e During very hot weather, caution should be
exercised to prevent overpriming the
engines.
e Should fuel priming or auxiliary fuel pump
operation periods in excess of 60 seconds
occur, the engine manifold must be purged
by one of the following procedures.
(a) With auxiliary fuel pump OFF, allow
manifold to drain at least 5 minutes
or until fuel ceases to flow out of
the drain under the nacelle.
(b) If circumstances do not allow natural
draining periods recommended above,
with the auxiliary fuel pump OFF,
magnetos OFF, mixture idle cut-off and
throttle full open, turn engine with
