NOTE: Fuel calculations do not use the aircraft fuel quantity indicators and are calculated from the last time
the fuel was reset.
The EIS System Display shows the engine manifold pressure, tachometer, fuel quantity and flow, fuel
calculations, and oil, cabin, and electrical indications. Fuel calculations are based on the displayed fuel remaining
(GAL REM) and the fuel flow totalizer. The fuel remaining can be adjusted using the following softkeys:
- DEC FUEL – Decreases totalizer-based fuel remaining in one-gallon increments
- INC FUEL – Increases totalizer-based fuel remaining in one-gallon increments
- RST FUEL – Resets totalizer-based fuel remaining (GAL REM) relative to the aircraft’s fuel capacity and sets
the displayed fuel used (GAL USED) to zero
Accessing the EIS System Display:
1) Press the ENGINE Softkey.
2) Press the SYSTEM Softkey.
3) To return to the default Engine Display, press the ENGINE or BACK Softkey.
Adjusting the fuel totalizer quantity:
From the System Display, press the
DEC FUEL or INC FUEL
Softkey to adjust the fuel remaining (GAL REM).
Resetting the fuel totalizer:
From the System Display, press the
RST FUEL
Softkey. This also resets totalizer-based fuel remaining (GAL
REM) relative to the aircraft’s fuel capacity and sets the displayed fuel used (GAL USED) to zero.
