WARNING: DO NOT TOUCH THE APU UNTIL IT IS SUFFICIENTLY COOL TO PREVENT BURNS WHEN
YOU DO THE MAINTENANCE TASK(S).

WARNING: WHILE THE APU OPERATES, DO NOT GO INTO THESE AREAS:


- THE AREA BEHIND THE APU EXHAUST DUCT: 25m (82ft.) REARWARD OF THE DUCT,
MORE THAN 3m (10ft.) ABOVE THE GROUND, AND THE WIDTH OF THE HORIZONTAL
STABILIZER
- THE AREA AROUND THE APU AIR-INTAKE: 2m (7ft) AROUND THE INTAKE
- THE AREA OF THE OIL-COOLER OUTLET.
THERE IS A RISK OF INJURY IF YOU GO INTO THESE AREAS.

WARNING: DO NOT START THE APU WHEN THE AIRCRAFT IS IN THE HANGAR. WHEN THE APU
OPERATES, THERE ARE RISKS OF INJURY FROM HIGH TEMPERATURES AND DANGEROUS
FUMES (THAT CAN FILL THE HANGAR). MAKE SURE THAT PERSONS STAY AWAY FROM
THE EXHAUST DUCT. THE EXHAUST DUCT IS DANGEROUS.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE THE APU DURING FLUID DE-ICING OPERATIONS. DE-ICING FLUID CAN
CONTAMINATE THE INSIDE OF THE APU.

CAUTION: DO NOT START OR TRY TO START THE APU MORE THAN THREE TIMES, ONE AFTER THE
OTHER. AFTER THE THIRD TIME, THERE MUST BE A MINIMUM OF ONE HOUR BEFORE YOU
START OR TRY TO START THE APU AGAIN. THIS MAKES SURE THAT THE TEMPERATURE
OF THE STARTER MOTOR DECREASES SUFFICIENTLY.

CAUTION: DO NOT START THE APU WITH ACCESS DOORS 315AL AND 316AR OPEN/REMOVED.
THE APU FIRE EXTINGUISHER SYSTEM IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO EXTINGUISH A FIRE IF THE
ACCESS DOORS 315AL AND 316AR ARE OPEN/REMOVED.

CAUTION: DO NOT TRY TO START THE APU AGAIN DURING A REFUEL/DEFUEL PROCEDURE AFTER
AN AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN OR FAILED APU START. IF YOU DO, THERE IS A RISK OF
INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE.

CAUTION: OBEY THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
