CAUTION:
DO NOT MOVE PARTS OF THE CABIN FURNISHINGS UNTIL THE CABIN IS WARM.
CAUTION:
DO NOT CONNECT EXTERNAL POWER TO THE AIRCRAFT UNTIL THE AVIONICS COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURE IS MORE THAN -15 DEG.C (5 DEG.F).
CAUTION:
DO NOT OPERATE THE WINDOW HEAT UNTIL THE PROCEDURE TELLS YOU.
CAUTION:
DO NOT BLOW WARM AIR DIRECTLY ON THE COMPUTERS IN THE AVIONICS COMPARTMENT. IF YOU DO, YOU CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION:
DO NOT PUT THE TUBES OF THE HEATING DEVICE THROUGH THE SLIDING WINDOWS TO MAKE THE COCKPIT WARM. HEAT FROM THE TUBES CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
