1. Remove the over-wing fairing panel on the affected side to access the V-band
clamp on the up-stream side of the associated anti-ice bleed air pressure
regulating shutoff valve.
2. Remove the V-band clamp upstream of the valve and install a blanking plate with
the following specifications:
a. 301 stainless steel half hard.
b. 2.000”, +0.020/-0.000 in diameter.
c. .020” thick.
3. Re-install clamp and torque to appropriate values.
4. Position the aircraft in a suitable run-up area and chock both main landing gear.
5. Station an additional technician outside of aircraft. Make sure appropriate
personal safety equipment is used and all personnel are briefed on hazards of
working with operating engines.
6. Using AFM Normal Procedures, start both engines. Ensure AFM Ground
Operation Limitations are observed.

NOTE: Since the engine inlet under temperature switch is set at 60ºF (15.56ºC),
testing on days where the ambient temperature approaches this set point
may lead to the annunciator not illuminating. Annunciator will only
illuminate under normal conditions in ambient temperature settings less
than 60ºF (15.56ºC).
CAUTION: The wing engine anti-ice switches operate both the left and right
wing leading edge and engine air inlet systems. Do not operate the
system longer than 5 minutes followed by a 30 minute cooling off
period.
WARNING: Use extreme care when touching heated surfaces. Severe burns to
hands could result.
1. Position aircraft in a suitable run-up area and chock both main landing gear.
2. Station an additional technician outside of aircraft. Make sure appropriate
personal safety equipment is used and all personnel are briefed on hazards of
working with operating engines.
3. Using AFM Normal Procedures, start both engines.
4. Ensure LH and RH ENGINE ANTI ICE circuit breakers are engaged.
5. Select the appropriate L or R ENGINE anti-ice switch to the ENGINE ON position
and verify the affected side indication(s) illuminates/display.
6. Slowly increase the affected side throttle to 70%N2 and verify the affected side
annunciator/CAS message extinguishes within one minute.
7. Switch the affected side ENGINE anti-ice switch to the OFF position and reduce
throttle to idle.
8. Repeat steps 4 thru 6 for the unaffected side.
9. Cautiously verify the temperature of the both engine inlets. The engine inlet
should be a minimum of outside air +50ºF(10ºC), verified by lightly touching the
surfaces. Another method is to verify heated airflow from the exhaust vent on the
side of the engine nacelle.
10. Using AFM Normal Procedures, power down aircraft
OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE:
1. Flight crew must make sure that ambient temperatures at takeoff/landing do not
