If a rupture occurs to the pneumatic lines of the No. 1
or No. 2 deice system, the affected side will have to
be isolated from the functioning side to prevent
further loss of de---ice pressure.
To isolate the systems, select the BOOT AIR ISO
valve switch to ISO. This closes the isolate valve
thereby isolating the affected system and
maintaining deice pressure in the functioning
system.
WARNING
With no deice pressure to one wing following a
rupture and subsequent ISO selection with the
BOOT AIR switch, the system must not be
operated in AUTO or the wings will be deiced
asymmetrically. To minimize lateral control
problems while keeping the unaffected
engine intake and the tail clear of ice, the
system should be operated in MANUAL, with
selections limited to the engine intakes and
the tail boots.
