WARNING
Any automatic fire extinguishing
system (AFES) unit in need of
maintenance or repair is more prone
to accidental discharge. Accidental
discharge could lead to frostbite or
other injury.
Small parts or tools
become dangerous projectiles when
propelled by HaIon discharging at 750
psi. Do not strike cylinder bottles
with tools and do not drop cylinder
bottles.
To prevent accidental
discharge, be careful when handling
cylinder bottles.
The engine AFES is designed to
provide from 2 to 4 hours of fire
protection AFTER vehicle shutdown.
Turning off the master switch does
NOT deactivate the AFES. Working
on the AFES when active may cause
serious injury to personnel.
NOTE
All crew AFES cylinder bottle bracket
straps are removed the same way.
