NOTE: This procedure is applicable to the most commonly used remote switch (345-6196-04). If an
optional switch is installed in lieu of this one, the applicable installation instructions should be
consulted.

(2) The switch assembly must be mounted in the cockpit where the pilot can easily reach the
switch and see the LED.
(3) The switch assembly requires a space approximately 2.0 x 1.3 in. (51 x 33 mm) on the panel
surface and behind the panel. See Figure 17. Remote Switch Outline and Dimensions.
