CHAPTER 1
Section 01-00-00 Introduction
This document provides the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness for the G500H Flight
Display System as installed in Airbus Helicopters AS 350 B2, AS 350 B3 and EC 130 B4. This
document satisfies the requirement for continued airworthiness as required by 14 CFR 27.1529
and Part 27 Appendix A. Modification of an aircraft by STC SR02295LA obligates the aircraft
operator to include the maintenance information provided by this document in the operator’s
Aircraft Maintenance Manual and the operator’s Aircraft Scheduled Maintenance Program, if
applicable.
The contents of this ICA are limited to the support of equipment installed in accordance with
STC SR02295LA, which includes the GDC 72H Air Data Computer (ADC), GRS 79H Attitude and
Heading Reference System (AHRS), and GSU 75H Air Data, Attitude and Heading Reference
System (ADAHRS), using installation data from 190-01150-07, Installation Manual Addendum
G500H Part 27 AML STC. STC SR02295LA specifies that the G500H Flight Display System must
be installed in accordance with STC SR09575RC or SR09576RC as applicable, prior to installing
these sensors. The instructions contained within this document supplement the existing ICA
and system-level maintenance instructions contained within in the following reference
documents:
190-00792-12, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness for the Garmin G500H Installation
in Eurocopter AS350, for G500H system installed per STC SR09575RC
190-01527-15, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness for the Garmin G500H Installation
in Eurocopter EC130, for G500H system installed per STC SR09576RC
This document is required for maintaining the continued airworthiness of the aircraft. Garmin
Dealers may obtain the latest revision of this document at the Garmin Dealer Resource Center,
https://dealers.garmin.com. Dealers are notified of manual revision changes by way of a Garmin
Service Bulletin. Owners and operators may obtain the latest revision of this document at

CHAPTER 5
Section 05-00-00 Continued Airworthiness Inspections
1. General
This chapter contains time limit intervals for the Component Overhaul Schedule and Scheduled
Inspections for the G500H Installation. This chapter is to be added to the approved scheduled
inspection for the rotorcraft.
2. Component Overhaul Schedule
The system does not require overhaul at a specific time period. Power on self-test and
continuous BIT will monitor the health of the G500H system. If any LRU indicates an internal
failure, the unit may be removed and replaced.
3. Scheduled Inspections Overview
The G500H Installation requires a 90 Day Inspection that must be performed 90 days after
installation and then afterwards within 90 days of the last G500H Installation 90 day inspection.
The 90 Day Inspection requirements are specified in Table 5-1.
The G500H Installation requires an Annual Inspection that must be performed within 1 year (12
months) of initial installation and then afterwards within 1 year (12 months) of the last G500H
Installation annual inspection. The annual inspection requirements are specified in Table 5-2.
The G500H Installation requires a 5 Year Inspection that must be performed within 60 months
of initial installation and then afterwards within 60 months of the last G500H Installation
inspection. The 5 Year Inspection requirements are specified in Table 5-3.
The G500H Installation requires a 10 Year/2000 Flight Hours Inspection that must be performed
within 120 months or 2000 flight hours, whichever occurs first, of initial installation and then
afterwards within 120 months or 2000 flight hours, whichever occurs first, of the last G500H
Installation 10 year/2000 flight inspections. The 10 Year/2000 Flight Hour Inspection
requirements are specified in Table 5-4.
4. Special Inspection Practices
Conditions may arise from incidents or accidents that may warrant additional inspection requirements.
A Special Inspection is required if the aircraft is involved in a hard landing or is subjected to total
immersion in water. If either of these conditions occurs, the G500H Installation must be inspected using
the same procedures called out in the Annual Inspection Procedures in Table 5-2.

is related to a specific standard.
Condition The state of an item or component compared to a known standard.
Standard A specified rule or measure that is used to find the condition of a component.
Damage Physical deterioration of a component.
Inspection A procedure that includes checking, inspecting, and examining a system or
component.
Scheduled Inspection An inspection procedure that must occur at a specified calendar
interval or at specified operational time intervals. Scheduled Inspections are required to
help ensure the rotorcraft stays airworthy.
Maintenance The servicing and / or repair of a rotorcraft, a system, or a component that
keeps it serviceable.

Section 05-20-10 Continued Airworthiness Scheduled Inspections
1. General
This section contains requirements for scheduled inspections and a list of special tools required
to perform these inspections. If any part of the installation appears to be functioning
improperly, consult the troubleshooting guide. If a major component is damaged or continues
to malfunction, the component in question should be returned to the manufacturer for
replacement.
2. Scheduled Inspection Program
The G500H system requires scheduled inspections to maintain continued airworthiness. Every
effort should be made to perform the inspections with the aircraft placed in a clean, well-lit
environment. There are four different scheduled inspections of the G500H system.
a) 90 Day Inspection
The 90 day inspection is performed every 90-day period of calendar elapsed time, regardless
of hours of operation. The requirements of the 90-day inspection are specified in Table 5-1.
b) 1 Year (Annual) Inspection
The 1 year (annual) inspection is performed every 1 year period of calendar elapsed time,
regardless of hours of operation. The requirements of the 1 year (annual) inspection are
specified in Table 5-2.
c) 5 Year Inspection
The 5 year inspection is performed every 5 year period of calendar elapsed time, regardless
of hours of operation. The requirements of the 5 year inspection are specified in Table 5-3.
d) 10 Year / 2000 Flight Hours
The 10 year /2000 Flight Hour inspection is performed at a 10 year period of calendar elapsed
time, or at 2000 flight hours of operation, whichever occurs first. The requirements of the 10
year/2000 flight hour inspection are specified in Table 5-4.

3. Tools and Special Tools for Scheduled Inspection
Adjustable ball swivel mirror and bright flashlight and / or drop light are standard requirements
for doing inspections, although they are not necessarily considered special tools. These items
should be used freely and frequently to enhance inspection quality and help ensure
discrepancies are not missed. It is important to have adequate lighting for all phases of the
inspection.
The special tools necessary for the G500H inspection are listed as follows:
a) Milliohm meter with an accuracy of ± 0.1 milliohms or better (for electrical bonding
testing).

CHAPTER 12
Section 12-00-00 Servicing Maintenance Practices
This chapter includes Return-to-Service Practices and Calibration Practices to be used with the G500H
Flight Display System.
a) GDU 620 cooling fan replacement
Over time, the GDU cooling fans may degrade in performance and need to be replaced in order
to continue adequately cooling the display system.
To replace the cooling fans, follow the replacement procedure below.
NOTE
The GDU cooling fan replacement kit (P/N K00-00683-10) must be obtained
from an authorized Garmin dealer. In order for the GDU warranty to remain
valid, this procedure must be accomplished by an authorized Garmin dealer.
1. Removal
a. Place the GDU 620 on a flat surface with the fan cover plate assembly facing up
b. Remove and discard the six Torx
®
screws with a T10 driver.
c. Lift fan cover assembly and disconnect fan connectors. Set aside.
2. Installation
a. Place replacement fan cover assembly over unit.
b. Connect both fan connectors, noting plate orientation to match recess in unit. Ensure
connectors are fully engaged.
c. Lower fan cover assembly into place while being careful to not pinch fan wires.
d. Secure fan cover assembly with six provided Torx® screws. Torque each screw to 8 in-lbs,
+/- 1 in-lb.
3. Return to Service
a. After removing and reinstalling the GDU 620 cooling fans, the return-to-service checks
must be performed (reference Section 12-10-00 Return-to-Service Practices).
