HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
This manual provides instructions for operating and maintaining the AN/ALQ-162(V)2 Countermeasures (CM)
Set at the Operator and Aviation Unit Maintenance (AVUM) Level.
The CM Set can be installed in several types of aircraft. Maintenance instructions and aircraft illustrations
contained in this manual are generic and do not relate to a specific aircraft. When removing or replacing any
of the CM Set equipment, refer to the applicable aircraft manual listed in Appendix A for specific equipment
locations and safety precautions.
Before you begin operation or maintenance, READ THE MANUAL. You must familiarize yourself with the
entire manual before you begin the operation or maintenance tasks.
Use the front cover index, and corresponding black tabs on the side of the manual, to quickly find the parts of
the manual that are used most often. For example, suppose you want to know how to remove the CM Set’s
receiver-transmitter unit. On the front cover, the section most likely to contain this information is “Maintenance
Procedures”.
Find the tab on the side of the manual that lines up with “Maintenance Procedures” and open
the manual to that page.
In the SECTION CONTENTS on page 3-13, you see that a paragraph titled “RT Removal and
Installation” begins on page 3-18.
Turn to page 3-18 to find the procedure.
