## Discrepancy

AFTER TAKEOFF,  THE PILOT INCREASED THE CABIN TEMPERATURE SETTING TO HOT AND NOTED SMOKE IN THE COCKPIT A FEW MOMENTS LATER. T DUMPED CABIN PRESSURE TO EXPEL THE SMOKE, DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND LOWERED THE CABIN TEMPERATURE SETTING. SMOKE WAS NO LONGER NOTED AND THE AIRCRAFT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE TIGHTENED A RIGHT CONSOLE TUBING OUTLET CONNECTION AND PERFORMED GROUND OPERATIONAL CHECK WITH THE CABIN TEMPERATURE SETTINGS IN THE HOT POSITION. SMOKE FROM THE RIGHT SIDE CONSOLE TUBING WAS NOTED FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN STOPPED.  NO FURTHER OBVIOUS DEFECTS WERE NOTED. THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE. THE SMOKE SEEMED COME FROM AN OILY PRESERVATIVE ON THE RIGHT CONSOLE  TUBING.
