It Indicates the cabin altitude has exceeded 10,000 ft. It can be silenced by pressing the ALT HORN CUTOUT Switch.
Reference: FRM 2.1.4
Q.2.22. What is our policy/guidance on silencing aural alert and resetting the MASTER CAUTION System?
Flight Deck Crew should silence any aural alert and reset the MASTER CAUTION System as soon as the cause of the alert is recognized.
Reference: AOM 5.1.1.2
Q.2.23. What causes an OFF SCHED DESCENT light to illuminate?
An amber OFF SCHED DESCENT light illuminates if the aircraft begins to descend without having reached the preset cruise altitude in the FLT ALT indicator.
Reference: FRM 2.1.5, FRM B737NG 2.5.5, FRM B737MAX 2.4.5
Q.2.24. What is the pressurization controller scheduling for the landing altitude after receiving an OFF SCHED DESCENT light?

Reference: FRM B737NG 2.5.5, FRM B737MAX 2.4.5
Q.2.25. How many pressure relief valves are on the aircraft?
2 positive pressure relief valves, and 1 negative pressure relief valve

Q.2.26. Why is there a CAUTION associated with using manual pressurization?
The manual motor operates at higher rate than AUTO or ALTN motor.
A small movement of the outflow valve can cause a large change in cabin rate of climb rate or descent. Manual actuation of the outflow valve can produce large, rapid changes in cabin pressure which could result in passenger and crew discomfort and/or injury.
Reference: FRM B737NG 2.5.2, FRM B737MAX 2.4.2

Perform a window heat test.
Reference: AOM 16.3.1, FRM 3.1.1
Q.3.3. Selecting the OVHT position of the Window Heat Test Switch causes what to happen?
Simulates an overheat condition.
Reference: FRM 3.1.1
Q.3.4. With the PROBE HEAT Switch in AUTO, when is power automatically supplied to the probe heat system?

Reference: FRM B737MAX 3.1.5, B737MAX QRH 3.3
Q.3.8. The MAX has an additional engine anti-ice feature called Core anti-ice. How is it operationally controlled?
Core anti-ice is automatically controlled by the EEC’s with no crew input or indication of normal operation.
Reference: FRM B737MAX 3.2.5
Q.3.9. Besides controlling the engine anti-ice functions, what does placing the ENG ANTI-ICE switches to the ON position do?
