Operational Note: Protected Area => Set up a 2.7 NM circle for reference around RWYs.
If AC power is lost and Cyan message BATT EMER PWR ON shows, how long do the Batteries Supply
Electrical power?
- At least 5 minutes (2 acft batteries – MAIN & APU).
Note: Different than the 4 Emergency Batteries (ELPS – Emergency Lighting Power Supply batteries trickle
charged from DC ESS Bus 1) that can provide a minimum of 15 minutes if fully charged.
What happens when APU Fire is detected on the ground?
The APU automatically shuts down, and if no crew action is taken within 10 seconds, BTL 2 discharges into
the APU enclosure.
After Touchdown, what does the red warning message NORMAL BRAKE FAIL accompanied with an aural
warning indicate?
- Total Failure of Normal Braking. Use the Emergency Brake (Parking Brake) carefully.
If there’s visible Smoke/Fire in the flight compartment, the crew oxygen masks and smoke goggles should be
donned with the masks Set to:
- Set to EMERGENCY.
Which action should automatically occur when cabin Altitude reaches 14,500ft (+/- 500ft)?
- The Passenger Oxygen Masks automatically deploy.
A red EMERGENCY DESCENT warning message indicates the Automatic Emergency Descent Mode (EDM) has
been activated due to cabin altitude reaching:
14,500ft (+/- 500ft)
Which control on the Pressurization Panel automatically opens the Outflow Valves and Depressurizes the
airplane?
EMER DEPRESS guarded PBA.
