Brakes Cooling Limitation
Do not takeoff with amber brake temperature indicators.
Landing Gear Retraction Limitation
Activation of the landing gear down lock release button is prohibited for all takeoffs unless obstacle clearance is required.
Thrust Reverser Limitations
- Approved for ground use only.
- Intended for use during rejected and full stop landings.
- Do not attempt a go-around maneuver after deployment of the thrust reversers.
- Power back operations using the thrust reversers are prohibited.
- Must be stowed below 60 kts.
- After Selecting Reverse Thrust, do not move the thrust levers into the forward thrust range until the REV icon on the EICAS is amber or green.
Instrument Limitations
- TAS, TAT, and SAT are only valid above 60 kts.
- Standby Magnetic Compass indication is not valid while transmitting on VHF #1.
- Barometric Altimeter mins must be used for all CAT 1 approaches.
Navigation Limitations
- LOC Backcourse approaches using IESS are not authorized.
- The Captain must ensure displayed guidance from non usable stations is not used for navigation purposes by the flight crew.
TCAS Limitation
Pilots are authorized to deviate from their current ATC clearance to the extent necessary to comply with a Resolution Advisory (RA).
RVSM Min Equipment
- 2 RVSM compliant Air Data Systems
- 1 Autopilot, engaged, with Altitude Hold Mode Operative
- 1 Altitude Alerter
- 1 Transponder
- The ADS1, ADS2, ADS3 are compliant with RVSM operation.
- The IESS must not be used
- Should any of the equipment fail prior to entering RVSM airspace, the pilot should request a new clearance to avoid entering this airspace.
RVSM ADS 3
The ADS3 is not considered RVSM compliant in case of loss of sideslip compensation. (EICAS message ADS3 SLIPCOMP FAIL displayed)

Warm UP / Cool Down
- Before applying takeoff thrust, allow the engines to warm up for a minimum of 2 minutes.
- A 2 minute cool down must be observed prior to shutting down an engine.
After Power-up
Ensure airplane is not moved until IESS is initialized. Initialization occurs within 90 seconds after power-up.
To allow the flight controls built-in test, wait three (3) minutes after power up to turn any hydraulic pump on.
Ground pneumatic start cart caution:
Do not operate air conditioning packs to avoid cabin air contamination.
