Engine bleed air switches
With either one or both engine bleed air switches ON, do not operate the air conditioning packs in high for takeoff, approach, or landing
Anti-ice, Rain
Engine TAI must be on when icing conditions exist or are anticipated, except during climb and cruise below -40C SAT. Engine anti-ice must be on prior to and during descent in all icing conditions, including temperatures below -40C SAT. Delaying the use of TAI until ice buildup is visible from the cockpit may result in sever engine damage
Icing Conditions
Icing conditions exist when TAT is 10C (50F) or below and:
-visible moisture (clouds, fog with visibility less than one mile, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals, and so on) is present, or
-standing water, ice, or snow is present on the ramps, taxiways, or runways
Autopilot/Flight Director System
-Use of aileron trim with the autopilot engaged is prohibited
-Do not engage the autopilot for takeoff below 400 feet AGL
-For single channel operating during approach, the autopilot shall not remain engaged below 50 feet AGL
-Max allowable wind speeds when landing weather minima are predicated on auto land operations: headwind 25 kts, crosswind 20 kts, tailwind 15 kts
-Max and min glide slope angles for auto land are 3.25 degrees and 2.5 degrees
-Autoland capability may only be used with flaps 30 or 40 and both engines operative
-Do not use LVL CHG on final approach below 1000’ AFE
UHF limits
Do not transmit on 328.700 - 335.200 MHz when glide slope is being used during approach and landing
HF radio limits
If one HF radio is selected for transmission, deselect the other HF radio on all audio select panels to prevent interference
Flights predicated on the use of the following HF frequencies are prohibited: 29.489 and 29.490 MHz
Engine ignition
Engine ignition must be on for-
Takeoff, landing, operating in heavy rain, and anti-ice operations
Operation with assumed temp reduced takeoff thrust
Not permitted with anti-skid inoperative, or on runways contaminated with standing water, ice, slush, or snow
Not recommended if potential windshear conditions exist

-Holding in icing conditions with flaps extended is prohibited
-Avoid rapid large alternating control inputs
-Do not deploy the speed brakes in flight at radio altitudes less than 1,000’
Weather radar operation in a hangar
Avoid
