Definition “Low Visibility Takeoff (LVTO)”?

A LVTO is a takeoff where the RVR is less than 400m but not less than 75m.
However for Condor Boeing A/C the minimum RVR for a LVTO is 150m.
During Approach Preparation: No NDB App. is stored in FMC. What options do you have? What limitation is valid?
OM-B 2.3.5.3
If no approach is stored in the FMC, the approach may be constructed by creating Fixes or RWY
extensions or by using any other FMC stored approach if within 3 degrees of the planned
approach.
VNAV should not be used on a manually constructed approach.
