The Tuning Backup Control Head (TBCH);
Can be used to tune COM 2 and NAV 2.
A passenger oxygen generator will produce oxygen for approximately;
12 minutes.
Proper operation of the IRS requires the mode selector;

The EGPWS will generate an aural TERRAIN, TERRAIN PULL UP message;
30 seconds away from terrain conflict.
The nose gear landing light;
Requires the nose gear to be down and locked and the nose landing switch selected to illuminate.
Low bank mode is automatically selected;
When climbing above 25000 ft.
Choose the correct statement regarding the Flight Level Change Mode (FLC).
FLC will maintain a climb speed of Mach 0.56 above 17377 ft.
The red light on the emergency flashlights;
Is illuminated when the flashlight is charging.
The crew oxygen mask delivers oxygen under positive pressure;
By selecting the emergency setting on the mask.
When the passenger oxygen knob is set to AUTO the system is automatically deployed when;
The cabin altitude is above 14000 +/- 500 ft.
If the FPMU fails;
The engine will shut down.

In the auto pressure controller, the take-off sequence lasts until;
The cabin altitude is equal to the theoretical altitude.
If an Air Data Computer fails;
A red X will appear on the airspeed and altitude display.
