1) RAT will deploy | 2) blue system pressure restored
182
What is the difference between pressing the RAT MAN ON button the HYD panel vs the MAN ON button on the EMER ELEC PWR panel?
Electrics will not couple
183
When is the PTU inhibited?
1) first eng start 2) one ENG master ON & PARK BRK set 3) NSW DISC on EICAM 4) cargo door operation
184
When is the PTU automatically tested?
The PTU is automatically tested during the second engine start
185
You experience a G RSVR OVHT ECAM caution. After completing the non-normal procedure the FAULT lights remain illuminated (ENG 1 PUMP FAULT/ PTU FAULT) but then extinguish several minutes later. When the lights extinguish, what does that indicate?
The overhead condition has abated
186
Prior to starting eng 2 during a one engine taxi, why is the Y ELEC PUMP turned OFF?
Permits automatic PTU test during second engine start
187
Why is the hydraulic YELLOW ELEC PUMP required to be turned ON during ONE ENGINE TAXI?
1) prevents PTU operation while taxiing (noisy) due to no pressure differential 2) hydraulic source for yellow system braking
188
When are the probes and windows heated automatically?
In flight | On ground with one engine running (except TAT probes)
189
With loss of electrical power, which position do the engine anti ice valves fail?
Open
190
With loss of electrical power, in which position do the wing anti ice valves fail?
Engines: open Wings: closed
191
What affect does each turn of the GEAR EXTN handle have?
Pull crank out Turn clockwise 3 turns This releases hydraulic pressure to the gear, opens gear doors, unlocks gear
192
Assuming loss of green and yellow system, what source is available for braking?
Yellow BRK ACCU PR only
193
By selecting the A/SKID and NW STRG switch OFF, what does this have on the breaking system?
Green hyd pressure is shut off to the normal brake system. Yellow supplies pressure to the brakes without anti skid protection
194
What do the red UNLK lights mean on the landing gear panel?
Landing gear is not in the locked position
195
If the DECEL light fails to illuminate after landing, what does that indicate?
The predetermined deceleration rate has NOT been achieved
196
What does the A/THR annunciation LVR ASYM mean?
Appears amber if, with A/THR active, both engines running, one thrust lever is out of the CLB detent
197
With the ENG MODE SEL switch in norm (one engine running) when is cont ignition automatically selected?
1) T/O power is set (TOGA or FLX) 2) engine anti ice is on 3) engine surge or stall in flight 4) flap handle out of zero in flight
198
What does the flashing LVR CLB indication mean?
Thrust levers are not in CLB detent, both engines running, above the thrust reduction altitude
199
What does the flashing LVR MCT mean?
Power is not set to MCT, after eng failure, above green dot, clean config (NOTE that the TLs May be in the FLX/MCT detent)
200
How can you extinguish LVR MCT?
Move thrust levers out of MCT detent and back into MCT detent
201
A valid cockpit voice recorder test will occur if what conditions are met when the CVR TEST PB is pressed?
Pressed and held Parking brake on A low frequency sound plays on speakers
202
What does the dashes green arc mean on the ND (just inside the heading arc)
Required distance to land from present position
203
When does the dashed green arc appear (just inside heading arc)
Only displayed in descent or approach phase when a lateral mode is engaged (HDG or TRK)
204
What is the difference between the yellow side slip indicator and the blue beta target?
Turns blue in case of engine failure during takeoff or go around Yellow=sideslip Blue=optimal sideslip with eng failed
205
When will the blue BETA target index replace the turn and slip indicator?
Eng failure on takeoff or go around
206
Why is it important to center the blue BETA target index?
The amount of sideslip is optimized for best single eng performance (May result in a slight bank)
207
When TO INHIBIT or LDG INHIBIT are displayed on the lower right side of the E/WD what does this mean?
Only failures/fires that require immediate recognition are displayed. All others are suppressed.
208
When is LDG INHIBIT active?
During landing (800 ft or 80kt)
209
On takeoff when is TO INHIBIT active?
Takeoff power up to 1500’ or 2 mins after takeoff
210

211
What occurs when you press TO CONFIG?
Simulated application of TO POWER
212
