Automatic Pressurization Control – Landing Airport Elevation
Above 6000 Feet
Do the normal Preflight Procedure - First Officer except as modified
below.
Prior to takeoff:
LAND ALT indicator...............................................6000 feet
At initial descent or approximately 20 minutes prior to landing:
If landing elevation is above 8400 feet:
HIGH ALT LDG switch (if installed) ...................... ON
If landing elevation is above 10,000 feet:
Oxygen masks and regulators .................... ON, Normal
Supplemental oxygen must be used anytime the cabin
altitude is above 10,000 feet.
LAND ALT indicator................... Destination field elevation
# Bleeds OFF Takeoff - APU Bleed
When making a no engine bleed takeoff with the APU providing bleed air.
Note: If antiice is required for taxi, configure for a No Engine Bleed Takeoff
just prior to takeoff.
Note: If antiice is not required for taxi, configure for a No Engine Bleed
Takeoff just after engine start.
After Both Engines are Running
PACK switches ................................................................ AUTO / HIGH
ISOLATION VALVE switch.......................................................... OPEN
Engine BLEED air switches ............................................................. OFF
APU BLEED air switch ......................................................................ON

Takeoff (when cleared to enter the departure runway)
PACK switches ............................................................................. AUTO
ISOLATION VALVE switch........................................................CLOSE
WING ANTI-ICE switch .................................................................. OFF
The WING ANTI-ICE switch must remain OFF until the engine
BLEED air switches are repositioned to ON and the ISOLATION
VALVE switch is repositioned to AUTO.
After Takeoff
At thrust reduction and/or flap retraction altitude:
Engine No. 2 BLEED air switch ............................................. ON
After the flaps are up:
APU BLEED air switch ..........................................................OFF
When CABIN rate of CLIMB indicator stabilizes:
Engine No. 1 BLEED air switch ............................................. ON
ISOLATION VALVE switch .............................................. AUTO
APU ..................................................................... OFF / as needed
# Bleeds OFF Takeoff - Unpressurized
When making a no engine bleed takeoff with the APU not providing bleed air.
Takeoff (when cleared to enter the departure runway)
PACK switches ............................................................................. AUTO
ISOLATION VALVE switch........................................................CLOSE
Engine BLEED air switches ............................................................. OFF
APU BLEED air switch .................................................................... OFF
After Takeoff
Note: If engine failure occurs, do not position engine BLEED air switches ON
until reaching 1500 feet or until obstacle clearance height has been
attained.

Bleeds OFF Landing - APU Bleed
When making a no engine bleed landing with the APU providing bleed air and in
case additional goaround thrust is desired.
When below 10,000 feet:

Engine BLEED air switches ................................................... OFF
Avoid high rates of descent for passenger comfort.
# Isolated Pack Operation during Engine Start
To improve cabin air quality between starting the first and second engine
(considering that Engine No.2 is started first):
