WARNING
Use of the HomeSafe emergency function may result in serious injury
and/or death because there are too many unknown variables that may
affect the successful outcome of an HomeSafe function flight.
HomeSafe Emergency Function Deactivation
The pilot can override the HomeSafe function at any time.
WARNING
HomeSafe deactivation must be performed by a pilot who is:
- fully capable of flying the airplane, and
- fully aware of all actions needed to be
performed in reconfiguring the
airplane (the flight plan in the FMS is
lost, the landing gear and flap
positions may not agree with the lever
positions for the landing gear and
flaps).
CAUTION
Deactivation of HomeSafe is not recommended while the airplane is on final
approach.
While HomeSafe is actived, the cockpit displays no longer comply with the pilot
interface requirements (in particular
, theh engine parameters and CAS messages
are not available).
If the pilot is no longer incapacitated and is capable of flying the airplane, he/she
must deactivate HomeSafe before taking control of the airplane.
HomeSafe can be deactivated by any of the following actions:
- Pressing twice on the control wheel's AP/TRIM DISC pushbutton,
- Pressing the AP button on the AFCS control unit (applicable only if
HomeSafe has taken control of the airplane).
CAUTION
MFD reconfiguration can take up to one minute. During this time, engine
instruments and CAS messages can be displayed on the PFD by using
DISPLAY BACKUP.
