Step B
If supplying left A/C pack with No. 1 engine bleed air:
NO. 2 ENGINE LEFT BLEED AIR SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . OPEN
Check for sight duct pressure rise.
NO. 1 ENGINE BLEED AIR SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CLOSE
(Will eliminate the No. 1 engine as source of smoke)
Wait a reasonable time to determine if smoke stops. If smoke stops,
leave engine No. 1 bleed air switch closed.
If smoke continues:
NO. 1 ENGINE BLEED AIR SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . OPEN
NO. 2 ENGINE LEFT BLEED AIR SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CLOSE
Check for slight duct pressure decrease.
If supplying right A/C pack with No. 3 engine bleed air:
NO. 2 ENGINE RIGHT BLEED AIR SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . OPEN
Check for slight duct pressure rise.
NO. 3 ENGINE BLEED AIR SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CLOSE
(Will eliminate No. 3 engine as source of smoke)
Wait a reasonable time to determine if smoke stops. If smoke stops,
leave engine No. 3 bleed air switch closed.
If smoke continues:
NO. 3 ENGINE BLEED AIR SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . OPEN
Check for slight duct pressure rise.
NO. 2 ENGINE RIGHT BLEED AIR SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CLOSE
If smoke continues after isolating all applicable bleed air
sources, continue as follows:
CARGO HEAT OUTFLOW VALVE SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CLOSE
LEFT A/C PACK SWITCH
(Will eliminate the left air cycle machine as the source of smoke) . . . OFF
Wait a reasonable time to determine if smoke stops. If smoke stops,
leave right A/C pack switch OFF.
If smoke continues:
LEFT NC PACK SWITCH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ON

EMERGENCY DESCENT
If cabin pressure control cannot be re-established, an Emergency Descent
will be required/
Note: Prior to initiating, the Captain shall confirm the structural integrity
of the aircraft. If the structural integrity is in doubt, airspeed in
descent should be limited and high maneuvering loads avoided.
Captain will advise crew “Emergency Descent”.
MEA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ESTABLISH C, FO
Ascertain the Minimum Enroute Altitude to prevent descent to an
unsafe altitude.

Continuous Ignition switch ON.
With no Continuous Ignition switch installed, place Start switches of
operating engines to FLIGHT.

Descent Target Airspeed PF
If descent initiated using turn, limit bank angle to 40° and roll wings level at
least 10 knots prior to reaching descent speed. If descent initiated with
wings level, lower nose smoothly to avoid negative g’s. Keep aircraft in
trim.
DESCENT TO 10,000 FEET OR MEA, WHICHEVER IS HIGHER
At 2,000 ft above desired altitude, start reducing rate of descent smoothly.
At 1,000 ft above desired altitude start lowering speed brakes as required
to control airspeed at level off.
Speedbrakes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . DETENT PF
Altimeters . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . SET & X-CHKD ALL

************************************************
Note: The normal battery level should be 75% prior to the first flight of
the day and 50% + 10% of flight time for subsequent flights. Any
time an EFB battery falls below these levels, the EFB backup
battery can be used.
If EFB indicates 20% remaining battery life:
> If less than 45 minutes of flight time remain on current flight
leg:
• END
> If more than 45 minutes of flight time remain on current flight
leg:
• Connect EFB to EFB backup battery source for the
remainder of the flight
• END
If EFB indicates 10% remaining battery life (LOW BATTERY
warning):
> If less than 30 minutes of flight time remain on current flight
leg:
• END
> If more than 30 minutes of flight time remain on current flight
leg:
• Connect EFB to EFB backup battery source for the
remainder of the flight
• END
Note: Any time the backup battery is used, it must be recharged as soon
as practical so it is readily available for use again.
