    This document provides steps to engage the autopilot on an aircraft. It instructs the user to check circuit breakers and yaw damper functionality, look for any warning flags, verify the flight director is working properly, try both inverters, and check if autopilot or yaw lights illuminate when pressing the autopilot button while holding it. It then lists additional items to check like turn knob and pitch command centers as well as yoke, trim, and disconnect switch positions before repeatedly trying to engage the autopilot while moving the yoke.
