for pilot right panel for observer - Only the TEL button is interconnected
- May need to use manual squelch on right panel for
good MIC opening - It is possible with two panels to transmit on two
VHF radios simultaneously but you should not do
so. Critical communication may be blocked - Simultaneous transmission on VHF and CAP FM is OK

39Note for Observers
- PFD is hands-off area for Observers
- MFD is community property
- Changing Frequencies on the MFD changes those on
PFD as wellthis requires coordination!! - When Pilot switches audio selections, Observer
must notice and make corresponding change or he
will miss what pilot is transmitting
40Notes for Observers
- All navigation changes (Direct To, Flight Plan,
etc.), must be coordinated with pilot before
change is made - When primary flight instruments appear on MFD,
either a failure has occurred or the pilot has
pressed the Reversionary button on his audio
panel - When this happens, let pilot decide what to do
next
41Display Cleaning
- Try not to touch the displays with fingers
- When displays must be cleaned, use only dedicated
micro-fiber wipe cloth - Do NOT use cleanersuse only the micro-fiber
cloth - Cleaning before each flight is recommended
- Clean gentlydo not press hard on screen
