5.5.13 Emergency Operation
As long as the oxygen control knob is in the ON position, oxygen is available to the
pilot and right pilot seat masks.
If the cabin altitude exceeds 12,750 feet MSL an aural alert; ‘Mask On, Descend!, will
sound every 30 seconds until the cabin altitude descends below 12,500 feet or if the
cabin altitude is descending at 1,800 fpm or greater.
If cabin altitude exceeds 14,000 feet MSL with the oxygen control knob in the ON
position and the passenger oxygen selector in AUTO, the cabin pressure altitude
switch will open the passenger oxygen solenoid valve. When the solenoid valve is
opened, the passenger oxygen manifold is pressurized, causing the pneumatic door
switches to open the doors and deploy the masks.
