Front 46

Customer Call to Flight Attendant

Back 46

The Flight Attendant call button is located on the underside of each passenger service unit. To call a Flight Attendant, the customer pushes the call button which illuminates the button in the PSU and the blue master call light located overhead in the forward and/or aft lowered ceiling. A one-toned chime sounds over the public address system. Customer to Flight Attendant calls are cancelled by pressing the button on the customer service unit. The blue call light will be extinguished when all buttons are reset.

The light remains on until the reset button is pressed at either Flight Attendant Control Panels. The Flight Attendants may talk to one another on the handset by depressing the push-to-talk button.

Front 51

Lighting
Customer Cabin Lighting

Back 51

General illumination of the customer cabin is provided by fluorescent lights in each overhead ceiling panel and above the upper portion of each window panel.
The fluorescent ceiling and window light intensity may be selected as either BRIGHT or DIM. In addition to the fluorescent lights, incandescent night lights are located in the ceiling area to provide a low level of illumination for night flights. All cabin window and ceiling lights are controlled from the forward Flight Attendant's panel.
If external power is connected to the airplane but is not being used by the pilots, a switch on the forward Flight Attendant's panel remarked "ground service" may be used to provide a power source for cabin lighting

Front 52

Entry Lights

Back 52

The forward and aft entry areas are illuminated for boarding and departing by incandescent and fluorescent lights in the ceiling, and a threshold light near the door. A switch for the entry light is located on the respective Flight Attendants panel. Each switch has three positions: OFF, DIM and BRIGHT. Light illuminates the threshold when the respective entry light switch is in the BRIGHT position. The entry lights provide dim illumination when ground power is connected regardless of switch position

Front 53

Lavatory Lights

Back 53

Lavatory lighting consists of one fluorescent mirror light and one dome light in each lavatory. The dome light will be on any time power is on in the airplane. The fluorescent light is controlled by a micro-switch in the door latch. When the door latch is closed, the light will illuminate. When the airplane is on the ground, using external power, the fluorescent light will be on regardless of door position

Front 54

Exit Lights

Back 54

In addition to the normal illumination, exit lights are provided in the forward and aft lowered ceiling, above each entry and galley door, and over each of the exit. In addition, lighting on or near the aisle door ensure illumination of the customer escape path. These lights are normally off and will illuminate if a loss of airplane power occurs or when the emergency light switch is activated. These lights are powered by self-contained batteries.

Front 55

Galley Lights

Back 55

Galley lighting for the forward or aft galley is provided by either fluorescent or incandescent lights beside or above the work area, these are controlled by a switch usually located beside the circuit breaker on the galley. Some aft galleys have additional lighting in the ceiling overhead. This is controlled by a switch beside the water gauge indicator pressurization galley door.

Front 56

Air Conditioning and Pressurization

Back 56

the air which is used for air conditioning and pressurization is supplied by the engines. The auxiliary power unit can also be used to supply air. Air entering the engines or APU is compressed to a high level before it is mixed with fuel and ignited. During compression, the temperature is controlled either automatically or manually by controls on the pilot's overhead panel.

Front 57

Distribution

Back 57

Air flows into the customer cabin through two completely separate compartments.
Conditioned air enters the cabin by way of sidewall ducts to a slotted overhead duct running 70% of the cabin. Part of this air enters the cabin through grills in the light fixtures at either end of the overhead duct.
Air also enters the cabin through individually controlled outlets in the customer service units and in the lavatories. This air is taken from the cold air side of the air conditioning system and is always colder than the main cabin temperature.
Air exits the cabin through floor level grills in the cabin sidewalls and through vents in the galleys and lavatories. As the air leaves the main cabin, it is routed around the cargo compartments to heat them and out the outflow valves. This process completely exchanges cabin air with outside, fresh air, every 2-3 minutes in all of our aircraft.

Front 58

Forward AirStairs

Back 58

The airstairs provide ground access for customer boarding and deploying. The stairs are cased in the body of the airplane directly under the forward entry door and may be operated from either the inside or outside control panel. (Aircraft may or may not be outfitted with an airstair unit.)

Front 59

Airstair Operation

Back 59

The interior control panel is located above and to the left of the forward entry door. Operation of the stairs from this position requires that the entry door be opened far enough to provide good visibility of the area below. The open door also releases the airstairs door back pin. This lock pin prevents inadvertent operation of the airstairs while in flight.
