automatically display the maintenance pages after the multicolor test pattern is
removed.
NOTE:
The maintenance pages can also be activated if the TAWS/RWS flight
deck self-test pushbutton/switch is activated for 3 or more seconds
either during the standard self-test or within 5 seconds after the
standard self-test has completed.
● Once in the maintenance pages as shown in Figure 6-14, the T
