Reversionary display mode can also be manually
activated by the pilot if the system fails to detect a display
problem. The reversionary mode is activated manually
by pressing the red DISPLAY BACKUP button on the
bottom of the audio panel (GMA 1347). Pressing the red
DISPLAY BACKUP button again deactivates reversionary
mode.
