Flight Attendants will monitor these announcements and ensure that passengers conduct themselves in accordance with the last announcement. 3. Review this procedure with the In-Charge. 33-03-04: Auto Function inoperative: Normal standard operating procedures are already designed so that the manual function is used for day-to-day operations.

(M) MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES — texte MEL (maintenance ; l’équipage vérifie que c’est fait) :

NOTES: Access to window exits or other emergency exit routes cannot be restricted. In tests conducted at Boeing for the FAA, a sign was considered "readily legible" if enough of the sign could be seen to identify it. For example: “NO SMOK” and “FASTEN SEAT B” would be considered readily legible. Block and placard associated seat or close and lock associated lavatory. 1. If required, install tapes or ropes of conspicuous contrasting colors to block access to unusable seats prior to boarding passengers. 2. Conspicuous signs or placards shall be placed in appropriate locations to indicate seats which are not to be occupied by passengers. 3. For an associated lavatory, close and lock the lavatory door. 4. Advise Dispatch if seats are blocked. Loading will be affected.
