MODE REVERSIONS<br />
If within 5 s after the reversion to V/S (or FPA) the flight crew does not confirm the altitude target<br />
change by:<br />
‐ Pulling the ALT knob, or<br />
‐ Setting a new V/S (or FPA) target, or<br />
‐ Pushing the ALT pb on the FCU,<br />
then, a triple click aural warning sounds, and the V/S (or FPA) is boxed white for additional 10 s.<br />
Applicable to: MSN 0014-0043<br />
REVERSION - SPEED PROTECTIONS<br />
AUTOMATIC SPEED MODE PROTECTION IN CLIMB<br />
FDs are engaged in an OPEN mode in climb with AP not engaged.<br />
If FDs are engaged in CLIMB, or OPEN CLIMB mode and the flight crew does not follow the FD<br />
bars to maintain the commanded climb (pitch too low and autothrust in maximum climb thrust), the<br />
aircraft accelerates.<br />
Both FDs disengage when VMAX+4 is reached (VMAX being VMO, VLE or VFE). If the A/THR is<br />
active, it reverts to SPEED mode and reduces the thrust to recover the speed target.<br />
