AUTOPILOT OUT-OF-TRIM

Yellow [RUD→], [←RUD], [←AIL], [AIL→], [↑ELE], or [↓ELE]
Do not attempt to overpower the autopilot in
the event of a mistrim. The autopilot servos
will oppose pilot input and, in the case of
the pitch axis, will trim the elevator in the
opposite direction to the pilot input. This
could lead to a significant out-of-trim condi-
tion.

1. Slip/Skid Indicator . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .VERIFY CENTER
2. Fuel Imbalance . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CHECK
(max. allowable = 15 Gal. or ~1.6 divisions on indicator)
