Radar Operation in Weather Mode

WARNING: Begin transmitting only when it is safe to do so. When

transmitting while the aircraft is on the ground, no personnel or objects

should be within 11 feet of the antenna.

CAUTION: In Standby mode, the antenna is parked at the center line. It

is always a good idea to put the radar in Standby mode before taxiing the

aircraft to prevent the antenna from bouncing on the bottom stop and

possibly causing damage to the radar assembly.

When the weather radar system is in the Weather or Ground Map mode, the

system automatically switches to Standby mode on landing.
