Intended Use

The autopilot is designed to help a pilot in stable, controllable flight
conditions during cruising. If such conditions are met, the autopilot
can be engaged to take some relief from the pilot, who can perhaps
focus a bit more on ATC communication or to do some navigation
task. Nevertheless, it is still pilot's responsibility to monitor the
autopilot and airplane behavior all the time.
5.2
