PASSENGER ADDRESS AND ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS
Passenger Address System
The passenger address (PA) system enables the pilots and flight attendants to address passengers through speakers in the passenger compartment and lavatories. Selector switches are provided in the cockpit which permit pilots to monitor flight attendant PA announcements.
Handsets, installed in the flight compartment and at each of the flight attendants’ stations, are used to make announcement over the PA system. A VU meter, located on the cockpit overhead panel and the forward and aft flight attendants’ panels, provides an indicator of PA audio output level.
Since the speakers and handsets are common to both the PA system and the passenger entertainment system, a priority sequence is installed. The priority sequence (listed in order of priority) is as follows: pilots’ PA announcements, flight attendants’ PA announcements, recorded emergency oxygen mask announcements (if installed), recorded announcements (if installed), and passenger entertainment. The forward flight attendant’s station has priority over the mid and aft attendants’ stations. The mid and aft attendants’ station have equal priority.
Flight attendant PA announcements can be initiated from any cabin panel by removing the handset from its hanger, pushing the ANNOUNCE button, and speaking into the microphone. The speaker at the forward flight attendant’s station is muted to prevent feedback through the handset microphone whenever that handset is used for PA system transmission.
Recorded announcements can be initiated from the automatic announcement control panel (if installed), at the forward flight attendant’s station.
A recorded emergency oxygen mask announcement is automatically initiated (if installed), when a cabin depressurization occurs (cabin pressure altitude exceeds 14,000 feet). The audio level of the recorded oxygen announcement (stored on Channel A1) is preset to a higher volume than any other recorded announcement. The oxygen announcement cannot be canceled at the automatic announcement control panel, but the announcement can be overridden by use of any PA handset microphone. The recorded oxygen announcement (if installed), can be initiated by manual operation of the oxygen eject switch located in the cockpit.

Passenger Entertainment System
Boarding and deboarding music, played over the passenger address system speakers, provides a pleasing background while passengers are boarding or leaving the airplane. The music is turned on and off and the volume is controlled by operation of the MUSIC ON / OFF volume control located on the forward flight attendant’s control panel. A VU meter, located on the cockpit overhead panel and the forward and aft flight attendants’ panels, provides an indication of passenger entertainment system audio output level.
Note: PA and passenger entertainment system volume level is automatically boosted when airplane is in flight mode.

In addition, the forward cargo compartment has a fan and heater assembly to assist in maintaining the forward portion of the cargo compartment liner above freezing temperatures. The mid cargo compartment is provided with a fan to circulate ambient air.
The forward cargo compartment, forward of the cargo door, is suitable for transporting live animals.
