Pressing the CWS Button and hand-flying the aircraft does not reset any reference data while in Backcourse Mode. The autopilot guides the aircraft back to the Selected Course when the CWS Button is released. Level Mode (LVL) Level (LVL) mode becomes active only as a function of Electronic Stability and Protection (ESP). Refer to the Additional Features section for a detailed discussion of the optional ESP feature. When the normal flight envelope thresholds have been exceeded for more than 50% of the last 20 seconds, Level mode is activated. The autopilot will engage and provide input to bring the aircraft back into straight and level flight based on zero degrees roll angle and zero feet per minute vertical speed. An aural "ENGAGING AUTOPILOT" alert sounds and the lateral and vertical flight director annunciations will display "LVL". The AFCS will remain in Level mode until the pilot selects another mode. 190-01263-01 Rev. A Garmin G2000 Pilot's Guide for the Cessna T240 465 APPENDICES INDEX
