Subtask 12-31-10-660-090-C ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL WARNING:
MAKE SURE THAT THE TRAVEL RANGES OF THE FLIGHT CONTROLS SURFACES ARE CLEAR. MOVEMENT OF FLIGHT CONTROLS CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
(1) Flight-controls preparation requirements: (a) If the turnaround time is less than 90 minutes (1.5 hours), it is not necessary to do the flight controls preparation.
(b) If the turnaround time is equal to or more than 90 minutes (1.5 hours), you must do the flight controls preparation.
(2) Flight controls preparation:
(a) Make sure that there is no ice, snow, slush or frost on the critical flight surfaces (wings, vertical and horizontal stabilizers and rudder).
(b) On overhead panel 20VU, on the ADIRS CDU:
- Set the three OFF/NAV/ATT selector switches to NAV.
- Push the FLT CTL/ELAC 1, FLT CTL/SEC 1 and FAC 1 pushbutton switches (the OFF and FAULT legends of these pushbutton switches go off).
- Push the FLT CTL/ELAC 2, FLT CTL/SEC 2, FLT CTL/SEC 3 and FAC 2 pushbutton switches (the OFF and FAULT legends of these pushbutton switches go off).
NOTE: The time necessary for the computer start is 2 minutes.
NOTE: If the computer disengages during the flight controls preparation, reset the applicable computer (ELAC, SEC or FAC) and do the preparation again with slower control surface order rates.
(3) Slowly move the flight controls from stop to stop for a minimum of 5 minutes, in this sequence: (a) Move the CAPT (F/O) side stick from stop to stop in pitch. On the lower ECAM display unit, on the FLT CTL page, make sure that the elevators move.
(b) Move the CAPT (F/O) side stick from stop to stop in roll. On the lower ECAM display unit, on the FLT CTL page, make sure that the ailerons move and that the spoilers (2, 3, 4, and 5) extend.
(4) On overhead panel 24VU:
- Release the FLT CTL/ELAC 2 pushbutton switch (the OFF legend of this pushbutton switch comes on).
(6) On overhead panel 24VU:
- Push the FLT CTL/ELAC 2 pushbutton switch (the OFF and FAULT legends of this pushbutton switch go off).
- Release the FLT CTL/ELAC 1 pushbutton switch (the OFF legends of this pushbutton switch come on).

On the lower ECAM display unit, on the FLT CLT page, make sure that the rudder moves.
(11) Manually set the pitch-trim control wheel from full nose up to full nose down, then set the pitch-trim control wheel to zero.
(12) Do the operational test of the Green and Yellow yaw dampers (Ref. AMM TASK 22-63-00-710-001).
(13) On overhead panel 23VU:
- Push the FLT CTL/ELAC 1 pushbutton switch (the OFF and FAULT legends of this pushbutton switch go off).
(15) On overhead panel 23VU, release and push the FLT CLT/ELAC 1 pushbutton switch to do a reset of the pitch trim.
(16) Make sure that the pitch-trim control wheel automatically moves to 0°.
(17) On the nosewheel steering handwheel, push the pedal disconnection pushbutton and move the rudder trim from 5 degrees to -5 degrees. On the center pedestal, on panel 408VU, push the RUD TRIM/RESET pushbutton switch to set the rudder to neutral.
