MANUAL ARRANGEMENT AND NUMBERING SYSTEM
The Maintenance Manual is divided into chapters and groups of chapters. Each group and every chapter has a tab
provided for ease of location. The chapterization separates the manual into the primary functions and systems of
the airplane. The chapters are further divided into sections and subjects to provide for subsystem and individual
unit breakout. Each chapter, section and subject is identified by an assigned number. Each page carries the
assigned subject number, page number, page code and the revision date.

In addition, the Power Plant chapters are issued in a self-contained set or sets (as applicable, if you have more
than one engine type in your model fleet). These pages are further identified by an engine sub-logo, for example
PW2000 SERIES ENGINES or RB211-535 SERIES ENGINES, placed to the right of the Maintenance Manual logo at
the top of the page. The numbering system is described in detail in the paragraphs that follow.
Chapter Numbering
Chapterization of the maintenance manual has provided a functional breakdown of the entire airplane. The chapter
breakdown numbering system uses a three element number (XX-XX-XX). It provides for dividing the material into
Chapters, Sections, and Subjects.

The three elements of the indicator each contain two digits.

For example:



Chapter Numbering (Continued):

The chapter number (1st element) and the first number of the section number (2nd element) are assigned by ATA
Specification No. 100. Material which is applicable to a system as a whole uses zeros in the 2nd and 3rd elements
of the numbers. That is, the chapter number followed by "-00-00".

For example:

AMM 22-00-00/001 (Auto Flight) is used for general description information which provides an outline breakdown
of the sections in the chapter.
Effectivity and Configuration Numbering
On each page, there is effectivity data at the lower, inner margin (Fig. 1). When a page applies to all airplanes, the
word ALL is in the effectivity block. If the data does not apply to all airplanes, then the effectivity will be one of
these types:

1. Physical description - A description of the differences that you can see.

When a physical description is used, a reference to the applicable service bulletin and PRR (production
change) are provided when that is possible. This is done primarily for the benefit of airline engineering,
and maintenance planning groups.

For example: AIRPLANES WITH VALVE INSTALLED AWAY FROM THE FILTER (POST-SB 28A-17 OR
PRR 54009) AIRPLANES WITH VALVE INSTALLED NEAR THE FILTER (PRE-SB 28A-17)

2. Component dash number - The last digits of the identification number that are on an electrical box.

3. Airplane effectivity numbers - The airline three-letter code, and the numbers or letters that Boeing and
each airline agreed on to identify each airplane. If the effectivity is applicable to all subsequent airplanes,
the last digits will be 999.

For example: 205-999 indicates airplane 205 and all subsequent airplanes.

Each paragraph can have an effectivity. Each effectivity is in upper-case letters, on the first line of the
paragraph.





Effectivity and Configuration Numbering (Continued):

When effectivity differences are extensive and the preceding method becomes cumbersome and distracting from
the continuity of subject matter, new page blocks are created. These added page blocks are identified by the
addition of a configuration code (CONFIG) immediately above the page number. A previously issued page block is
re-issued to incorporate the configuration code as shown in Fig. 1. Configuration codes are issued at page block
level only. They are usually used when a change to the airplane results in a major change to the manual.
Configuration codes are typically used when there are multiple configurations of page block applicable to a
customer's fleet.

In some instances, you can have CONFIGs that are provided as place holders. These procedures will be indicated
as "NOT USED" in the effectivity block in the lower left corner of the page (Fig. 1).

For the effectivity information in the power plant (70 series) chapters of the manual, two situations can exist. The
word ALL placed in the effectivity block on a page means that the page pertains to either all airplanes or all
engines, whichever the case may be. When the effectivity is limited to a system or component that remains with
the airplane during the power plant replacement, the effectivity is expressed in a manner described in the
preceding paragraphs. When a manual section, page, step or illustration is limited to an engine type or component,
the effectivity is given using the engine model, physical difference, or part number.

The word "ALL" in the effectivity block on a page means that the page pertains to all airplanes (if you have only
one engine type in your model fleet) or 2) All engines (if you have multiple engine types in your model fleet),
whichever the case may be.
Page Numbering
Each page block has its own page numbers. The page numbers are in the lower right corner of each page. The
page blocks categorize the tasks that they contain. The page blocks are defined by ATA Specification 100:

NOMENCLATURE PAGE BLOCK
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (D&O) 1 to 99
FAULT ISOLATION (FI) 101 to 199
MAINTENANCE PRACTICES (MP) 201 to 299
SERVICING (SRV) 301 to 399
REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (R/I) 401 to 499
ADJUSTMENT/TEST (A/T) 501 to 599
INSPECTION/CHECK (I/C) 601 to 699
CLEANING/PAINTING (C/P) 701 to 799
APPROVED REPAIRS (AR) 801 to 899

When it is convenient for the user to have different types of tasks in one page block, MAINTENANCE PRACTICES,
the 201-to-299 page block, is used.

elevators, flaps, ailerons, spoilers, leading edge devices, and equivalent components has a different zone
number.

A three-digit number identifies the major zones, sub-zones, and zones as follows:

1. Major Zone - the first digit is a number from 1 to 8 followed by two zeroes
2. Sub-zone - the first digit represents the major zone, the second digit is a number from 1 to 6 or 9, and
the third digit is a zero
3. Zone - the first two digits represent the sub-zone number and the third digit shows a component or
group of components that are in the sub-zone

SERVICE INTERPHONE SYSTEM
The service interphone system provides facilities for interphone communication between servicing stations
during ground operations. In addition, communication is extended to the flight compartment and attendant
stations.

The service interphone system includes phone jacks located at convenient service locations around the airplane.
The system also includes amplifiers and mixing circuits that are housed inside the audio accessory unit. It is
located on shelf E4 of the main equipment center. The SERV INTPH switch activates the system and is located
on the right sidewall panel, P61.

The system gets power from the 28-volts DC battery bus, through a circuit breaker on overhead panel P11.
Component Details
Audio Amplifier
Two identical audio amplifiers with parallel inputs are located in the audio accessory unit on shelf E4-3 in the
main equipment center. The amplifiers are used by both the service interphone and the cabin interphone
systems. A placard on the audio accessory unit identifies and locates the two amplifiers. There are two outputs
from each amplifier. One output goes to the cabin interphone audio on the audio selector panels. The other
output goes to the cabin interphone handsets and service interphone jacks. The amplifiers have internal
adjustments preset for normal compression, squelch, and volume.

Service Interphone Switch
The SERV INTPH switch is located on right sidewall panel P61. In the ON position, the switch connects the
microphone lines from the service interphone jacks to the input of the interphone amplifiers. The OFF position
disconnects the microphone lines to isolate the service interphone jacks during flight.




Operation

The INTERPHONE CABIN SERVICE circuit breaker on overhead panel P11 controls power to the system.

The SERV INTPH switch on panel P61 connects the mic lines from the phone jacks to the input of the interphone
amplifiers. This switch activates the service interphone system. Then the interphone amplifiers distribute the
amplified audio to the audio selector panels in the flight compartment, as well as to the cabin handsets, and to
the audio line of the service interphone jacks located at convenient service locations. All microphone inputs from
the handsets and from the audio selector panels mixes with that of the service interphone jacks onto a single-
party system.

The flight crew talks with the service interphone stations by pushing the MIC SELECTOR labeled CAB on the
audio selector panels. This switch, along with the SERV INTPH switch on panel P61, connects a flight crew
headset to the service interphone system. On the audio selector panel, the CAB switch is a push-on/push-off
type and is lighted when on. The same knob also turns a volume control for that particular station.

Personnel at the cabin attendant stations use the service interphone system by picking up the attendant handset
and talking.

Personnel at service locations use the service interphone system by plugging a headset into the phone jack and
talking. First, the SERV INTPH switch must be set to ON.

Control
To place the system in operation, supply electrical power. On overhead panel P11, make sure the INTERPHONE
CABIN SERVICE circuit breaker is closed. On right sidewall panel P61, make sure the SERV INTPH switch is on.




Cabin Interphone System
The cabin interphone system provides facilities for interphone communication among cabin attendants, and
between the flight compartment crewmembers and attendants. The cabin interphone system microphone circuits
can be switched to the input of the passenger address (PA) system to permit announcements.
Cabin Interphone Handsets
Each attendant station has a handset. Each handset has the following components: a noise-canceling microphone
to decrease the input of airplane noise, a small speaker to listen, buttons to operate the handset, and a magnet-
operated hook switch to disconnect the handset from the system when the attendant places the handset back on
the hook.

In operation, 4 of the handset buttons call specific stations (FWD, MID, AFT, PILOT). The P.A. button connects
the handset to the passenger address speakers to make announcements. The RESET button permits the
attendant to make more calls without the need to put the handset back on the hook after each call. The button
operates the same as when the handset is put on the hook. The ALERT button connects the handset to all
stations at the same time. The P.A. PUSH TO TALK switch momentarily connects the microphone to transmit
voice during passenger announcements.
Pilots Call Panel
The pilots' call panel is on overhead panel P5. The cabin interphone system connects to the pilots' call panel
through three blue lighted call switches which indicate an attendant call (FWD, MID, AFT), and one blue lighted
call switch that indicates an alert call (ALERT).

The call switches (FWD, MID, AFT) are used to signal the related attendant station. The ALERT call switch is
used to make an alert call.
Operation
Cabin interphone calling from one station to another is done by single-digit dialing. Pressing a call switch on a
handset activates the system by sending two tones to the audio accessory unit. The tones are processed in the
accessory unit and a signal is provided to the called station to turn on the call light. A signal is also sent to the
PA system to generate a hi/lo chime for attendant calls or to the aural warning system to generate a hi chime in
the flight compartment for pilot calls.

The FWD, MID, AFT, and ALERT call switches on the pilots' call panel make it possible for the pilot to make and
receive cabin interphone calls. The light in each call switch comes on when there is an incoming call and go off
when the pilot pushes the switch. Power failures will automatically connect the microphones of the cabin
interphone handsets to the PA system.





Operation (Continued):

The controller in the audio accessory unit monitors busy stations, and prevents incoming calls when a called
station is busy. The controller also activates the PA hi/lo chime output, and causes the lamp driver to turn on
the attendant call light. Attendant to attendant calling can be accomplished except under the following
conditions:

1. Calls can not be placed between the two mid attendant stations
2. Any station that has a handset off hook cannot be called
3. No station can call another station that has been called but not answered; however, the station that
placed the call can repeat the call
4. Only one call can be made from a handset without first performing a reset

Any attendant can call the pilot. Multiple calls by attendants to the pilot are possible. After a call, the attendant
must put the handset back on the hook (cradle) or push the RESET switch to reset the unit. When the attendant
at the called station removes the handset from the hook, a magnetic switch closes and connects the microphone
to the system.

Control
To place the system in operation, supply electrical power. On overhead panel P11, make sure the INTERPHONE
CABIN SERVICE circuit breaker is closed.
