Parking Brake Handle

To apply the Parking Brake, the flight crew pulls this handle and turns it clockwise.

The message "PARK BRK" appears on the ECAM.

To release the Parking Brake, the handle is turned counterclockwise.

Accus Reinflate

If the parking brake hydraulic pressure is low and all the engines are shut down, the ACCUS REINFLATE pb can be used to activate the BLG LEHGS (Body L/G Local Electro-Hydraulic Generation Systems) and reinflate the BLG accumulators.

With initial nominal BLG ACCUS filling, the parking brake is efficient for 12 h.
