FOLLOWING LEVELS OF OPERATIONAL REVISION STATUS (ORS):

ORS 01, 02, or 04

This ORS level is annunciated in the upper right corner of the Turn-On page each time the KLN

900 system is turned on. While all KLN 900’s with like ORS levels have the same general oper-

ational characteristics as explained in this manual, it is still the pilot's responsibility to review the

aircraft’s KLN 900 Flight Manual Supplement for unique characteristics which may be applicable

to the aircraft’s KLN 900 installation.
