The canopy can be opened/closed manually or using the EFB tablet ‘Canopy’ button. It will be automatically opened when selecting the ‘Ready for Takeoff’ state and closed when selecting either the ‘Ready for Start’ or ‘Cold and Dark’ states.

To manually open/close the canopy, move the operating lever (located on the left side of the canopy) to the aft/unlocked position and then click on either the canopy grab handle or MDC firing handle.

See pages 52, 92 and 97 of the manual for more information.
