ATR FMA Reset

Does anyone know if there is a simple way to clear the flight mode annunciator on the PFD during turnaround? I’ve never seen a plane without this capability and the only way I managed to do it in the ATR was to switch to cold and dark state and back.

AP quick release

Pressing the quick disconnect pushbutton one time disengage AP , one more time turns off aural and visual alert.

Use the Standby button on the autopilot panel

Note that there is a bug, so if you followed an approach which used a vertical flight profile (V-FP) instead of a glideslope(GS), it won’t fully clear

Could you give a little more detail and this works please

Basically, when you press the standby button on the autopilot panel, it fully disable the autopilot and the flight director, clearing the FMA

If you press the button on the yoke, it disconnect the autopilot, but the mode still stay engaged on the FMA and the Flight director will continue to work without the autopilot working
