  2. The gauge must show at least 50 kPa
  3. The system must reach the manufacturer's specified minimum operating pressure (typically shown on a green zone on the gauge)
  4. Air pressure is irrelevant as service brakes engage automatically

Answer: C — The system must reach the manufacturer's specified minimum operating pressure (typically shown on a green zone on the gauge)
