Where to study it
FAA source
14 CFR Part 91, 14 CFR 91.519, Passenger briefing
Before your checkride (14 CFR 61.39)
A code on your test report is an area of deficiency. An authorized instructor must review it with you and endorse that review before you take the practical test, and the examiner may revisit it during the oral. Study it until you can explain it out loud, not just recognize the answer.
