I wasn't talking about using lvl chng on final approach but in general. Although some landings are like are like if i pressed lvl chng! ha ha!
However straight from the manual look at the last point and the word armed.
Moving the A/T Arm switch to ARM, arms the A/T for engagement in the N1,
MCP SPD or FMC SPD mode. The A/T Arm switch is magnetically held at ARM
and releases to OFF when the A/T becomes disengaged.
A general summary of A/T mode engagement is as follows:
• A/T SPD or N1 modes automatically engage when AFDS command pitch
modes become engaged
• engaging LVL CHG or VNAV climb modes automatically engages the
A/T N1 mode
• engaging LVL CHG or VNAV descent modes automatically engages the
A/T in RETARD and then ARM when thrust is at idle
• if not in a VNAV mode, engagement of ALT ACQ or ALT HOLD
automatically engages the A/T in the MCP SPD mode; otherwise the A/T
remains in FMC SPD
• engagement of G/S capture automatically engages the A/T in the MCP
SPD mode
• alpha floor automatically engages the A/T when armed.
