Red,

You must be looking at a 3A/R book. One of the main difference between the 600/601-1A and the 601-3A/3R variant of the CL600 is the autopilot. The 600/601-1A autopilot needs to be engaged on the ground for pre-flight test purposes and was therefore not connected to the WOW system. The 601-3A/R test is totaly internal and needs no engagement, so they connected it to the WOW system and prevented engagement on the ground.
