According to the FlightManual is the best advice.
I remember an accident in the 80ies with a Seaking. They did the check while in FLIGHTDRIVE at 100% NR and not in ACCDRIVE as correct procedure. Due to some ice somewhere in the PRIM system ( the aircraft was parked outside in temps below zero ), all the controls went at their end ( COLL full up etc. ) when the AUX system was switched off, resulting in some expensive noises, but no one was hurt and the good old lady was able to fly again after a long rebuilding session.....
