Embodiments as disclosed herein provide a car operation panel (30) for commanding travel of an elevator car (10) from a boarding landing to a destination landing during normal operation of an elevator system. The car operation panel (30) has a plurality of car operation switches (32, 34, 56, 58, 60) to be operated by a passenger from inside of the elevator car (10) during normal operation of the elevator system. The car operation panel (30) is mechanically convertible such as to switch the car operation panel (30) from a first configuration corresponding to the normal operation mode to a second configuration corresponding to an inspection and maintenance operation mode. The car operation panel (30), when switched to the second configuration, allows manual control of the elevator car (10) to travel in up direction and/or in down direction by operating at least a part of the car operation switches (56, 58, 60) of the car operation panel (30). |
