Allow missile to track independently: which action allows this?

Explanation:
The key idea is that the seeker must be released from its safety restraint to operate autonomously. Pressing and holding the uncage bar frees the seeker from being locked in place, allowing it to move, search, and lock onto a target so the guidance system can track it on its own. Without uncaging, the seeker stays restrained and cannot perform independent tracking even if power is applied. Spinning the seeker doesn’t empower tracking by itself, and toggling auto-tracking or power cycling won’t enable autonomous tracking until the seeker is uncaged and ready.
