Narrative:
Overshot altitude by 200 to 300 ft; then returned to published altitude. Caused by high vertical speed when autoplt engaged; and not quickly decreasing the rate with control knob. In the process; disabled altitude capture function. It is a normal procedure to engage the autoplt then decrease rate of climb. The situation was exasperated by a very light aircraft and low altitude level off (1500 ft).

Title: CL604 CREW DEPARTING TEB EXCEEDS 1500 FT ALT RESTR ON TEB 5 SID.
Narrative: OVERSHOT ALT BY 200 TO 300 FT; THEN RETURNED TO PUBLISHED ALT. CAUSED BY HIGH VERTICAL SPEED WHEN AUTOPLT ENGAGED; AND NOT QUICKLY DECREASING THE RATE WITH CTL KNOB. IN THE PROCESS; DISABLED ALT CAPTURE FUNCTION. IT IS A NORMAL PROC TO ENGAGE THE AUTOPLT THEN DECREASE RATE OF CLB. THE SITUATION WAS EXASPERATED BY A VERY LIGHT ACFT AND LOW ALT LEVEL OFF (1500 FT).
