Read this POH carefully. It provides operational procedures that will assure the operator obtains the performance published in the manual, data designed to allow the most efficient use of the airplane, and basic information for maintaining the airplane in a “like new” condition. • Note • All limitations, procedures, maintenance & servicing requirements, and performance data contained in this POH are mandatory for compliance with FAA operating rules and for continued airworthiness of the airplane. This POH includes the material required to be furnished to the pilot by the Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) and additional information provided by Cirrus Design Corporation and constitutes the FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual for the aircraft. Revision 1 Front Matter-2 P/N 13772-005 Front Matter Cirrus Design Foreword SR22T The Pilot’s Operating Handbook This Pilot’s Operating Handbook has been prepared using GAMA Specification #1 for Pilot’s Operating Handbook, Revision 2, dated 18 October 1996 as the content model and format guide. However, some deviations from this specification were made for clarity. The POH is presented in loose-leaf form for ease in inserting revisions and is sized for convenient storage. Tabbed dividers throughout the POH allow quick reference to each section. Logical and convenient Tables of Contents are located at the beginning of each section to aid in locating specific data within that section. The POH is divided into ten sections as follows: Section 1................................................................................... General Section 2...............................................................................Limitations Section 3.......................................................... Emergency Procedures Section 3A .......................................................... Abnormal Procedures Section 4................................................................. Normal Procedures Section 5...................................................................Performance Data Section 6...........................................Weight & Balance/Equipment List Section 7............................................................... Systems Description Section 8........................................ Handling, Servicing & Maintenance Section 9........................................................................... Supplements Section 10.................................................................Safety Information The data presented in this POH is the result of extensive flight tests and is approved by the Federal Aviation Administration. However, as new procedures or performance data are developed, the POH will be revised. • Note • It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that the Pilot’s Operating Handbook is current at all times. Therefore, it is very important that all revisions be properly incorporated into this POH as soon as they are available. Revision 1 Cirrus Design Front Matter SR22T Foreword P/N 13772-005 Front Matter-3 P/N 13772-005 Front Matter-3 Revising the Pilot’s Operating Handbook Two types of revisions may be issued for this POH: Temporary and Numbered. Temporary revisions are printed on yellow paper, normally cover only one topic or procedure, and are issued to provide safety related information or other time sensitive information where the rigor of providing a numbered revision is not possible in the time allowed. All the information needed to properly file a temporary revision is included on the revision itself. Typically, a temporary revision is superseded and replaced by the next numbered revision. Numbered revisions are printed on white paper, normally cover several subjects, and are issued as general updates to the POH. Each numbered revision includes an “Instruction Sheet,” a “List of Effective Pages”, and a “Revision Highlights” page. The “Instruction Sheet” is intended to assist the manual holder in removing superseded pages and inserting new or superseding pages. The “List of Effective Pages” shows the issue or revision status of all pages in the POH. The “Revision Highlights” page gives a brief description of changes made to each page in the current revision. Identifying Revised Material Each page in the POH has revision identification at the lower inside corner opposite the page number. Original issue pages will be identified by the words “Original Issue” at this location. In the event that the majority of pages in the POH are revised, Cirrus may determine that it is more effective to reissue the POH. Reissued pages will be identified by the word “Reissue” followed by a letter indicating the reissue level; for example, “Reissue A” Revised pages will be identified by the word “Revision” followed by the revision number at this location; for example, “Revision 2” (Original Issue, Revision 2) or “Revision B1” (Reissue B, Revision 1). Revised material on a page can be identified by a change bar located at the outside page margin. Revision bars are not used at reissues of the POH. Revision 1 Front Matter-4 P/N 13772-005 Front Matter Cirrus Design Foreword SR22T Revisions to the Pilot’s Operating Handbook POH revisions, temporary revisions, and supplements can be downloaded from Cirrus Design at www.cirrusaircraft.com, or from the Authorized Service Center website. Paper copies of POH revisions and supplements can be purchased from Cirrus Connection at www.cirrusconnection.com. • Note • If at any time it is found that the POH is not current, temporary revisions are missing, or applicable supplements are not included, contact Cirrus Design. Supplements The Supplements section (Section 9) of this POH contains FAA Approved Supplements necessary to safely and efficiently operate the airplane when equipped with optional equipment not provided with the standard airplane or not included in the POH. Supplements are essentially “mini-handbooks” and may contain data corresponding to most sections of the POH. Data in a supplement either adds to, supersedes, or replaces similar data in the basic POH. Section 9 includes a “Log of Supplements” page preceding all Cirrus Design Supplements produced for this airplane. The “Log of Supplements” page can be utilized as a “Table of Contents” for Section 9. If the airplane is modified at a non Cirrus Design facility through an STC or other approval method, it is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the proper supplement, if applicable, is installed in the POH and that the supplement is properly recorded on the “Log of Supplements” page. FAA Approved POH Supplements must be in the airplane for flight operations when the subject optional equipment is installed or the special operations are to be performed. Retention of Data In the event a new title page is issued, the weight and balance data changes, the equipment list changes, or the “Log of Supplements” is replaced, the owner must ensure that all information applicable to the airplane is transferred to the new pages and the aircraft records are current. It is not a requirement that owners retain information, such as supplements, that is not applicable to their airplane. Revision 1 Cirrus Design Front Matter SR22T Foreword P/N 13772-005 Front Matter-5 P/N 13772-005 Front Matter-5 In the event a new POH is purchased, the owner must ensure that all information applicable to the airplane is transferred to the new POH and the aircraft records are current. Warnings, Cautions, and Notes Warnings, Cautions, and Notes are used throughout this POH to focus attention on special conditions or procedures as follows: • WARNING • Warnings are used to call attention to operating procedures which, if not strictly observed, may result in personal injury or loss of life. • Caution • Cautions are used to call attention to operating procedures which, if not strictly observed, may result in damage to equipment. • Note • Notes are used to highlight specific operating conditions or steps of a procedure.

Calibrated airspeed is equal to true airspeed in standard atmosphere at sea level. KIAS Knots Indicated Airspeed is the speed shown on the airspeed indicator. The IAS values published in this handbook assume no instrument error. KTAS Knots True Airspeed is the airspeed expressed in knots relative to undisturbed air which is KCAS corrected for altitude and temperature. V G Best Glide Speed is the speed at which the greatest flight distance is attained per unit of altitude lost with power off. V O Operating Maneuvering Speed is the maximum speed at which application of full control movement will not overstress the airplane. V FE Maximum Flap Extended Speed is the highest speed permissible with wing flaps in a prescribed extended position. V NO Maximum Structural Cruising Speed is the speed that should not be exceeded except in smooth air, and then only with caution. V NE Never Exceed Speed is the speed that may not be exceeded at any time. V PD Maximum Demonstrated Parachute Deployment Speed is the maximum speed at which parachute deployment has been demonstrated. V REF Landing reference speed or threshold crossing speed. V S Stalling Speed is minimum steady flight speed at which the aircraft is controllable. Original Issue 1-10 P/N 13772-005 Section 1 Cirrus Design General SR22T Meteorological Terminology V S 50% Stalling Speed is minimum steady flight speed at which the aircraft is controllable with 50% flaps. V SO Stalling Speed is the minimum steady flight speed at which the aircraft is controllable in the landing configuration (100% flaps) at the most unfavorable weight and balance. V X Best Angle of Climb Speed is the speed at which the airplane will obtain the highest altitude in a given horizontal distance. The best angle-of-climb speed normally increases slightly with altitude. V Y Best Rate of Climb Speed is the speed at which the airplane will obtain the maximum increase in altitude per unit of time. The best rate-of-climb speed decreases slightly with altitude. IMC Instrument Meteorological Conditions are meteorological conditions expressed in terms of visibility, distance from cloud, and ceiling less than the minima for visual flight defined in FAR 91.155. ISA International Standard Atmosphere (standard day) is an atmosphere where (1) the air is a dry perfect gas, (2) the temperature at sea level is 15°C, (3) the pressure at sea level is 29.92 in.Hg (1013.2 millibars), and (4) the temperature gradient from sea level to the altitude at which the temperature is - 56.5°C is -0.00198°C per foot and zero above that altitude. MSL Mean Sea Level is the average height of the surface of the sea for all stages of tide. In this Handbook, altitude given as MSL is the altitude above the mean sea level. It is the altitude read from the altimeter when the altimeter’s barometric adjustment has been set to the altimeter setting obtained from ground meteorological sources. Original Issue Cirrus Design Section 1 SR22T General P/N 13772-005 1-11 P/N 13772-005 1-11 Engine Power Terminology OAT Outside Air Temperature is the free air static temperature obtained from inflight temperature indications or from ground meteorological sources. It is expressed in either degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit. Pressure Altitude Pressure Altitude (PA) is the altitude read from the altimeter when the altimeter’s barometric adjustment has been set to 29.92 in.Hg (1013 mb) corrected for position and instrument error. In this Handbook, altimeter instrument errors are assumed to be zero. Standard Temperature Standard Temperature is the temperature that would be found at a given pressure altitude in the standard atmosphere. It is 15°C (59°F) at sea level pressure altitude and decreases approximately 2°C (3.6°F) for each 1000 feet of altitude increase. See ISA definition. BHP Brake Horsepower is the power developed by the engine. MCP Maximum Continuous Power is the maximum power that can be used continuously. MAP Manifold Pressure is the pressure measured in the engine’s induction system expressed as inches of mercury (in.Hg). RPM Revolutions Per Minute is engine rotational speed. Static RPM Static RPM is RPM attained during a full-throttle engine runup when the airplane is on the ground and stationary. TIT Turbine Inlet Temperature is the temperature measured in front of the first stage turbine nozzle valves. Original Issue 1-12 P/N 13772-005 Section 1 Cirrus Design General SR22T Performance and Flight Planning Terminology Weight and Balance Terminology g One “g” is a quantity of acceleration equal to that of earth’s gravity. Demonstrated Crosswind Velocity Demonstrated Crosswind Velocity is the velocity of the crosswind component for which adequate control of the airplane during taxi, takeoff, and landing was actually demonstrated during certification testing. Demonstrated crosswind is not considered to be limiting. Service Ceiling Service Ceiling is the maximum altitude at which the aircraft at maximum weight has the capability of climbing at a rate of 100 feet per minute. GPH Gallons Per Hour is the amount of fuel (in gallons) consumed by the aircraft per hour. NMPG Nautical Miles Per Gallon is the distance (in nautical miles) which can be expected per gallon of fuel consumed at a specific engine power setting and/or flight configuration. Unusable Fuel Unusable Fuel is the quantity of fuel that cannot be safely used in flight. Usable Fuel Usable Fuel is the fuel available for flight planning. Reference Datum Reference Datum is an imaginary vertical plane from which all horizontal distances are measured for balance purposes. Station Station is a location along the airplane fuselage measured in inches from the reference datum and expressed as a number. For example: A point 123 inches aft of the reference datum is Fuselage Station 123.0 (FS 123). CG Center of Gravity is the point at which an airplane would balance if suspended. Its distance from the reference datum is found by dividing the total moment by the total weight of the airplane. Original Issue Cirrus Design Section 1 SR22T General P/N 13772-005 1-13 P/N 13772-005 1-13 Arm Arm is the horizontal distance from the reference datum to the center of gravity (CG) of an item. The airplane’s arm is obtained by adding the airplane’s individual moments and dividing the sum by the total weight. Moment Moment is the product of the weight of an item multiplied by its arm. Standard Empty Weight Standard Empty Weight is the weight of a standard airplane including unusable fuel, full operating fluids, and full oil Basic Empty Weight Basic Empty Weight is the actual weight of the airplane including all operating equipment that has a fixed location in the airplane. The basic empty weight includes the weight of unusable fuel and full oil. Maximum Ramp Weight Maximum Ramp Weight is the maximum weight approved for ground maneuver and includes the weight of the fuel used for startup, taxi, and run-up. Maximum Gross Weight Maximum Gross Weight is the maximum permissible weight of the airplane and its contents as listed in the aircraft specifications. Maximum Zero Fuel Weight Maximum Zero Fuel Weight is the maximum permissible weight of the airplane and its contents minus the total weight of the fuel onboard. Useful Load Useful Load is the basic empty weight subtracted from the maximum ramp weight. It is the maximum allowable combined weight of pilot, passengers, fuel and baggage. MAC Mean Aerodynamic Chord is the chord drawn through the centroid of the wing plan area. LEMAC Leading Edge of Mean Aerodynamic Chord is the forward edge of MAC given in inches aft of the reference datum (fuselage station). Original Issue 1-14 P/N 13772-005 Section 1 Cirrus Design General SR22T Tare Tare is the weight of all items used to hold or position the airplane on the scales for weighing. Tare includes blocks, shims, and chocks. Tare weight must be subtracted from the associated scale reading.

Although emergencies caused by airplane, systems, or engine malfunctions are extremely rare, the guidelines described in this section should be considered and applied as necessary should an emergency arise. • Note • Emergency procedures associated with optional equipment are not described in this section. Refer to Section 9: Log of Supplements for optional equipment Emergency Procedures. Original Issue 3-4 P/N 13772-005 Section 3 Cirrus Design Emergency Procedures SR22T Emergency Procedures Guidance Although this section provides procedures for handling most emergencies and critical flight situations that could arise in the aircraft, it is not a substitute for proper flight training, thorough knowledge of the airplane, and general aviation techniques. A thorough study of the information in this handbook while on the ground will help you prepare for time-critical situations in the air. CAPS Guidance All Cirrus aircraft are equipped with a pilot or passenger activated ballistic airframe parachute system. The system is capable of lowering the aircraft and occupants safely to the ground for life threatening emergencies. CAPS provides pilots and passengers an alternative means of handling various life threatening emergency situations. In many cases CAPS may offer a safer option for occupants as compared to continued flight or traditional countermeasures. Pilots flying Cirrus aircraft must be properly trained and familiar with CAPS guidance, limitations, and operating procedures. Refer to Section 10, Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS), for CAPS deployment and guidance information. Preflight Planning Enroute emergencies caused by weather can be minimized or eliminated by careful flight planning and good judgment when unexpected weather is encountered. Preflight Inspections/Maintenance In-flight mechanical problems in the aircraft will be extremely rare if proper preflight inspections and maintenance are practiced. Always perform a thorough walk-around Preflight Inspection before any flight to ensure that no damage occurred during the previous flight or while the airplane was on the ground. Pay special attention to any oil leaks or fuel stains that could indicate engine problems. Methodology Aircraft emergencies are very dynamic events. Because of this, it is impossible to address every action a pilot might take to handle a situation. However, four basic actions can be applied to any emergency. They are: Original Issue Cirrus Design Section 3 SR22T Emergency Procedures P/N 13772-005 3-5 P/N 13772-005 3-5 Maintain Aircraft Control — Many minor aircraft emergencies turn into major ones when the pilot fails to maintain aircraft control. Remember, do not panic and do not fixate on a particular problem. Over-attention to a faulty warning light during an instrument approach can lead to a pilot induced unusual attitude and possibly worse. To avoid this, even in an emergency: aviate, navigate, and communicate, in this order. Never let anything interfere with your control of the airplane. Never stop flying. Analyze the Situation — Once you are able to maintain control of the aircraft, assess the situation. Look at the engine parameters. Listen to the engine. Determine what the airplane is telling you. Take Appropriate Action — In most situations, the procedures listed in this section will either correct the aircraft problem or allow safe recovery of the aircraft. Follow them and use good pilot judgment. • Note • In an in-flight emergency, pressing and holding the COM transfer button for 2 seconds will tune the emergency frequency of 121.500 MHz. If the display is available, it will also show it in the “Active” frequency window. The Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) should be activated in the event of a spin. It should also be used in other life-threatening emergencies where CAPS deployment is determined to be safer than continued flight and landing. Refer to Section 10, Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) for CAPS deployment information and landing considerations. Land as soon as Conditions Permit — Once you have handled the emergency, assess your next move. Handle any non-critical “clean-up” items in the checklist and put the aircraft on the ground. Remember, even if the airplane appears to be in sound condition, it may not be. Circuit Breakers Many procedures involve manipulating circuit breakers. The following criteria should be followed during “Circuit Breaker” steps: • Circuit breakers that are “SET” should be checked for normal condition. If the circuit breaker is not “Set”, it may be reset only once. If the circuit breaker opens again, do not reset. • Circuit breakers that “PULL” should only be pulled and not reset. Original Issue 3-6 P/N 13772-005 Section 3 Cirrus Design Emergency Procedures SR22T • Circuit breakers that “CYCLE” should be pulled, delayed for several seconds, and reset only once. Allow sufficient cooling time for circuit breakers that are reset through a “CYCLE” procedure. Memory Items Checklist steps emphasized by underlining such as the example below, should be memorized for accomplishment without reference to the procedure. 1.

ENSURE SECURED Amplification • WARNING • If engine failure is accompanied by fuel fumes in the cockpit, or if internal engine damage is suspected, move Mixture Control to CUTOFF and do not attempt a restart. If the engine fails immediately after becoming airborne, abort on the runway if possible. In most cases, when the engine fails below 500 feet AGL, the landing should be made straight ahead, turning only to avoid obstructions. In such a case, lower the nose to maintain airspeed and establish a glide attitude. If the engine fails between 500 feet and 2000 feet AGL, CAPS activation most likely is the safest option. After establishing a glide for landing or activating CAPS, perform as many of the checklist items as time permits.

If the engine fails at altitude, pitch as necessary to establish best glide speed. While gliding toward a suitable landing area, attempt to identify the cause of the failure and correct it. If altitude or terrain does not permit a safe landing, CAPS deployment may be required. Refer to Section 10, Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) for CAPS deployment scenarios and landing considerations. Excessive engine cooling may be experienced during long descents resulting in low engine oil and cylinder head temperatures. This may result in the engine not accelerating properly when power is reapplied. If oil or cylinder head temperatures are excessively low then the engine should be operated at partial power until the temperatures are sufficient for full power operation. Original Issue 3-10 P/N 13772-005 Section 3 Cirrus Design Emergency Procedures SR22T Possible Engine Failure Causes Improper Fuel Management: If the engine failure cause is determined to be improper fuel management, turn off Fuel Pump and resume fight. Engine Driven Fuel Pump Failure: If fuel management is correct, failure of the engine driven fuel pump or a clogged fuel filter is probable. An engine driven fuel pump failure is probable when engine will only operate with fuel pump on HIGH BOOST/PRIME. Reduce power to 75% or less and land as soon as practical. Do not set the mixture too rich for descent or landing. Improper Mixture Setting: If fuel management is correct and the engine driven fuel pump is functioning properly, it is possible the mixture is either too lean or too rich. Possible over rich conditions: • Very low power settings at high altitude and rich mixture. • Very low power settings with the fuel pump on and rich mixture. • Severe induction system blockage, leakage, or turbo failure and rich mixture. Possible over lean conditions: • Advancing the throttle from a lean condition before enriching the mixture • HIGH BOOST/PRIME switched off from a lean condition before enriching the mixture. • Vapor in fuel line (likely to happen in very hot ambient conditions at altitude). • High altitude descent in lean condition with no corresponding throttle or mixture change.

If the manifold pressure is reduced below 15 in.Hg and the Power Lever positioned close to or at idle, the engine may cease combustion.

Leaning the mixture and then slowly enriching mixture may correct faulty mixture control. Engine airstarts may be performed during 1g flight anywhere within the normal operating envelope of the airplane.

If the airplane is in IMC conditions, turn ALT 1, ALT 2, and BAT 1 switches OFF. Power from battery 2 will keep the Primary Flight Display operational for approximately 30 minutes. If airplane is in day VFR conditions and turning off the master switches eliminated the fire situation, leave the master switches OFF. Do not attempt to isolate the source of the fire by checking each individual electrical component. (Continued on following page) Original Issue 3-14 P/N 13772-005 Section 3 Cirrus Design Emergency Procedures SR22T If the cause of the fire is readily apparent and accessible, use the fire extinguisher to extinguish flames and land as soon as possible. Opening the vents or doors may feed the fire, but to avoid incapacitating the crew from smoke inhalation, it may be necessary to rid cabin of smoke or fire extinguishant. If required to re-activate systems, pause several seconds between activating each system to isolate malfunctioning system. Continue flight to earliest possible landing with malfunctioning system off. Activate only the minimum amount of equipment necessary to complete a safe landing. Engine Fire In Flight 1. Mixture .............................................................................
