Read this AFM carefully. It provides oper- ational procedures that will ensure the operator obtains the performance published in the manual, data ed to allow the most efficient and safe use of the airplane, and basic information to assist in maintaining the airplane in airworthy condition. • N OTE • All limitations, procedures, maintenance & servicing require- ments, and performance data contained in this AFM are manda- tory for compliance with FAA operating rules and for continued airworthiness of the airplane. This AFM includes the material required to be furnished to the pilot by the Code of Federal Regulations (CFRs) and additional information provided by Cirrus and constitutes the FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual for the aircraft. The Airplane Flight Manual This AFM has been prepared using GAMA Specification #1 for Airplane Flight Manual, Revision 2, dated 18 October 1996 as the content model and format guide. However, some deviations from this specification were made for clarity. The AFM is presented in loose-leaf form for ease in inserting revisions and is sized for convenient storage. Tabbed dividers throughout the AFM 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 AFM 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 and Balance Section 7 ..................................................................

Log of Supplements Section 10 ................................................................... Safety Information Original Issue 01 Aug 2023 FRONTMATTER CIRRUS FOREWORD SR22 Frontmatter-2 NOT FAA APPROVED P/N 44765-001 The data presented in this AFM is the result of extensive flight tests and is approved by the Federal Aviation Administration. However, as new proce- dures or performance data are developed, the AFM will be revised. • N OTE • It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that the Airplane Flight Manual is current at all times. Therefore, it is very important that all revisions be properly incorporated into this AFM as soon as they become available. Revising the Airplane Flight Manual Two types of revisions may be issued for this Handbook: 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 in a timely manner. 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 AFM. 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 AFM. 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 AFM has the issue date at the lower inside corner opposite the page number and the revision level under the part number. Issue dates will correspond to the issue dates of the Original Issue, any revisions, or reissues on the List of Effective Pages. The Original Issue and its issue date will be listed on the List of Effective Pages. In the event that the majority of pages in the AFM are revised, Cirrus may determine that it is more effective to reissue the AFM. Reissues will be identified by the word “Reissue” followed by a letter indicating the reissue level; for example, “Reissue A” on the List of Effective Pages along with its issue date. Revisions will be identi- fied by the word “Revision” followed by the revision number on the List of Effective Pages; 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. 01 Aug 2023 Original Issue CIRRUS FRONTMATTER SR22 SUPPLEMENTS P/N 44765-001 NOT FAA APPROVED Frontmatter-3 Revisions to the Airplane Flight Manual AFM revisions, temporary revisions, and supplements can be downloaded from Cirrus at www.cirrusaircraft.com, or from the Authorized Service Center website. Paper copies of AFM revisions and supplements can be purchased from Cirrus Connection at www.cirrusconnection.com. Supplements The Supplements section (Section 9) of this AFM 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 AFM. Supplements are essentially “mini-hand- books” and may contain data corresponding to most sections of the AFM. Data in a supplement either adds to, supersedes, or replaces similar data in the basic AFM. Section 9 includes a “Log of Supplements” page preceding all Cirrus 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 facility through an STC or other approval method, it is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the proper supple- ment, if applicable, is installed in the AFM and that the supplement is prop- erly recorded on the “Log of Supplements” page. FAA Approved AFM Supplements must be in the airplane for flight oper- ations when the subject optional equipment is installed or the special oper- ations 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 trans- ferred 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. In the event a new AFM is purchased, the owner must ensure that all infor- mation applicable to the airplane is transferred to the new AFM and the aircraft records are current.

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. VG Best Glide Speed is the speed at which the greatest flight distance is attained per unit of altitude lost with power off. VO Operating Maneuvering Speed is the maximum speed at which application of full control movement will not overstress the airplane. V FE_50% Maximum Flap Extended Speed (50%) is the highest speed permissible with wing flaps extended to the 50% position (typical of takeoff and approach) V FE_100% Maximum Flap Extended Speed (100%) is the highest speed permissible with wing flaps extended to the 100% position (typical of landing). 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. Original Issue 01 Aug 2023 S ECTION 1: GENERAL CIRRUS THE A IRPLANE SR22 1-10 NOT FAA APPROVED P/N 44765-001 Table 2: Meteorological Terminology V REF Landing reference speed or threshold crossing speed. VS Stalling Speed is the minimum steady flight speed at which the aircraft is controllable. VSO 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. Meteorological Terminology Terminology Definition 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 14 CFR 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). 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.

It is expressed in either °C or °F. PA Pressure Altitude is the altitude read from the altimeter when the altimeter’s barometric adjustment has been set to 29.92 in.Hg (1013.21 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 59 °F (15 °C) at sea level pressure altitude and decreases approximately 4 °F (2 °C) for each 1000 feet of altitude increase. See ISA definition. Engine Power Terminology Terminology Definition HP 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 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.

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 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. 01 Aug 2023 Original Issue CIRRUS S ECTION 1: G ENERAL SR22 T HE A IRPLANE P/N 44765-001 NOT FAA APPROVED 1-13 Table 5: Weight and Balance Terminology Weight and Balance Terminology Terminology Definition Reference Datum Reference Datum is an imaginary vertical plane from which all horizontal distances are measured for balance purposes. Fuselage Station Fuselage Station (FS) 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 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. 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. 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. 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). Maximum Gross Weight Maximum Gross Weight is the maximum permissible weight of the airplane and its contents as listed in the aircraft specifications. Maximum Takeoff Weight Maximum Takeoff Weight is the maximum weight approved for the start of the takeoff run. Original Issue 01 Aug 2023 S ECTION 1: GENERAL CIRRUS THE A IRPLANE SR22 1-14 NOT FAA APPROVED P/N 44765-001 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 takeoff weight. It is the maximum allowable combined weight of pilot, passengers, fuel, and baggage.

FIS-B Receiver Equipment, including GTX 345 Mode S UAT in Tran- sponder (optional): a) Flight Information Services - Broadcast (FIS-B) information is intended to enhance pilot awareness of weather and airspace condi- tions. It does not replace positive two way communication when making safety critical weather or routing decisions. Use FIS-B weather and National Airspace System (NAS) status information as follows: (1)To aid pilot awareness of hazardous meteorological conditions and awareness of the regulatory status of the airspace. (2)FIS-B information is meant to enhance flight planning only. It lacks sufficient resolution and updating necessary for tactical maneuvering. Traffic Advisory System (TAS) Use of the Traffic Advisory System (TAS) to maneuver the airplane to avoid traffic is prohibited. The TAS is intended for advisory use only. TAS is intended only to help the pilot to visually locate traffic. It is the responsi- bility of the pilot to see and maneuver to avoid traffic. Navigation Map and Weather Map The Navigation Map is intended only to enhance situational awareness. Use of the Navigation Map page for pilotage navigation is prohibited. LTNG information on the Navigation Map or Weather Map is approved only as an aid to hazardous weather avoidance. Use of the Weather Map for hazardous weather penetration is prohibited.

Safetaxi, Taxiway Routing, and Chartview func- tions have not been qualified to be used as an Airport Moving Map Display (AMMD). Safetaxi, Taxiway Routing, and Chartview are to be used by the flight crew to orient themselves on the airport surface to improve pilot situ- ational awareness during ground operations. Terrain Proximity Map The Terrain Proximity Map is intended only to enhance situational aware- ness. Use of the Terrain Proximity information for primary terrain avoid- ance is prohibited. Synthetic Vision System (SVS) Use of the Synthetic Vision System (SVS) for flight guidance, navigation, traffic avoidance, or terrain avoidance is prohibited. Maneuvering the airplane in any phase of flight such as taxi, takeoff, approach, landing, or roll out should not be predicated on SVS imagery. The synthetic vision system is not intended to be used independently of traditional attitude instrumentation. Consequently, SVS is disabled when traditional attitude instrumentation is not available. Otherwise, the traditional attitude instru- mentation will always be visible in the foreground with SVS features in the background. Terrain Awareness Warning System (Optional) Use of the Terrain Awareness and Warning System for navigation and terrain avoidance is prohibited. The TAWS is intended to serve as a situa- tional awareness tool only and may not provide the accuracy fidelity on which to solely base terrain or obstacle avoidance maneuvering decisions. To avoid getting unwanted alerts, TAWS must be inhibited when landing at an airport that is not included in the airport database. • N OTE • Only vertical maneuvers are recommended responses to warnings and cautions unless operating in VMC or the pilot determines, using all available information and instruments, that a turn, in addition to the vertical escape maneuver, is the safest course of action. During certain operations, warning thresholds may be exceeded due to specific terrain or operating procedures. During day VFR flight, these warnings may be considered as cautionary. 01 Aug 2023 Original Issue CIRRUS S ECTION 2: L IMITATIONS SR22 O THER L IMITATIONS P/N 44765-001 FAA APPROVED 2-31 Max Viz Enhanced Vision System (Optional) 1.

Although emergencies caused by airplane, systems, or engine malfunctions are rare, the guidelines described in this section should be considered and applied as necessary should an emergency arise. Emergency procedures associated with optional equipment are not described in this section. Although this section provides procedures for handling most emergencies and critical flight situations that could arise in the aircraft, it is not a substi- tute for proper flight training, thorough knowledge of the airplane, and recognized piloting techniques and standards. A thorough study of the information in this handbook while on the ground will help you prepare for time-critical situations in the air. • N OTE • Refer to Section 9: Log of Supplements for optional equipment Emergency Procedures. Crew Alert System (CAS) Messaging Warnings Displayed in red against a black background, Warning CAS messages arise during emergency situations that require immediate flight crew awareness and immediate flight crew response. • A flashing Warning CAS message with an accompanying aural alert requires immediate action. • A Warning CAS message with no accompanying aural alert requires attention, dependent on workload. It may also require performing maintenance or taking corrective action prior to next flight. Warnings with no aural alert typically occur while on ground. 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. Original Issue 01 Aug 2023 S ECTION 3: E MERGENCY P ROCEDURES CIRRUS I NTRODUCTION SR22 3-4 FAA APPROVED P/N 44765-001 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 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. • N OTE • Refer to Section 4: Normal Procedures, "Preflight Inspection" for more information. Methodology Aircraft emergencies are dynamic events. Because of this, it is impossible to enumerate every action a pilot should properly undertake in response to a particular situation. However, four basic actions can be applied to any emergency. They are: Maintain Aircraft Control Many minor aircraft emergencies turn into major ones when the pilot fails to maintain aircraft control. Do not panic and do not fixate on a particular problem. Over-attention to a warning light during an instrument approach can lead to a pilot-induced unusual attitude, and possibly worse. To avoid this, even in an emergency: always aviate, navigate, and communicate, in that 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. Read all warning and caution messages. Evaluate the engine parameters. Consider all aircraft operational information at your disposal. Take Appropriate Action In many situations, the procedures listed in this section will either correct or mitigate the aircraft problem or allow safe recovery of the aircraft. Follow them and use good pilot judgment. 01 Aug 2023 Original Issue CIRRUS S ECTION 3: E MERGENCY P ROCEDURES SR22 I NTRODUCTION P/N 44765-001 FAA APPROVED 3-5 The Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) should be activated in the event of a life-threatening emergency where CAPS deployment is deter- mined to be safer than continued flight and landing. • N OTE • 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 evaluated and responded to the emergency, assess your next move. Perform any non-critical “clean-up” items in the checklist and land as soon as practicable. Even if the airplane appears to be in sound condi- tion, it may not be. • N OTE • Refer to Landing Guidance in this section for factors that deter- mine landing criticality. Circuit Breakers Some procedures involve manipulating circuit breakers (CBs). The following criteria should be followed during “Circuit Breaker” steps: • Intentional pulling of circuit breakers during flight, other than as required in specific procedures, may cause abnormal or unexpected system behavior and is not recommended. • When instructed to “SET”, the appropriate circuit breaker 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. • When instructed to “PULL”, the appropriate circuit breaker should only be pulled and not reset. • When instructed to “CYCLE”, the appropriate circuit breaker should be pulled, delayed for several seconds, and reset only once. Allow suffi- cient cooling time for circuit breakers that are reset through a “CYCLE” procedure. Memory Items Checklist steps emphasized by a rectangular enclosure, such as the example below, should be memorized for accomplishment without reference to the procedure, due to the nature of their urgency. 1.

On condition, the pilot makes a decision to identify the applicable sub-section. Following the initial decision, a further sub-division of the procedure may occur. In that event, one or more additional conditions guides the pilot through the remaining decisions. Once the applicable condition(s) are identified, the pilot follows the remaining steps until the indication "Proce- dure Complete" is reached. The procedure symbol levels are: ◆ First Level ❍ Second Level ❑ Third Level Landing Guidance Land as Soon as Practicable The pilot may consider the convenience of future maintenance when selecting an airport to land as soon as practicable. Pilots must not overfly a suitable and practicable airport for other ground conveniences. Land as Soon as Possible The pilot must identify and land at the first available airport that allows for a safe approach and landing considering the approach procedures avail- able, ceilings, visibility, winds and runway lengths 01 Aug 2023 Original Issue CIRRUS S ECTION 3: E MERGENCY P ROCEDURES SR22 AIRSPEEDS FOR E MERGENCY OPERATIONS P/N 44765-001 FAA APPROVED 3-7 Airspeeds for Emergency Operations Maneuvering Speed 3600 lb (1633 kg) ..................................................................................140 KIAS Best Glide (Flaps: UP) All Weights ..............................................................................................92 KIAS Emergency Landing Flaps UP...................................................................................................90 KIAS Flaps 50% .................................................................................................85 KIAS Flaps 100% ...............................................................................................80 KIAS Original Issue 01 Aug 2023 S ECTION 3: E MERGENCY P ROCEDURES CIRRUS G LIDE SR22 3-8 FAA APPROVED P/N 44765-001 Glide Best Glide Speed 3600 lb (1633 kg).................................................................................... 92 KIAS Figure 3-1: Maximum Glide Ratio Normal Conditions ~ 8.8 : 1 w/ Ice Accumulation ~ 6.4 : 1 Conditions Example Power OFF Altitude 10,000 ft.

Power from battery 2 will keep the PFD and GTC’s operational for approximately 30 minutes. If airplane is in day VFR conditions and turning off the BAT/ALT switches elim- inated the fire situation, leave the BAT/ALT switches OFF. Do not attempt to isolate the source of the fire by checking each individual electrical component. 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 incapac- itating 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.
