INTRODUCTION
1. COVERAGE
This Cirrus Design SR22 Airplane Maintenance Manual was prepared by Cirrus Design Technical Publica-
tions. This manual contains information necessary to enable a trained mechanic to inspect, service, clean,
trouble shoot, functionally test, and repair systems and equipment in the Cirrus Design SR22. It also
includes information necessary for the mechanic to perform maintenance or make minor repair to units in
the airplane normally requiring such action on the flight line or in the maintenance hangar. This manual
covers the as delivered airplane configuration.
The Cirrus Design SR22 Airplane maintenance manual was prepared using GAMA Specification #2 (Spec-
ification for Manufacturers Maintenance data), Revised September 1982 as a content model and format
guide. However, as the specification is written to cover a whole class of aircraft rather than a particular
model, some deviations from the specification were made for clarity.
This Maintenance Manual does not reflect part numbers and cannot be used for ordering replacement
parts. Spares and replacement parts should be ordered using the current Cirrus Design SR22 Illustrated
Parts Catalog.
Wiring schematics within the description and operation sections of this manual are for general information
purposes only. Troubleshooting shall be performed using the Wiring Manual, and the optional avionics and
electrical wiring diagrams provided at delivery.
2. USING THE MAINTENANCE MANUAL
This Maintenance Manual is divided into four major sections, each of which is separated into chapters.
Each chapter contains its own list of effective pages and table of contents.
A. Page Numbering System
Page numbers used in this Maintenance Manual consist of two-element numbers separated by
dashes, under which the page number and date are printed.
Whenever the chapter/system element number is followed by zeros in the section/subsystem (32-00)
the information presented on the page is applicable to the entire system.
The section/subsystem number is used to identify information applicable to section or subsystems
within a chapter or system respectively. The subject/unit element number progresses from the number
‘10’ in accordance with GAMA Specification No. 2 and the number of section/subsystem units covered.
All system/subsystem data is page numbered separately.
3. WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
Warnings, Cautions, and Notes are used to highlight or emphasize important points.
Warnings call attention to use of materials, processes, methods, procedures, or limits which must be fol-
lowed precisely to avoid bodily injury.
Cautions call attention to methods and procedures which must be followed to avoid damage to equipment.
Notes call attention to methods which make the procedure easier.
