Introduction
This aircraft is designed to operate safely and efficiently in a flight environ-
ment. However, like any other aircraft, pilots must maintain proficiency to
achieve maximum safety, utility, and economy. Cirrus strongly recom-
mends that all pilots seek regular recurrent training and that they operate
in accordance with the Cirrus Flight Operations Manual and Envelope of
Safety.
As the pilot, you must be thoroughly familiar with the contents of this
Handbook, the Handbook Supplements, Flight Checklist, and operational
guides and data provided by manufacturers of equipment installed in this
airplane. You must operate the airplane in accordance with the applicable
FAA operating rules and within the limitations specified in Section 2 of this
Handbook.

The Normal Procedures section of this Handbook was designed to provide
guidance for day-to-day operation of this airplane. The procedures given
are the result of flight testing, FAA certification requirements, and input
from pilots with a variety of operational experience. Become fully familiar
with the procedures, perform all the required checks, and operate the
airplane within the limitations and as outlined in the procedures.
Taxiing, Steering, and Braking Practices
Cirrus aircraft use a castering nose wheel and rely on aerodynamic forces
and differential braking for directional control while taxiing. Proper
braking practices are therefore critical to avoid potential damage to the
brakes.
The most common cause of brake damage and/or failure is the creation of
excessive heat through improper braking practices. Pilots unaccustomed to
free castering nose wheel steering may be inclined to “ride” the brakes to
maintain constant taxi speeds and use the brakes excessively for steering.
• CAUTION •
When brake temperatures are between 270-293 °F (132-145 °C),
the Crew Alerting System will display a BRAKE TEMP Caution
annunciation. A BRAKE TEMP Warning annunciation occurs
when brake temperature exceeds 293 °F (145 °C). If either annun-
ciation occurs, the pilot should stop the aircraft and allow the
brakes to cool to avoid damaging the brake system.
