Handling and Servicing SR22T
Do not use abrasive cleansers or cleaning pads on the
germanium window. Abrasive cleaning can damage the
sensor window coating.
Do not use any cleansers containing ammonia. Ammonia will
remove the sensor window coating.

brush areas that were sprayed.
• Caution •

or induction air intakes.
4. Allow the solvent to remain on the engine from 5 to 10 minutes.
