Engine Exhaust

Danger! Engine exhaust is dangerous if inhaled. Engine exhaust fumes have many components which you can smell. They also contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is a colorless and odorless gas. Carbon monoxide can cause unconsciousness and even death if inhaled. f Never start or let the engine run in an enclosed, unventilated area. It is not recommended to sit in your car for prolonged periods with the engine on and the car not moving. California Proposition 65 Warning Warning! Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Hot Exhaust Pipes

Warning! Risk of burn injury when standing near or coming into contact with the exhaust pipe. The exhaust pipe is hot when the vehicle is running and remains hot for some time after the vehicle is turned off. f To prevent injury, make a point of noting where your vehicles exhaust pipe is, avoid placing your legs near the exhaust pipe, and closely supervise children around the vehicle when the exhaust pipe could be hot. A hot exhaust pipe can cause serious burns.

Safety Belts

Warning! Always make sure your and your passengers safety belts are properly fastened while the vehicle is in motion. Failure to follow safety belt warnings may result in serious personal injury or death. f For your and your passengers protection, use safety belts at all times while the vehicle is in motion. f Use appropriate child restraint systems for all small children. Proper wearing of safety belts f Safety belts must be positioned on the body as to restrain the upper body and lap from sliding forward. Improperly positioned safety belts can cause serious personal injury or death in case of an accident. f The shoulder belt should always rest on your upper body. The shoulder belt should never be worn behind your back or under your arm. f For maximum effectiveness, the lap belt should be worn low across the hips. f Pregnant women should position the belt as low as possible across the pelvis. Make sure it is not pressing against the abdomen.
f Belts should not be worn twisted.
f Do not wear belts over rigid or breakable objects in or on your clothing, such as eye glasses, pens, keys, etc. as these may cause injury. f Several layers of heavy clothing may interfere with proper positioning of belts. f Belts must not rub against sharp objects or damage may occur to the belt. f Two occupants should never share the same belt at the same time. Care and maintenance f Keep belt buckles free of any obstruction that may prevent a secure locking. f Belts that have been subjected to excessive stretch forces in an accident must be inspected or replaced to ensure their continued effectiveness in restraining you. The same applies to belt tensioner systems which have been triggered. In addition, the anchor points of the belts should be checked. f If safety belts do not work properly, see your authorized Porsche dealer immediately. f If the belts show damage to webbing, bindings, buckles or retractors, they should be replaced to ensure safe operation. f Do not modify or disassemble the safety belts in your vehicle.
f The belts must be kept clean or the retractors may not work properly. Please see the chapter CAR CARE INSTRUCTIONS on Page 203. f Never bleach or dye safety belts. f Do not allow safety belts to retract until they are completely dry after cleaning or this may cause damage to the belt.

f After inserting the ignition key, the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF warning light lights up for a few seconds as a bulb check. PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp lights up The passenger's airbag is switched off.
Note The key switch for switching off the passengers airbag in combination with the LATCH attachment bracket are not installed at the factory. They can be retrofitted. f Please see your authorized Porsche dealer.

Airbag maintenance

In order to ensure long-term functioning, the airbag system must be inspected by an authorized Porsche dealer at the intervals recommended in your Maintenance Booklet. Important information If you sell your Porsche, notify the purchaser that the vehicle is equipped with airbags, and refer them to the chapter, Airbag Systems, in the Owner's Manual (safety and disposal rules). Further information on the airbag system can be found on stickers attached to the sun visors. For special recommendations on the use of child restraints: f Please see the chapter CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS on Page 50.
Warning light and warning message
Faults are indicated by a warning light in the instrument panel and a message on the on-board computer. f Please see the chapter WARNINGS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE ON-BOARD COMPUTER on Page 166. f In the following cases you should immediately consult an authorized Porsche dealer in order to assure the airbag system is functioning properly: If the warning light does not light up when the ignition key is inserted or If the warning light does not go out once the engine is running or If the warning light appears while driving.
Warning light PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF If the airbag on the passengers side is switched off: Warning light PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF is continuously lit when the ignition key is inserted. Danger! Risk of serious personal injury or death from the passengers airbag. If the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF warning light is not lit when the ignition key is inserted and the Airbag OFF switch is switched to the OFF-Position, this could indicate a fault in the system.
Key-operated airbag deactivation device

Operation of the ABS system
A wheel speed sensor is mounted to each of the four wheels. If wheel lock-up of either of the front wheels or the rear wheels is sensed during braking, the brake pressure is adjusted automatically until the wheel no longer slips. If braking forces approach the wheel lock-up point for all wheels (panic braking) the ABS system will intervene to provide a rapid rythmic braking. The proper operation of ABS is perceived by the driver as a pulsating brake pedal in conjunction with audible noise and perhaps some vibration. f If you experience these sensations while driving or a road surface with questionable traction, reduce vehicle speed appropriate for the prevailing road conditions. f If full braking should be necessary, press the brake pedal all the way down throughout the entire braking procedure, regardless of the pulsating pedal. Do not ease up on pressure applied to the pedal. The functional readiness of all the main electrical components of the ABS is checked by an electronic monitoring system both before and while you drive.
When the ignition is switched on the ABS warning light will light up while the system is electronically interrogated and goes out when the engine is started if the check is not yet complete. If the ABS warning lamp fails to go out, this indicates that ABS has been deactivated due to a fault. If the warning lights in the instrument panel and on-board computer light up while you are driving, this indicates that a fault has occurred. In both cases, normal braking, as in vehicles without ABS, is still retained. The ABS system should, however, be examined at an authorized Porsche dealer immediately to prevent the occurrence of further faults. f If the ABS system becomes inoperative, take your vehicle to your authorized Porsche dealer immediately.
Warning! Risk of an accident, resulting in serious personal injury or death. The control unit of the ABS brake system is set for standard tire size. If non-standard tires are installed, the control unit may misinterpret the speed of the vehicle, because of the variant data it receives from the sensors on the axles. f Use only tire makes and types tested by Porsche.

Clutch Pedal

The clutch pedal must be depressed fully before the starter will engage. Warning! Risk of an accident, resulting in serious personal injury or death. f Always check the movement of the clutch pedal before driving and make sure that it is not obstructed by a floor mat or any other object. f Secure the floor mat to prevent it from sliding into positions that could interfere with the safe operation of your vehicle. Your Porsche dealer will be glad to offer you nonskid floor mats of the correct size. To avoid damage to the clutch and transmission: f Always depress the clutch pedal fully when changing gears. f Do not hold the car on a steep grade with the clutch pedal partially depressed. Should the free travel of the clutch pedal suddenly become larger, it could mean a malfunction of the clutch. f See your Porsche dealer for correction.

Average consumption and average speed The values displayed are based on the distance travelled since the last reset to zero. You can set the starting time for a measurement before or during the trip. Switching the ignition off does not reset the measurements. It is therefore possible to collect values over long periods. Disconnecting the car battery will cause these memories to be erased.
Tire pressure The Tire pressure function of the on-board computer displays the tire pressures dependent on temperature in the four wheels. You can watch the tire pressure rise and fall while driving. The display is only for information. f To correct the tire pressures, always use the displayed values from the Info pressure display in the tire pressure menu.
Warnings on the instrument panel and the on-board computer
If a warning message appears, always refer to the corresponding chapters in the Owners Manual. Warning messages are issued only if all measurement preconditions are met. Therefore, check all fluid levels regularly in particular, always check the engine oil level before refueling. Instrument panel On-board computer Text display on on-board computer

Shifting Gears

To avoid damage to the clutch and transmission: f Always depress the clutch pedal fully when changing gears. Make sure that the gearshift lever is completely engaged. f Only shift into reverse when the car has come to a complete stop. f When shifting gears, always ensure that the clutch pedal is fully depressed and the gear has fully engaged. f Select reverse only when vehicle is stationary. Reverse gear can be engaged after shifting the gearshift lever as far as possible to the left. f Select an appropriately low gear on upward and downward slopes. This will ensure optimum use of engine power and engine braking. When reverse gear is selected and the ignition is on, the backup lights are illuminated.

Permitted engine speed

f You should change into a higher gear before the needle reaches the red mark on the tachometer, or ease off the accelerator. If the red zone is reached during acceleration, fuel feed is interrupted. Caution! Risk of engine damage (overrevving) when shifting down to a lower gear. f Take care not to exceed the maximum permitted engine speed when shifting down.
Manual Transmission, Clutch
The positions of the gears are shown on the shift diagram on the gearshift lever. Warning! Risk of accident, resulting in serious personal injury or death. f Do not obstruct the pedal travel with floor mats or other objects. Nonskid floor mats of the correct size are available at your authorized Porsche dealer.

Drive-Off Assistant

The Drive-Off Assistant assists the driver when moving off on hills. The vehicle must have sufficient road contact. The Drive-Off Assistant is available on gradients as from around 5%. Danger! Risk of accident. Assistance by the Drive-Off Assistant is not guaranteed when moving off on a slippery surface (e.g. on icy or loose surfaces). In this case, the vehicle could slip. The limits dictated by the laws of physics cannot be overcome, even with the Drive-Off Assistant. The responsibility for moving off on upward slopes is still the drivers, despite the Drive-Off Assistant. f Always adjust your driving style to the driving conditions and vehicle load, use the brake pedal if necessary. Risk of accident. If the Drive-Off Assistant is not functioning, the driver cannot be assisted when moving off on hills. f Hold the vehicle with the brake pedal.

f Depress the accelerator pedal beyond the fullthrottle point (kickdown).

Driving in winter

In wintry road conditions it is advisable to take steep inclines in manual mode. This prevents gear changes occurring that could cause wheelspin.

Emission Control System

In the interest of clean air
Pollution of our environment has become a problem that is of increasing concern to all of us. We urge you to join us in our efforts for cleaner air in controlling the pollutants emitted from the automobile. Porsche has developed an emission control system that controls or reduces those parts of the emission that can be harmful to our environment. Your Porsche is equipped with such a system. Porsche warrants the Emission Control System in your new car under the terms and conditions set forth in the Warranty Booklet. You, as the owner of the vehicle, have the responsibility to provide regular maintenance service for the vehicle and to keep a record of all maintenance work performed. To facilitate record keeping, have the service performed by authorized Porsche dealers. They have Porsche trained technicians and special tools to provide fast and efficient service.
To assure efficient operation of the Emission Control System: f Have your vehicle maintained properly and in accordance with the recommendations described in your Maintenance Booklet. Lack of proper maintenance, as well as improper use of the vehicle, will impair the function of the emission control system and could lead to damage. f Do not alter or remove any component of the emission control system. f Do not alter or remove any device, such as heat shields, switches, ignition wires, valves, etc., which are designed to protect your vehicles emission control system. In addition to serious engine damage, this can result in a fire if excess raw fuel reaches the exhaust system. f Do not continue to operate your vehicle if you detect engine misfire or other unusual operating conditions.
Warning! Danger of fire resulting in serious personal injury or death. f Do not park or operate the vehicle in areas where the hot exhaust system may come in contact with dry grass, brush, fuel spill or other flammable material. f If your car catches on fire for any reason, call the fire department. Do not endanger your life by attempting to put out the fire.

Undercoating

Danger! Danger of fire resulting in serious personal injury or death. f Do not apply additional undercoating or rustproofing on or near the exhaust manifold, exhaust pipes, catalytic converters or heat shields. During driving the substance used for undercoating could overheat and ignite.
How Emission Control Works
When an automobile engine is running, it uses energy generated through the combustion of a mixture of air and fuel. Depending on whether a car is driven fast or slowly or whether the engine is cold or hot, some of the fuel (hydrocarbons) may not be burned completely, but may be discharged into the engine crankcase or exhaust system. Additonal hydrocarbons may enter the atmosphere through evaporation of fuel from the fuel tank. These hydrocarbons (HC), when released into the air, contribute to undesirable pollution. In addition, carbon monoxide (CO) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) contribute to engine emissions. They, too, are formed during the combustion process and discharged into the exhaust system. To reduce these pollutants, your Porsche is equipped with a precisely calibrated fuel injection system to assure a finely balanced air/fuel mixture under all operating conditions.

Danger! Risk of loss of control and serious personal injury or death. f If while driving, your vehicle experiences a sudden vibration or ride disturbance, and/or you suspect that possible damage to your tires or vehicle has occurred, you should immediately reduce your speed without excessive use of the brakes. f Stop the vehicle as soon as possible, and inspect the tires. If you cannot determine the cause for the disturbance, have your vehicle towed to the nearest Porsche or tire dealer to have your vehicle or tire(s) inspected. f Continuing to operate the vehicle without correction could result in a loss of control and serious personal injury.

Example

Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section width. All passenger car tires must conform to Federal Safety Requirements in addition to these grades. Treadwear The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specific government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one Practical Tips, Emergency Service
and a half (1-1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate. Traction AA, A, B, C The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C and they represent the tires ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance. Warning! The traction grade assigned to this is based on braking (straight-ahead) traction tests and does not include cornering (turned) traction, acceleration, hydroplaning or peak traction characteristics. Temperature A, B, C The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the tires resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperatures can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden
tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law. Warning! The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure, resulting in serious personal injury or death.

Important note Sealing the tire with the tire repair kit is only an emergency repair. Even with the tire airtight, it may be used only for short journeys in an emergency. The maximum permitted speed is 50 mph (80 km/h).
f Do not use commercially available sealant or tire inflating bottles. Use only the tire sealant located in the luggage compartment. Warning! Risk of accident, resulting in serious personal injury or death. f Have tires replaced by a specialist workshop as soon as possible. f Avoid hard acceleration and high cornering speeds.
The tire sealant and a compressor with pressure tester can be found in the luggage compartment. The tire sealant comprises: A filler bottle A sticker denoting the maximum permissible speed for the drivers field of vision A filler hose A valve turner and A spare valve insert. Danger! Risk of accident, resulting in serious personal injury or death.
A - Filler bottle B - Filler hose
Warning! The sealant is highly flammable and harmful to health. f Fire, naked flame and smoking are prohibited when handling tire sealant. f Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing due to caustic chemical properties of the tire sealant. f Keep tire sealant away from children. f Do not inhale vapors, due to consequent harm to personal health resulting in serious personal injury or death. In case of contact with the sealant:
f Use the tire sealant only in the case of cuts or punctures no larger than 0.15 in. (4 mm). f Never use the tire sealant if the rim is damaged.
f If sealant gets on the skin or in the eyes, thoroughly rinse the affected part of the body off immediately. f Change soiled clothing immediately. f Get medical attention immediately in the event of an allergic reaction. f If sealant was swallowed, thoroughly rinse out the mouth without delay and drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately.

Tire sealant

The tire sealant can be used to seal small cuts, especially in the tire tread. Sealing the tire with the tire sealant is only an emergency repair, so you can drive to the next workshop. Even with the tire air-tight, it may be used only for short journeys in an emergency.
