Controls, Instruments
Never invite car theft! An unlocked car with the key in the ignition lock
invites car theft.
A steering wheel lock and a gong alarm are
standard equipment in your Porsche.
The gong alarm will sound if you open the driver’s
door while the key is still in the ignition lock. It is
your reminder to pull the key out of the ignition
lock and to lock the doors.
Warning!
Any uncontrolled movement of the vehicle
may result in serious personal injury and
property damage.
Never leave your vehicle unattended with the
key in the ignition lock, especially if children
and/or pets are left unattended in the vehi-
cle. They can operate power windows and
other controls. If the engine is left running,
they may accidentally engage the shift lever.
fAlways remove the ignition key.
fAlways set the parking brake.
fLock the doors with the remote control.
Warning!
Risk of a serious accident.
The steering column will lock when you re-
move the key while you are driving or as the
car is rolling to a stop. You will not be able to
steer the car.
fNever remove the key from the steering lock while you are driving. To protect your vehicle and your possessions
from theft, you should always proceed as
follows when leaving your vehicle:
fClose windows.
fClose lifting/sliding roof
fClose convertible top (with the convertible top
open, the passenger compartment monitoring
system is always switched off)
fRemove ignition key.
fEngage steering lock.
fLock glove compartment.
fRemove valuables (e.g. car documents, tele-
phone, house keys) from the car.
fLock doors.

Keys fPlease observe the chapter “ALARM SYSTEM,
PASSENGER COMPARTMENT MONITORING”
on Page 26.
fPlease observe the chapter “CENTRAL LO-
CKING” on Page 22.
Two main keys and one spare key are supplied
with your Porsche.
These keys operate all the locks on your vehicle.
fBe careful with your car keys: do not part with
them except under exceptional circumstances.
fTo avoid battery run-down, always remove the
ignition key from the ignition lock.
Replacement keys Replacement car keys can be obtained only from
your authorized Porsche dealer, and this can
sometimes be very time-consuming.
You should therefore always keep the spare key on
your person.
Keep it in a safe place (e.g. wallet), but under no
circumstances in or on the vehicle.
The key codes of new keys have to be “reported”
to the car control unit by your authorized Porsche
dealer.
Disabling key codes
If a key is lost, the key codes can be disabled by
an authorized Porsche dealer.
All the remaining car keys are required for this pur-
pose.
Disabling the code ensures that the car can be
started only using authorized keys.
Note
fPlease note that the other locks can still be
opened with the disabled key.
Immobilizer There is a transponder (an electronic component)
in the key grip, containing a stored code.
When the ignition is switched on, the ignition lock
checks the code.
The immobilizer can be deactivated and the en-
gine started only using an authorized ignition key.
Switching off the immobilizer
fInsert the ignition key into the ignition lock.
If the ignition is left on for more than 2 minutes
without the engine being started, the immobilizer
is reactivated.
fIf this happens, turn the ignition key back to the
3 position before starting the engine.
Please observe the chapter “IGNITION/
STARTER SWITCH WITH ANTI-THEFT
STEERING LOCK” on Page 80.
Switching on the immobilizer
fRemove ignition key.Security Wheel Bolts fIf wheels have to be removed during a work-
shop visit, do not forget to hand over the sock-
et for the security wheel bolts along with the
car key.
