pacities”.

may be damaged by even a tiny speck of dirt, only
a clean funnel or spout must be used when adding
AT F.

and changed at the intervals listed in your Mainte-
nance Schedule.

mission oil changed at your Porsche dealer, who
has the required lubricants and the necessary fill-
ing equipment.
