Electrical System
In order to avoid damage and faults in electrical or electronic systems, electrical accessories should be installed at an authorized Porsche dealerfUse only accessories approved by Porsche.
Replacing fuses or relays with the engine running or the ignition on could cause electrical shock.fDisconnect the negative terminal on the battery during all work on the electrical system.fPlease see the chapter “BATTERY (12 VOLT)” on page 271.
Relays
Relays should be checked or changed only at an authorized workshop.
Changing fuses
In order to prevent damage to the electrical system due to short circuits and overloads, the individual circuits are protected by fuses.
The fuse boxes are located in the side walls of the driver’s and passenger’s footwell respectively. 1. Switch off the load with the defective fuse. 2. Detach the appropriate plastic cover at the finger hole.3. Remove the relevant fuse (see fuse assignment) from its slot using the yellow plastic gripper A (left fuse box) in order to check it.A blown fuse can be identified by the melted metal strip.4. Replace only with fuses of the same rating. Spare fuses can be found in the left-hand fuse box, next to the yellow plastic gripper.We recommend that you use genuine Porsche fuses for replacement.
Information
If a fuse blows repeatedly, the cause of the fault must be corrected immediately.fPlease contact an authorized Porsche dealer.

272 Minor Repairs
Risk of damage to the fabric, metal or paint from battery acid or electrolyte.fDo not allow battery acid to come in contact with fabric or painted surfaces.fSpilled electrolyte must be rinsed off at once with a solution of baking soda and water to neutralize the acid.
Charge state
A well-charged battery prevents starting problems and has a longer service life.
In order to avoid unintentional battery discharge:
fSwitch off unnecessary electrical loads in city traffic, on short trips or in a line of traffic.fAlways remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle orswitch off the ignition on vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive.fAvoid using the Porsche Communication Management system and the audio system when the engine is not running.fPlease see the chapter “CHARGING THE BATTERY” on page 274.
Information
In the cold season in particular or if the vehicle is used primarily for short distances, it may be necessary to recharge the battery from time to time.
Battery care
fEnsure that battery is securely mounted.fKeep battery surface clean and dry.fKeep terminals and connections clean. Corrosion can be prevented by coating the terminals and connections with petroleum jelly or silicone spray.fEnsure that terminal clamps and the vent hose are firmly secured.
Winter driving
The ability of the battery to deliver and store power decreases at low outside temperatures. Moreover, the battery is more heavily loaded in the winter months, e.g. by the heated rear window, the more frequent use of additional lights, the blower and the windshield wipers, etc.fHave the battery checked before the start of winter.
Information
Keep the battery fully charged to prevent it from freezing.
A discharged battery can already freeze at –5 ºC, but a fully charged one only freezes at –40 ºC. fIf the battery is frozen, thaw it out before connecting jump leads.
Laying up the vehicle
If the vehicle is left for long periods in the garage or workshop, the doors and lids should be closed.fRemove the ignition key or disconnect the battery if necessary.
Information
fWhen the battery is disconnected, the alarm system ceases to function.
If the vehicle was locked before the battery was disconnected, the alarm will be triggered when the battery is reconnected.To deactivate the alarm system: fLock the vehicle and unlock it again.
Alarm system, central locking
fThe status of the central locking and alarm system does not change when you disconnect the battery.
Information
Even if you put your vehicle out of operation, the battery still discharges.fThe battery must be charged, i.e. connected to a charger, approximately every 6 weeks in order to preserve battery function.fStore a battery that has been removed in a dark, cool place that is not exposed to frost.
Replacing the battery
The battery is subject to normal wear: its service life depends heavily on the care you give it, climatic conditions and the conditions of use (distances, loads).
It is not possible to use the details on the battery case to determine a comparable battery that meets all the specific requirements of Porsche.fHave the battery removed and installed only by your authorized Porsche dealer.fOnly use an original Porsche battery, with the correct part number, as a replacement. Only this battery meets the specific requirements of the vehicle.
