brake light PORSCHE 911 TURBO 2014 6.G Owners Manual

5
Dear Porsche Owner,
A lot has gone into the manufacture of your Porsche sports car, including advanced engineering, rigid quality control and demanding inspections. These engineering and safety features will be enhanced by you…
the safe driver…
– who knows her/his car and all controls,– who maintains the vehicle properly,– who uses driving skills wisely and always drives within her/his own capabilities and the level of familiarity with the vehicle.
You will find helpful hints in this manual on how to perform most of the checks listed on the following pages. If in doubt, have these checks performed by your authorized Porsche dealer.
Before driving off…
Check the following items first
fTurn the engine off before you attempt any checks or repairs on the vehicle.fBe sure the tires are inflated correctly. Check tires for damage and tire wear.fSee that wheel bolts are properly tightened and not loose or missing.fCheck engine oil level, add if necessary. Make it a habit to check the engine oil with every refueling.fCheck all fluid levels such as windshield washer and brake fluid levels.
fBe sure the vehicle battery is well charged and cranks the engine properly.fCheck all doors and lids for proper operation and latch them properly.fCheck and if necessary replace worn or cracked wiper blades.fSee that all windows are clear and unobstructed.fCheck air intake slots and area between luggage compartment lid and windshield. Ensure that these areas are free of snow and ice, so the heater and the windshield wipers work properly.fIf a child will be riding in the vehicle, check child seat/child seat restraint system to ensure that restraints are properly adjusted.fCheck all exterior and interior lights for operation and that the lenses are clean.fCheck the headlights for proper aim, and if necessary, have them adjusted.fCheck under the vehicle for leaks.fBe sure all luggage is stowed securely.
Emergency equipment
It is good practice to carry emergency equipment in your vehicle. Some of the items you should have are: window scraper, snow brush, container or bag of sand or salt, emergency light, small shovel, first-aid kit, etc.
In the driver’s seat…
fCheck operation of the horn.fPosition seat for easy reach of foot pedals and controls. To reduce the possibility of injury from the air bag deployment, you should always sit back as far from the steering wheel as is practical, while still maintaining full vehicle control.fAdjust the inside and outside rear view mirrors.fBuckle your safety belts.fCheck operation of the foot and electric parking brake.fCheck all warning and indicator lights with ignition on and engine not running.fStart engine and check all warning displays for warning symbols.fNever leave an idling car unattended.fLock doors from inside, especially with children in the car to prevent inadvertent opening of doors from inside or outside.Drive with doors locked.

On the road…
fNever drive after you have consumed alcohol or drugs.fAlways have your safety belt fastened.fAlways drive defensively. Expect the unexpected.fUse signals to indicate turns and lane changes.fTurn on headlights at dusk or when the driving conditions warrant it.fAlways keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, depending on traffic, road and weather conditions.fReduce speed at night and during inclement weather.Driving in wet weather requires caution and reduced speeds, particularly on roads with standing water, as the handling characteristics of the vehicle may be impaired due to hydro-planing of the tires.fAlways observe speed limits and obey road signs and traffic laws.fWhen tired, get well off the road, stop and take a rest. Turn the engine off. Do not sit in the vehicle with engine idling. Please see the chapter “ENGINE EXHAUST” on page 4.fWhen parked, always put the electric parking brake on and put the PDK selector lever in position P. On hills also turn the front wheels toward the curb.fWhen emergency repairs become necessary, move the vehicle well off the road. Turn on the emergency flasher and use other warning devices to alert other motorists. Do not park or operate the vehicle in areas where the hot exhaust system may come in contact with dry
grass, brush, spilled fuel or other flammable material.fMake it a habit to check the engine oil with every refueling.
Break in hints for the first
2,000 miles (3,000 kilometers)
The following tips will be helpful in obtaining optimum performance from your new Porsche.
Despite the most modern, high-precision manufacturing methods, the moving parts must still wear in with each other. This wearing-in occurs mainly in the first 2,000 miles (3,000 km).
Therefore:
fPreferably take longer trips.fAvoid frequent cold starts with short-distance driving whenever possible.fAvoid full throttle starts and abrupt stops.fDo not exceed maximum engine speed of 4,200 rpm (revolutions per minute).fDo not run a cold engine at high rpm either in Neutral or in gear.fDo not let the engine labor, especially when driving uphill. Shift to the next lower gear in time (use the most favorable rpm range).fNever lug the engine in high gear at low speeds. This rule applies at all times, not just during the break-in period.fDo not participate in motor racing events, sports driving schools, etc. during the first 2,000 miles (3,000 kilometers).
There may be a slight stiffness in the steering, gear-shifting or other controls during the break-in period which will gradually disappear.
Break in brake pads and brake disks
New brake pads and disks have to be ”broken in“, and therefore only attain optimal friction when the car has covered several hundred miles or km.The slightly reduced braking ability must be compensated for by pressing the brake pedal harder. This also applies whenever the brake pads and brake disks are replaced.
New tires
New tires do not have maximum traction. They tend to be slippery.fBreak in new tires by driving at moderate speeds during the first 60 to 120 miles (100 to 200 km). Longer braking distances must be anticipated.
Engine oil and fuel consumption
During the break-in period oil and fuel consump-tion may be higher than normal.
As always, the rate of oil consumption depends on the quality and viscosity of oil, the speed at which the engine is operated, the climate and road conditions, as well as the amount of dilution and oxidation of the lubricant.fMake a habit of checking engine oil with every refueling, add if necessary.
