All occupants, including the driver, should not operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat until the headrests and backrests are placed in their proper positions so that the risk of neck injuries is minimized in the event of a crash.fAdjust the backrest's inclination such that the headrest is in an upright position.fDriver and passengers should be seated upright and in the center of their seats.
Front Seats
Seat position
A ergonomically correct sitting position is important for safe and fatigue-free driving. We recommend the following procedure for adjusting the driver’s seat to suit individual requirements: 1. Adjust the seat height to give yourself enough headroom and a good overview of the vehicle.2. Adjust the seat in fore-and-aft direction so that your leg is not fully straight and your entire foot is on the pedal when pressing the pedals fully.3. Grip the top half of the steering wheel. Set the backrest angle and the steering wheel position so that your arms are almost outstretched. However, your shoulders must still rest on the backrest.4. Adjust the seat fore-and-aft setting if necessary.
Adjusting the seat
The seat may move further than desired if you attempt to adjust it when driving. You may lose control of the vehicle.fDo not adjust the seat when driving.
If persons or animals are within the range of movement of the seat, they could become trapped or crushed when you adjust the seat.fAdjust the seat so that no-one is put at risk.

PASS AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
Information
Depending on the weight, body positioning and shape acting on the passenger's seat, it can occur in the case of heavier children that the passenger airbag is active or, in the case of very light adults or young persons, that the passenger airbag is deactivated.

LATCH Child Seat System
LATCH child seats are the best option for mounting a child seat in your Porsche. Such LATCH child seats can be installed only using the LATCH system in the rear seats.
Use only child restraint systems with the LATCH system ( Lower Anchorage and Tether for Ch ildren) recommended by Porsche. These systems have been tested and adjusted to the interior of your Porsche and the appropriate child weight groups. Other systems have not been tested and could entail an increased risk of injury.
You can obtain child seats that are LATCH- compatible at your authorized Porsche dealer.
Always observe the separate installation instructions for your child seat.Using a LATCH child seat system
The rear seats are equipped with the LATCH system (lower anchorage and anchor points for tether straps on the back of the backrests).
Removing the backrest lower section
Detach the backrest lower section at the top center (Velcro strap) and disengage from the ISOFIX brackets.
Markings on the right and left for the LATCH child seat anchorage can be found on the backrest lower section of the rear seats.
The anchor bars A for the LATCH child seat anchorage can be found under the backrest lower section.
