Steering wheels.
Where your journey takes you is in
your hands. For this reason, all available
steering wheels feature a high-grip
rim in smooth-finish leather and offer
outstanding ergonomics. The reach from
the steering wheel to the gear lever is
short for sport y and fast gear changes.
In combination with the optional fully
electric seats, the steering wheel is also
electrically adjustable and for even more
convenience, a memory function is
included.
Sports steering wheel.
The three-spoke sports steering wheel is
fit ted as standard and offers up to 40 mm
of adjustment for both height and reach.
The steering wheel rim is upholstered in
smooth-finish leather. In conjunction with
optional PDK, the steering wheel features
t wo ergonomic switches. One press with the thumb and PDK shifts up. One pull
with the index finger and PDK shifts down.
Either the right or left hand can be used.
With the optional Sport Chrono Package
and PDK, there is an additional display
above the airbag module. It tells you
whether the SPORT, SPORT PLUS and
Launch Control functions are activated.
The optional multifunction steering wheel
provides extra operating comfort with

four function but tons and t wo thumb -
wheels for convenient operation of many
audio, telephone and navigation functions. SportDesign steering wheel.
Visually, the optional SportDesign steering
wheel is distinguished by its st ylish twin-
spoke design. It ’s in safe hands, even on
the sportiest of drives. In conjunction with PDK, the steering
wheel features t wo gearshift paddles.
Made from a strong alloy, they are ergo
-
nomically located behind the right and left
steering wheel spokes. Pull the right-hand
paddle and PDK shifts up. Pull the left-
hand paddle and PDK shifts down.
When combined with the optional Sport
Chrono Package and PDK, the steering
wheel has an additional display in the
left- and right-hand spokes to indicate
whether the SPORT, SPORT PLUS and
Launch Control functions are activated.

Steering wheel heating.
For extra comfort on those cold days, a
heating function is available as an option
for the sports steering wheel and the
multifunction steering wheel. The heating
is activated by a separate control but ton
on the steering wheel and the rim is
warmed to a pleasant temperature. Cold weather should never be a reason to

prevent you from enjoying your open-top
driving experience.

Electronic logbook for PCM.
An electronic logbook is available for
PCM as an option. It enables automatic
logging for every journey of mileage,
route distance, date, time, starting
location and destination. After you have
downloaded your logbooks from the PCM
via the USB or Bluetooth
® inter face, you
can evaluate the data on your home PC using the soft ware supplied. The soft
-
ware fulfils all statutory requirements
for automatic logbooks as specified by
the German revenue authorities.
TV tuner for PCM.
The optional T V tuner is capable of
receiving unencrypted analogue and
digital television broadcasts (DVB -T) to provide entertainment bet ween journeys.
For your safet y, the T V picture is
switched off while the car is in motion.
Voice control system for PCM.
To get what you want, you like to get
straight to the point. Almost all of the
functions of PCM can be controlled using
the optional voice control system with word-by-word input. The menu item is
read aloud exactly as it is displayed on
the screen and the voice control system
recognises commands or sequences

of numbers, whoever the speaker. It then
gives an audible acknowledgement and
carries out the functions you request.
There is no need to ‘train’ the system.
Telephone module for PCM.*
The optional quadband GSM telephone
module offers convenience and excellent
reception. By inserting a SIM card directly
into the PCM’s integral SIM card reader,
calls can be made using the hands-free
facility. For even more convenience, the
Bluetooth
® capability of a mobile phone
can be used to make calls via the SIM Access Profile (SAP). Once automatic
pairing is complete, the mobile phone’s
aerial is switched off to conserve bat tery
charge and the phone operates via the
car aerial. Depending on the mobile
phone model, this gives access not only
to the numbers on the SIM card, but

also to the phone’s internal memory.
Depending on the phone, it can also be controlled using PCM, the optional

multifunction steering wheel or the
optional voice control system, without
it ever leaving your pocket.

3 Universal audio inter face (AUX, USB e.g. for iPod®)
in conjunction with PCM
In addition, the telephone module enables
you to establish a Bluetooth
® link with
those mobile phones that only support the
Handsfree Profile (HFP). In this case, the
GSM connection is always established
through the aerial of the mobile phone.
PCM acts as a hands-free system and you
can leave the mobile phone tucked away.
On request, a cordless handset for the tele -
phone module is also available. Stored in
the centre console, it features a display
and keypad. However, the handset cannot
be used for Bluetooth
® links established
using the Handsfree Profile (HFP).
Mobile phone preparation
for PCM and CDR.*
To enable a Bluetooth® connection for
those mobile phones that only support
the Handsfree Profile (HFP), an optional
mobile phone preparation is available.
With HFP, the CDR audio system or PCM
acts as a hands-free system. The CDR
audio system and PCM are able to control
all the basic functions of the mobile
phone. The GSM connection is established
through the aerial of the mobile phone.
Universal audio interface
for PCM and CDR.
With this feature, the CDR audio system
is supplemented by an AUX inter face
(e.g. for connecting a compatible MP3
player) installed in the glove compart -
ment. In conjunction with optional PCM,
a USB port is included to enable you
to connect your iPod
® or a USB stick.
Whichever device is connected, it can be
controlled conveniently and safely using
PCM, the optional multifunction steering
wheel or the optional voice control
system. Through the USB port, it is also
possible to download data from the
performance display of the optional
Sport Chrono Package as well as data
from the optional electronic logbook.
CD or CD/DVD autochanger.
An integrated six- disc CD autochanger
is available for the CDR audio system on
request, while an integrated six- disc CD/
DVD autochanger is available for optional
PCM. Both support the playback of tracks
in MP3 format.
Sound Package Plus for PCM and CDR.
For sophisticated ears: the optionally
available Sound Package Plus.
With a total output of 185 wat ts, seven
loudspeakers combine to create the
perfect interior sound experience. Audio
set tings can be customised using the
CDR audio system or optional Porsche
Communication Management (PCM).

1BOSE® Surround Sound System.
The optional BOSE® Surround Sound
System really strikes a chord.
Developed specifically for Porsche and
optimally tuned for the interior of the new
Boxster models, it can be combined with
optional Porsche Communication Manage -
ment (PCM) or the CDR audio system.
This high-end audio system comprises
eight amplifier channels with a total
output of 445 wat ts. Its 10 loudspeak -
ers, including an active subwoofer
concealed behind the dashboard, deliver
a balanced acoustic pat tern. In combination with optional Porsche
Communication Management (PCM), the
BOSE
® Surround Sound System enables
audio playback of DVDs and is thus able
to make full use of the impressive sound
spectrum of 5.1 digital recordings.
Of course, you can still play other audio
sources, such as CDs and MP3s, in
stereo or, at the push of a but ton, in one
of the virtual surround modes generated
by BOSE
® Centerpoint® 2.
The BOSE
®- patented AudioPilot® noise
compensation technology uses a
microphone to continuously measure the
ambient noise inside the vehicle and adapts music playback instantly and

automatically so that a consistent sound
is maintained – whatever the driving
conditions.
The result is a balanced, faithfully
reproduced sound and a captivating
360° acoustic experience.

Personalisation
CDR audio system with optional six- disc CD autochanger
Universal audio inter face (AUX)
1) May be incompatible with some copy- protected audio CDs (CDR) or audio CDs/ DVDs (PCM). 2) Mobile phone preparation or telephone module in HFP mode: the use of a mobile phone inside a car may cause an increase in the interior elec -
tromagnetic field strength and, accordingly, in the electromagnetic radiation to which passengers are exposed. If a cradle is used to mount the
mobile phone, the field strength in the passenger compartment can be reduced because the phone can be connected up to the
external aerial (feature depends on how specific mobile phones connect to the cradle). For information about the availabilit y of a cradle
for your mobile phone, please contact your Porsche Centre. The use of the telephone module for PCM via Bluetooth
® SAP connection or with
inserted SIM card prevents exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the car’s external aerial is ever used.
For information on compatible mobile phones, please visit www.porsche.com or contact your Porsche Centre.
3) For information on compatibility with iPod® and iPhone® models, please contact your Porsche Centre. 4) For receiving digital T V signals (DVB -T) (where available).
The vehicles illustrated in the chapter on personalisation may include additional options not featured in this catalogue.
For information on these options, please consult your Porsche Centre.
