A- Filler bottle
B - Filler hoseTire sealantThe tire sealant can be used to seal small cuts,
especially in the tire tread.
Sealing the tire with the tire sealant is only an
emergency repair, so you can drive to the next
workshop. Even with the tire air-tight, it may be
used only for short journeys in an emergency. The tire sealant and a compressor with pressure
tester can be found in the luggage compartment.
The tire sealant comprises:
– A filler bottle
– A sticker denoting the maximum permissible
speed for the driver’s field of vision
– A filler hose
– A valve turner and
– A spare valve insert.
Danger!
Risk of accident , resulting in serious per-
sonal injury or death.
f Use the tire sealant only in the case of cuts or
punctures no larger than 0.15 in. (4 mm).
f Never use the tire sealant if the rim is dam-aged.
Warning!
The sealant is highly flammable and harmful
to health.
f Fire, naked flame and smoking are prohibited
when handling tire sealant.
f Avoid contact with skin, ey es or clothing due to
caustic chemical properties of the tire sealant.
f Keep tire sealant away from children.
f Do not inhale vapors, due to consequent harm
to personal health resulting in serious personal injury or death.
In case of contact with the sealant:
f If sealant gets on the skin or in the eyes,
thoroughly rinse the affect ed part of the body
off immediately.
f Change soiled clothing immediately.
f Get medical attention immediately in the event
of an allergic reaction.
f If sealant was swallowed, thoroughly rinse out
the mouth without delay an d drink plenty of
water.

Replacing fuses In order to prevent damage to the electrical sys-
tem due to short circuits and overloads, the indi-
vidual circuits are protected by fuses.
The fuse box is located in the driver’s footwell.
A - Plastic gripper
B - Spare fuses 1. Switch off the load with the defective fuse.
2. Pull off plastic cover at the finger hole (arrow ).
The fuse plan and instructions for
emergency unlocking of the luggage
compartment lid can be found on the inner
side of the cover.
3. Remove the corresponding fuse from its slot using the plastic gripper A in order to check it.
A blown fuse can be ide ntified by the melted
metal strip. 4. Replace only with fuses of the same rating.
We recommend using genuine Porsche fuses
for replacement.
Note
f If a fuse blows repeatedly consult an author-
ized Porsche dealer.
f Never try to “repair” fuses: you may cause se-
rious damage to other pa rts of the electrical
system.
