Off-road roof-mounted Headlights
Cayenne S TranssyberiafPlease read the separate instructions for fitting
and operating the off-road roof-mounted
headlights.DisclaimerThe off-road roof-mounted headlights provided
with your Cayenne S Transsyberia have been
designed and manufactured solely for off-road
use. The use of these lights while on a public road
in your country may not be legal or may be legal
only under specified conditions. Check your
national, state/provincial and local laws or
regulations regarding any restrictions and/or
limitations for public highway use prior to
installation. It is common in many countries, for
example, that such roof-mounted headlights must
be hooded or covered while you are on a public
road.
Under no circumstances should the electrical
circuits for these lights be connected to the
circuits for the other lights provided with your
vehicle.
Safety Notes!
fCompletely remove the off-road roof-mounted
headlights before using an automatic car wash
– risk of damage to the vehicle!
fBefore every trip, and at regular intervals
during long trips, check that the off-road
roof-mounted headlights are secured to the
vehicle properly.
fWith the off-road roof-mounted headlights
fitted, do not exceed a maximum speed of
110 mph (180 km/h).
Nevertheless, Porsche recommends that you
do not exceed the posted speed limit.
fDriving, braking and steering behaviour
change due to the higher center of gravity and
the greater wind-resistant area. You should
adapt your driving style appropriately.
fSince fuel consumption and noise are
increased when the off-road roof-mounted
headlights are fitted, they should not remain on the vehicle when not in use.
Note on operation
If the engine is not running and the off-road
roof-mounted headlights are switched on, the
vehicle battery will be discharged.
Switching the off-road roof-mounted
headlights on/offThe off-road roof-mounted headlights are ready for
operation when the side lights are switched on.
fSwitch the off-road roof-mounted headlights on
and off using the button in the roof console.

Tr a i l e r H i t c h
Towing a trailer
Warning!
Driving with a trailer
fAlways see the permissible towing capacity,
vertical coupling load and rear-axle load.
Please see the chapter “WEIGHTS” on
Page 356.
fWhen connected, the trailer must always be
horizontal behind the towing vehicle. If neces-
sary, use a trailer with an adjustable drawbar.
fWhen the vehicle is driven in the mountains, the
engine output decreases as altitude increases.
The maximum weights stated are the values at
sea level. The total permissable weight of the
car-trailer combination must therefore be re-
duced by 10% for each increment of 3,280 ft.
(1,000 meters) altitude. A fractional increment
counts as the full 3,280 ft. (1,000 meters).
Please take this into consideration when plan-
ning your route.Distributing the load
fDistribute the load in the trailer so that heavy
objects are as close to the axle as possible.
Always safeguard all objects against slipping
and tie them down securely.
fYou should make the best possible use of the
trailer coupling's rated vertical coupling load
when loading the trailer, but never exceed it.
Tire pressure
fSelect the vehicle tire pressure for full load
when towing a trailer.
fPlease see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURES,
COLD (68 °F/20 °C)” on Page 354.
fCheck the tire pressure of the trailer's wheels
according to the manufacturer's instructions.Door mirrors
fIf the width of the trailer obstructs your view of
the traffic behind the trailer, you must have
additional door mirrors fitted.
Headlights, lights
fAlways check the headlight adjustment before
driving with a trailer.
If necessary, correct with the headlight beam
adjustment function.
fCheck whether the plug of the trailer is
plugged into the towing vehicle and whether all
lights function.
