Seats, Mirrors and Steering Wheel fAlways keep feet in the footwell while driving.
Do not put feet on the dashboard or the seat
area. Do not lean against the inside of the door
or outside the window while the vehicle is
moving.
fUsing accessories not approved by Porsche
can cause the weight sensing to be impaired.
fDo not squeeze objects, such as the fire
extinguisher, or first aid kit under the seat.
fOnly have seats removed and installed by an
authorized Porsche dealer so that weight
sensing components will not be damaged.
fGive your passenger all of the information in
this chapter.
Note
Airbag components (e.g. steering wheel, seats)
may be disassembled only by an authorized
Porsche dealer.
fWhen disposing of a used airbag unit, our
safety instructions must be followed. These
instructions can be obtained at any authorized
Porsche dealer.
Function of the airbag systemAirbags are a supplemental safety system. Your
primary protection comes from your safety belts.
The front airbags are triggered during a frontal
collision of sufficient force and direction.
In the event of a side impact of corresponding
force, the side airbag on the impact side is
triggered.
The inflation process generates the amount of gas
required to fill the airbags at the necessary
pressure in fractions of a second.
Airbags help to protect the head and upper body,
while simultaneously damping the motion of the
driver and passenger in the impact direction in the
event of a frontal impact or side impact.
In order to help provide protection in severe colli-
sions which can cause death and serious injury,
airbags must inflate extremely rapidly. Such high
speed inflation has a negative but unavoidable
side effect, which is that it can and does cause in-
juries, including facial and arm abrasions, bruising
and broken bones. You can help minimize such in-
juries by always wearing your safety belts.
There are many types of accidents in which
airbags are not expected to deploy. These include
accidents where the airbags would provide no be-
nefit, such as a rear impact against your vehicle.
Other accidents where the airbags are designed
not to deploy are those where the risk of injury
from the airbag deployment could exceed any pro-
tective benefits, such as in low speed accidents or higher speed accidents where the vehicle decele-
rates over a longer time. Since airbag deployment
does not occur in all accidents, this further em-
phasizes the need for you and your passengers to
always wear safety belts.
Your vehicle is equipped with a crash sensing and
diagnostic module. This module will record the
use of the seat belt restraint system by the driver
and front passenger when the airbags and/or belt
tentioner are triggered.
Precondition for activating the restraint systems:
fIgnition is switched on.
Advanced AirbagYour vehicle is equipped with weight sensing for
the passenger's seat in accordance with
U.S. Federal/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard 208.
Depending on the weight acting on the
passenger's seat, the passenger's airbag will
automatically be switched on and off.
Depending on the angle and force of impact, the
passenger's airbag which is switched-on will be
triggered during a collision.
Precondition for switching the passenger's airbag
on and off, depending on weight:
fIgnition is switched on.

Information on air-conditioning
compressorThe air-conditioning compressor:
– May switch off briefly to ensure sufficient
engine cooling if the engine is operating under
extreme load.
– Switches off automatically at temperatures
below approx. 37.4 °F (3 °C) and cannot be
switched on, even manually.
– Operates most effectively with windows
closed.
If the car has been in the sun for a long time,
however, it is a good idea to ventilate the
interior briefly with the windows open.
– Depending on the outside temperature and
humidity, condensation can drip from the eva-
porator and form a pool under the car.
This is normal and not a sign of leakage.
fIf uncooled air flows out when the lowest
temperature has been set (“LO”), switch off the
air-conditioning compressor and have the fault
remedied at an authorized Porsche dealer.

due to provisions of law.Automatic driving light assistantThe driving light assistant is a comfort function.
Your Porsche’s driving light (low beam) is switched
on and off automatically, irrespective of the
ambient brightness.
Despite possible support by the driving light assis-
tant, it is the responsibility of the driver to switch
on the driving light using the conventional light
switch in accordance with the relevant national
regulations.
Activating the headlights using the driving light
assistant does not therefore absolve the driver of
responsibility for the correct operation of the
driving light.

residue), the blades can be cleaned with a
sponge or a cloth.
If the wiper blades rub or squeak, this may have
the following causes:
– If the vehicle is washed in an automatic car
wash, wax residues may adhere to the wind-
shield. These wax residues can be removed
only by using window cleaner concentrate.

Setting Tire Pressure Monitoring
Danger!
Risk of serious personal injury or death.
Driving the vehicle with low tire pressure
increases risk of a tire failure and resulting
loss of control. Furthermore, low tire
pressure increases rate of wear of the
affected tires.
Despite the advantages offered by Tire
Pressure Monitoring, it is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is still the
driver’s responsibility to update the settings
in the multi-purpose display and maintain the
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation
has not reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of Tire Pressure Monitoring low tire
pressure message. Low tire pressure
reduces the road safety of the vehicle and
destroys the tire and wheel.
fWhen a flat tire has been displayed, immedi-
ately stop in a suitable place and check the
tires for damage. If necessary, remedy the damage with tire sealant or fit the spare wheel.
fDo not by any means continue to drive with
leaking tires.
fSealing the tire with the tire sealant is only an
emergency repair so you can drive to the next
authorized Porsche dealer.
The maximum permitted speed is 50 mph
(80 km/h).
fDefective tires must be immediately replaced
by an authorized Porsche dealer.
Tire repairs are not permissible under any
circumstances.
fDo not drive with tires whose tire pressure
drops again in a short period of time. Have
tires checked by an authorized Porsche dealer.
fIf Tire Pressure Monitoring is defective (e.g.
defective wheel transmitters), contact an
authorized Porsche dealer immediately and
have the damage repaired.
The tire pressure will not be monitored by
defective Tire Pressure Monitoring.
For information on warning messages on the
multi-purpose display: Please see the chapter
“OVERVIEW OF WARNING MESSAGES” on
Page 149.
fTire Pressure Monitoring gives a warning about
tire damage due to insufficient tire pressure as
well as about a gradual loss of pressure due to
foreign objects. Tire Pressure Monitoring
cannot warn you about tire damage that
occurs suddenly (e.g. flat tire due to acute
external effects).
