Steering Wheel HeatingThe steering wheel heating is switched on and off
automatically when the ignition is switched on
depending on the interior temperature.On vehicles with manual air conditioningThe steering wheel heating switches itself on
when the following criteria are fulfilled at the same
time:
1. Low outside temperature.
2. Low engine temperature.
3. The interior temperature setting in the display
of the air conditioning is 10 and more bars.
or at the highest level (all bars) of the interior
temperature setting on the display of the air
conditioning.
The steering wheel heating switches itself off
again after a warming-up phase, or is switched off
if one of the criteria is no longer met.

temperature on vehicles with manual air condi-
tioning:

Warning!
Risk of accident due to impaired vision,
resulting in serious personal injury or death.
The outside air that is flowing in is not dried
in ECON mode. The windows may mist up.
fDo not switch on ECON mode in damp weather.
In ECON mode, the air-conditioning compressor is
switched off and this deactivates the cooling
function (e.g. to save fuel).
The air-conditioning compressor is always swit-
ched off at temperatures below 37.4 °F (3 °C).
Switching on ECON mode

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.

If you have not used the parking heater for several
weeks, the system may require the parking heater
to be switched on several times before it actually
“starts up”.
fPlease take a break of approximately
5 minutes between each individual switch-on
attempt.
Requirement for initial start-up of the
parking heater:
–Cold engine.Have the parking heater checked by an authorized
Porsche dealer in the following cases:
– If the parking heater fails to “start-up” after the
3rd switch-on attempt.
– In the event of faults in the parking heater, no
function symbol appears on the display – only
the remaining running time is shown.
The display flashes on briefly and then goes
completely dark.
– In the event of a serious accident, the parking
heater switches off automatically for safety
reasons.
The parking heater is not ready for operation.
– If the temperature rises, the overheating
protection switches the parking heater off
automatically. The parking heater is not ready
for operation.
– The parking heater is switched off automati-
cally if the voltage is too low. The parking
heater is temporarily unavailable.

Panorama roof systemThe Panorama roof system of your Porsche
consists of a total of four roof elements.
Roof element 1 is the draft deflector. This
adjusts itself according to the speed, and helps
protect from the disturbing effects of the wind
when the Panorama roof system is open,
especially at high speeds or from turbulent air
flow.
Both roof elements 2 and 3 can be moved by
activating the knob in the vehicle's longitudinal
direction. Roof element 3 can also be raised.
This allows the interior to be better ventilated.
Roof element 4 is a fixed glass element and
completes the Panorama roof system.
