Seats, Mirrors and Steering Wheel
Steering WheelTiptronic rocker switchesThe Porsche Tiptronic is a six-speed transmission
and features an “automatic” and a “manual” gear-
shift mode.
You can change temporarily to manual mode using
rocker switches A on the steering wheel.
fFor further information on gearshifting with
Tiptronic S:
Please see the chapter “TIPTRONIC S” on
Page 170.
HornfPress button B to operate the horn.Airbag unitAirbag unit C is located behind the padded
steering wheel boss.
In conjunction with the safety belts, the “airbag” is
a safety system designed to provide the driver and
passengers with maximum protection from injury
in an accident.
fFor further information on the airbag system:
Please see the chapter “AIRBAG SYSTEMS” on
Page 45.
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.
fFor more information about setting the interior
temperature on vehicles with manual air condi-
tioning:
Please see the chapter “SETTING
TEMPERATURE” on Page 68.

Driving and Driving Safety
161
StoppingfWithdraw the ignition key only when the vehicle
is stationary, otherwise the steering lock
engages and the vehicle cannot be steered.
fOnly switch the ignition off when the vehicle
comes to a stop, as there is no steering assis-
tance and brake boost when the engine is
switched off.
fWhen leaving the vehicle, always remove the
ignition key and engage the parking brake.
Engage the parking lock on vehicles with
Tiptronic S (Tiptronic selector lever position
P). Engage first gear or reverse gear on vehic-
les with manual transmission.
The control unit always remains in the ignition
lock in vehicles that have Porsche Entry &
Drive.
Note on operation
The vehicle battery discharges if the ignition key is
left inserted.
Warning!
Danger of injury. Hot engine compartment
components can burn skin on contact.
fBefore working on any part in the engine
compartment, turn the engine off and let it cool
down sufficiently.
Risk of burn injury when standing near or co-
ming into contact with the exhaust pipe.
The exhaust pipe is hot when the vehicle is running
and remains hot for some time after the vehicle is
turned off.
fTo prevent injury, make a point of noting where
your vehicle’s exhaust pipe is, avoid placing
your legs near the exhaust pipe when loading
and unloading cargo in the rear, and closely
supervise children around the vehicle during
time when the exhaust pipe could be hot. A hot exhaust pipe can cause serious burns.Radiator fans
The radiator and radiator fans are in the front of
the car.
Warning!
Danger of injury. After the ignition is
switched off, the engine compartment and
coolant temperatures are monitored for
approx. 30 minutes. During this period, and
depending on temperature, the radiator fan
may continue to run or start to run.
fCarry out work in these areas only with the engine off and exercise extreme caution.

Driving and Driving Safety

The warning lights will go out after the parking
brake is fully released.
The warning lights are not an indicator that the
parking brake is fully applied; it is only intended to
be a warning to release the parking brake before
driving the car.
Caution!
A partially engaged brake will overheat the
rear brakes, reduce their effectiveness and
cause excessive wear.
fRelease the parking brake fully.
fWhen parking your car, press down firmly on
the foot pedal.
fMove the Tiptronic selector lever to “P”
(Tiptronic) or move the gearshift lever to
reverse or first gear (Manual transmission).
fOn hills also turn the front wheels towards the
curb.
BrakesfMake it a habit to check the operation of your
brakes before driving.
Keep in mind that the braking distance increases
very rapidly as the speed increases. At 60 mph
(100 km/h), for example, it is not twice but four
times longer than 30 mph (50 km/h). Tire traction
is also less effective when the roads are wet or
slippery.
fTherefore, always maintain a safe distance
from the car in front of you.Vehicles without Porsche Ceramic
Composite Brake (PCCB)Even though the brake discs consist of alloyed
grey cast iron, they will unavoidably start to cor-
rode if your car is parked for an extended period.
The brakes will tend to “rub” as a result.
The nature, extent and effects of corrosion
depend on the amount of time the vehicle was
parked, whether road salt or grit was spread and
whether grease-dissolving agents were used in
car washes.
If the braking comfort is noticeably impaired, we
recommend having the brake system checked by
experts at an authorized Porsche dealer.
Brake system functionYour Porsche is equipped with a power assisted
hydraulic dual circuit brake system with disc
brakes at the front and rear.
Both circuits function independently. One brake
circuit operates the front left and rear right wheel
and the other operates the front right and rear left
wheel.
If one brake circuit has failed, the other will still
operate. However, you will notice an increased
pedal travel when you apply the brakes.Failure of
one brake circuit will cause the stopping distance
to increase.
Warning!
Risk of an accident, resulting in serious per-
sonal injury or death.
In the unlikely event of hydraulic failure of
one brake circuit:
fPush the brake pedal down firmly and hold it in
that position. A mechanical linkage activates
the second circuit, and you will be able to bring
the vehicle to a stop.
fAfter bringing your vehicle to a complete stop,
avoid driving the vehicle and instead have it
towed to the nearest authorized Porsche dealer for repair.
