A- Front display – left monitoring area
B- Front display – right monitoring areaWarning indicators, signal tones, distances
The warning indicator for the front area is located
on the dashboard.
The warning indicator for the rear area is located
in the rooflining at the rear of the loadspace.
The warning indicators for the various monitoring
areas (left and right) are subdivided respectively
into one green, 4 yellow and 2 red light segments.
C- Rear display – right monitoring area
D- Rear display – left monitoring areaIf ParkAssist is activated, the green light seg-
ments of the active warning indicators are lit up
continuously.
If the vehicle approaches an obstacle that has
been detected by the sensors, one or more of the
yellow or red light segments lights up, depending
on the distance to the obstacle.If the first yellow light segment lights up, the ob-
stacle is still 48 in. (120 cm) (to the front) or 48 in.
to 59 in. (120 to 150 cm) (to the rear) away.
A brief signal tone sounds when reversing.
An intermittent tone sounds when the distance
becomes less than approx. 24 in. (60 cm). The
fourth yellow light segment lights up.
A continuous tone sounds when the distance be-
comes less than approx. 10 in. (25 cm) (on vehi-
cles with trailer coupling: approx. 14 in. (35 cm)).
The second red light segment lights up.
If the obstacle is approached even closer, the sys-
tem may not be able to recognize the obstacle any
longer.
fSet the radio volume so that the signal tones
are not drowned out.
You can have the volume of the signal tones ad-
justed to your own requirements at your author-
ized Porsche dealer.
Note on operation
If the obstacle is approached even closer after the
continuous tone sounds and the second red light
segment lights up, the system may not be able to
recognize the obstacle any longer.

Controls, Safety, Instruments Limits of ultrasonic measurement
– ParkAssist cannot detect sound-absorbing ob-
stacles (e.g. powder snow),
– Sound-reflecting obstacles (e.g. glass surfac-
es, flat painted surfaces),
– And very thin obstacles.
Other ultrasound sources (e.g. pneumatic brakes
of other vehicles, jackhammers) can interfere with
detection of obstacles.
Fault indication without warning tone
All red light segments of the active warning indica-
tors light up when there is a temporary fault in
ParkAssist.
Note
Correct operation is no longer ensured if there is
a temporary fault (e.g. caused by ice formation or
heavy soiling on the sensors).
The system detects the temporary fault.
All light segments light up until a speed of
9mph (14km/h) is reached.
ParkAssist is ready for operation again when the
interference has been eliminated.Fault indication with warning tone
In the event of a long-lasting fault in ParkAssist,
the red light segments of the active warning indi-
cators light up and a continuous tone sounds for
three seconds after a transmission range has
been selected.
Possible causes
– Defect or system fault.
fSwitch ParkAssist off.
When ParkAssist is switched off, the indicator
light in the button lights up.
fPlease have the fault remedied at an author-
ized Porsche dealer.Driving with a trailer
The ParkAssist rear monitoring area is switched
off when the trailer’s power supply is plugged in.

A- Programable keypad
B- Light-emitting diode for status identificationGarage Door OpenerThe programable garage door opener in your
Porsche replaces up to three original hand-held
transmitters used to operate a variety of devices
(e.g. garage door, gate to the property, alarm
system).
You have the option of programming each individ-
ual key in key pad A with an original hand-held
transmitter frequency.
Warning!
Risk of accident when using the garage door
opener if persons, animals or objects are
within the range of movement of the equip-
ment that is being operated.
fWhen using the garage door opener, ensure
that no persons, animals or objects are within
the range of movement of the equipment that
is being operated.
fObserve the safety notes for the original hand-held transmitter.
To operate the device in question
(e.g. garage door, gate to the property,
alarm system):
fPress the relevant button in keypad A.
Light-emitting diode B lights up during the
signal transfer.Notes on operation
fAlways use the garage door opener in the di-
rection of travel.
Otherwise, range restrictions cannot be ruled
out.
fBefore selling the vehicle, delete the pro-
gramed signals in keypad A of the garage door
opener.
fPlease read the instructions for the original
hand-held transmitter to find out whether the
original transmitter is equipped with fixed or
changeable code.

Allocating garage door opener signals to
the keysfPlease follow the operating instructions for the
original hand-held transmitter.
Before programming the keypad the first
time with garage door opener signals
This process deletes the standard codes set at
the factory. Do not repeat the process if you
program further buttons.
fKeep the two outer buttons of keypad A
depressed for approx. 20 seconds until light-
emitting diode B begins to flash.Garage door opener with fixed code system
1. Point the original transmitter at the position
marked.
2. Press the button of the original hand-held
transmitter and at the same time the button to
be allocated on keypad A.
3. Keep both buttons depressed until light-emit-
ting diode B starts to flash (first slowly and
then quickly).
Only release both keys when light-emitting
diode B flashes quickly.
The rapidly flashing light-emitting diode B
confirms that the new frequency signal was
programed successfully.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 to allocate signals for the
garage door opener to other keys. Garage door opener with changeable code
system
1. Allocate the required keys as for the systems
with fixed code (points 1 to 4).
2. To synchronise the system:
Press the programming button on the receiver
for the garage door actuator.
Afterwards, you usually have approx.
30 seconds to initiate step 3.
3. Press allocated button in keypad A twice
(in some devices you must press the allocated
button a third time to complete the setting).
4. Repeat the programming steps to allocate sig-
nals for the garage door opener to other but-
tons.

original transmitter at the position marked.
3. Press the button of the original hand-held
transmitter and keep it depressed.
4. The light-emitting diode B first flashes slowly
and then more quickly.
Only release both buttons when light-emitting
diode B flashes quickly.
Deleting programed signals
(e.g., when selling the vehicle)
fKeep the two outer buttons of key pad A

Car Telephone and Aftermarket Alarms Important legal and safety information re-
garding the use of cellular telephones
Some states may prohibit the use of cellular tele-
phones while driving a vehicle. Check the laws and
regulations on the use of cellular telephones in the
areas where you drive.
Danger!
Risk of an accident.
Severe personal injury or death can result in
the event of an accident.
Looking away from the road or turning your
attention away from your driving can cause
an accident and serious personal injury or
death.
When using your cellular telephone, you should al-
ways:
fGive full attention to your driving - pull off the
road and park before making or answering a
call if traffic conditions so require; andfKeep both hands on the steering wheel - use
hands-free operation (if available) - pull off the
road and park before using a hand-held tele-

It is essential to observe the instructions of
the telephone manufacturer before putting
the telephone into operation.
Any portable telephone or radio transmitter which
is used in a Porsche must be properly installed in
accordance with the technical requirements of
Porsche.
The transmission power must not exceed
10 W.
The devices must possess a type approval for
your vehicle and have an “e“ symbol.
If you should require equipment with transmission
power values greater than 10 W, please consult
your authorized Porsche dealer for this purpose.
He is familiar with the technical requirements for
installing devices of this kind.
The antennas for all radios and telephones with a
transmitting antenna must be externally mounted.
The improper installation of radios or telephones
or use of a radio or telephone with a transmitting
antenna inside the car may cause the warning
lights to come on.
Improper installation of such equipment can cre-
