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 ambi-
ent 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 as-
sistant does not therefore absolve the driver
of responsibility for the correct operation of the
driving light.
The low beam is switched on automatically in the
following situations:
–Dusk
–Darkness
– Travelling through tunnels
– Rain (in conjunction with the rain sensor)
– Highway driving
Note on operation
Fog is not recognised.
fIn the event of fog, the driving light must be
switched on manually.
Warning!
Risk of accident due to driving without lights.
fAlways carefully monitor the automatic driving light control.
Off delay and door-surrounding lighting
Off delay and door-surrounding lighting are active
when the automatic driving light assistant is
switched on.
fPlease observe the chapter “DOOR-SURROUN-
DING LIGHTING” on Page 168.
fPlease observe the chapter “COMING HOME
FUNCTION (AUTO SHUT OFF DELAY)” on
Page 168.
Highway function
The light is switched on at speeds of over 87 mph
(140 km/h). If you are travelling slower than
40 mph (65 km/h), the driving light is switched off
after a delay of approx. 2 minutes, if the external
lighting conditions permit.
Rain function
The driving light is switched on after five seconds
of continuous wiper operation.
The driving light is switched off approx. 4 minutes
after the wipers have stopped.
Bi-Xenon main headlights with
dynamically controlled cornering lightThe Bi-Xenon main headlights are equipped with
an additional light in vehicles with a cornering
light. As a result of its particular positioning, the
additional light provides significantly better lane
lighting to the left and right of the main light beam.

Controls, Safety, Instruments The rain sensor remains switched off if the wiper
lever is already in position 1 when the ignition is
switched on.
To switch the rain sensor on again:
fMove wiper stalk to position 0 and then to
position 1 – switching on is confirmed by one
wipe of the windscreen – or
fOperate windscreen washer system 5 –
switching on is confirmed by three wipes of the
windscreen – or
fChange the sensitivity of the rain sensor with
four-stage switch A.Changing the sensitivity of the rain sensor
Sensitivity can be set with switch A in 4 stages:
fAdjust switch A upwards –
high sensitivity.
The setting is confirmed by one wipe of the
windshield.
fAdjust switch A downwards –
low sensitivity.
2 – Front windshield wiper – slow
fMove wiper stalk upwards to the second click.
3 – Front windshield wiper – fast
fMove wiper stalk upwards to the third click.
At speeds of less than approx. ca. 2.5 mph
(4 km/h), rain sensor operation mode is automat-
ically activated if the windshield wiper is switched
on. If you exceed a speed of approx. 5 mph
(8 km/h), the system switches to the pre-selected
wiper level.
4 – Front windshield wiper – one-touch oper-
ation
fMove wiper stalk downwards. The front wind-
shield wipers go through one wipe cycle.5 – Front windshield wipers and washer sys-
tem

lever is pulled towards the steering wheel.
When the wiper lever is released, a few wipes
are executed.

non headlights):

beam is switched on.
To activate the headlight washer system, the
wiper lever must be pulled for a longer period
of time.
The headlight washer can be re-activated at
the earliest after five washing cycles.
The spray duration is limited.
Maintenance note
fIf heavily soiled, repeat wash.
fPersistent dirt (e.g. insect remains) should be
regularly removed.
Please observe the chapter “CAR CARE IN-
STRUCTIONS” on Page 284.
The front windscreen washer nozzles are heat-
ed when the ignition is on, as a precaution against
freezing. However, this does not replace the use
of antifreeze.
