Starting and Stopping the EngineThe immobilizer can be deactivated and the
engine started only using an authorised
ignition key.
fPlease see the chapter “IMMOBILIZER” on
page 250.
Warning!
Risk of poisoning. Exhaust gas contains
colorless and odorless carbon monoxide
(CO), which is toxic even in low
concentrations. Carbon monoxide can cause
unconsciousness and even death if inhaled.
f Never start or let the engine run in an
enclosed, unventilated area. It is not
recommended to sit in your car for prolonged
periods with the engine on and the car not
moving.
An unattended vehicle with a running engine
is potentially hazardous. If warning lights
should come on to indicate improper
operation, they would go unnoticed.
f Never leave the engine idling unattended.
Danger of fire close to the hot exhaust
system.
f Do not park or drive your vehicle where
combustible materials, such as dry grass or
leaves, can come into contact with the hot
exhaust system. For information on the emission control system:
f
Please see the chapter “EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEM” on page 262.
f If your car catches on fire for any reason, call
the fire department. Do not endanger your life
by attempting to put out the fire.
Starting the vehicle f Operate the footbrake.
f Move PDK selector lever to position P or N.
f Do not press the accelerator pedal.
The engine control unit will provide the correct
starting mixture.

completed automatically as soon as ignition
lock position 2 (start engine) is reached.
The ignition key or control unit is reset
automatically to ignition lock position 1
(ignition on).
f Do not operate the starter for more than
approx. 10 seconds. If necessary, repeat the
starting procedure after a pause of approx.
10 seconds. Turn the ignition key back to
ignition lock position 0 (initial position) first.
The first operation of the starter is ended
automatically when the engine starts.
If the engine does not start, subsequent
starter operations will not be ended
automatically.

168
Driving and Driving Safety
f
Do not warm up the engine when stationary.
Drive off immediately. Avoid high revs and full
throttle until the engine has reached operating
temperature.
f If the vehicle battery power is too weak, the
engine can be started with jump leads.
For information on jump-lead starting:
f Please see the chapter “EXTERNAL POWER
SUPPLY, JUMP-LEAD STARTING” on
page 306.
Note on operation
To ensure a good battery charge condition,
thereby ensuring that the battery will start the
engine, all electrical loads that are not required
should be switched off when the ignition is
switched on and when engine revs are low
(in traffic jams, in city traffic or in queues).
Stoppingf Only remove the ignition key when the vehicle
is stationary.
f Only switch the ignition off when the vehicle is
stationary, as there is no power steering and
brake booster assistance when the engine is
switched off.
f When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
ignition key, apply the electric parking brake
and engage selector-lever position P .
The control unit always remains in the ignition
lock on vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive .
Warning!
Danger of injury. Hot engine compartment
components can burn skin on contact.
f Before 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
coming into contact with the exhaust pipe.
The exhaust pipe is hot wh en the vehicle is running
and remains hot for some time after the vehicle is
turned off. f
To 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 painful skin
burns.
Radiator fanFor information on radiator fans:
f Please see the chapter “RADIATOR FANS” on
page 258.
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.
f Carry out work in these areas only with the
engine off and exercise extreme caution,
always anticipating that the fan blade could suddenly start to run.
