Danger of steering assistance failing during
a long journey in water if the drive belt slips.
f If steering assistance fails, more effort will be required to steer.
Check Engine
(Emission Control)The emission control system detects malfunctions
that could cause increased pollutant emissions or
consequential damage etc. well in advance.
Faults are indicated by the warning light on the
instrument panel which then either lights up
continuously or flashes.
The faults are recorded in the control unit’s
fault memory.
The warning light on the instrument panel lights up
when the ignition is switched on as a lamp check
and goes out approx. 1 second after the engine
starts.
The warning light on the instrument panel flashes
to indicate operating states (e.g. engine misfiring)
which may cause damage to certain parts of the
emission control system.
f In this case, immediately reduce the engine
load by easing off the accelerator pedal.
In order to avoid consequential damage to the
engine or the exhaust-gas cleaning system
(e.g. catalytic converter):
f Please contact a qualified specialist workshop.
We recommend that you have an authorized
Porsche dealer to do this work as they have
trained workshop personnel and the necessary
parts and tools.
Caution!
Risk of damage. If the warning light on the
instrument panel continues flashing even
when you have eased off the accelerator
pedal, the emission control system may
overheat.
f Stop as soon as possible in a safe place.
Make sure that combustible materials, such as
dry grass or leaves, cannot come into contact
with the hot exhaust system.
f Switch off the engine.
fHave the fault corrected.Acoustic SignalsA speaker in the instrument panel generates
acoustic signals.
If the speaker is faulty, a warning will appear and
the speaker will no longer make an acoustic signal
(i. e. sound).

Use only the pressure differences shown in the
“Fill info” display in the tire pressure menu or
from the corresponding tire pressure warning
when correcting the tire pressure.
f Tires can lose air over time without a tire
defect being present. A tire pressure warning
will then appear on the multi-function display.
Check the tire pressure at the next opportunity.
Warning!
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPM
malfunction indicator to in dicate when the system
is not operating properly.
The TPM malfunction indicator is combined with
the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one minute and
then remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended.
TPM malfunctions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of replacement
or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPM from functioning properly.
f Always check the TPM malfunction telltale after
replacing one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPM to continue to function properly. The warning light in the instrument panel lights up:
– When a loss in pressure has been detected.
– In the event of a defect in Tire Pressure
Monitoring or a temporary fault.
– When learning new fitted wheels/wheel transmitters, as long as the vehicle’s own
wheels have not ye t been recognized.
The tire pressure warning light on the instrument
panel goes out only when the cause of the fault
has been rectified.Warning light

Instrument Panel and Multi-Function Display
If necessary, fill in ti
re sealant and set the
correct tire pressure.
This tire pressure warning also appears when
driving and can be acknowledged.
The tire pressure warning light on the instrument
panel goes out only when the tire pressure has
been corrected.
System learningTire Pressure Monitoring begins to “learn” the
wheels after a wheel change, wheel transmitter
replacement or update of the tire settings . During
this process, Tire Pressu re Monitoring recognizes
the wheels and their locations.
The following message appears on the multi-
function display (example):
“No monitoring, system is learning”.
The wheel learning process takes place
exclusively when the vehicle is being driven
(vehicle speed above 16 mph (25 km/h)).
Tire Pressure Monitoring requires a certain
amount of time to learn the wheels. During this
time, the current tire pressures are not available
on the multi-function display:
– The tire pressure warning light remains lit until all wheels have been learned.
– Lines (-.-) appear on the display of the “Tire pressure” function. – The required pressures for cold tires (68 °F
(20 °C)) are indicated under “Fill info” in the tire
pressure menu.
Position and pressure information is displayed as
soon as Tire Pressure Monitoring has assigned
the wheels recognized as belonging to the vehicle
to the correct wheel positions.
f Check the tire pressure for all wheels under
“Fill info ”.
f Correct the tire pressure to the required
pressure if necessary.
Changing a wheel and replacing tiresfNew wheels must be fitted with radio
transmitters for Tire Pressure Monitoring.
Before tires are changed, the battery charge
condition of the wheel transmitters should be
checked.
Please contact a qualified specialist workshop.
We recommend that you have an authorized
Porsche dealer to do this work as they have
trained workshop personnel and the necessary
parts and tools.
f Switch off the ignition when changing a wheel.
The tire settings on the mu lti-function display must
be updated after changing a wheel.
If the tire settings are not updated, the message
“Tire change? Update settings!” is displayed on the
multi-function display.
f Update the multi-function display settings the
next time the vehicle is stationary.
Pressure increase as the result of
temperature increaseIn accordance with physical principles, the tire
pressure changes as the temperature
changes.The tire pressure increases or decreases
by 0.1 bar (1.5 psi) for
every 18 °F (10 °C) change in temperature.Partial monitoringMonitoring of the other wheels is continued if there
is a fault in one or two wheel transmitters.
– The tire pressure warning light lights up.
– The message “Restricted monitoring” appears
on the multi-function display.
– No tire pressures are displayed on the multi-function display for wheels with faulty
wheel transmitters.

Instrument Panel and Multi-Function Display

No monitoringIn the event of faults, Tire Pressure Monitoring
cannot monitor the tire pressure.
The warning light on the instrument panel lights up
and a corresponding message appears on the
multi-function display.
Monitoring is not active:
– if Tire Pressure Monitoring is faulty,
– if wheel transmitters for Tire Pressure Monitoring are missing,
– during the learning phase after the tire settings have been updated,
– after a wheel change without updating the tire settings,
– if more than four wheel transmitters are recognized,
– if there is external interference by other radio sources, e.g. wireless headphones,
– if tire temperatures are too high.
