Instrument Panel and Multi-Function Display
111
Coolant level warningThe temperature gauge warning light flashes if the
coolant level is too low.
The warning message “Check coolant level” also
appears on the multi-function display in the
instrument panel
f Switch off engine and allow to cool.
f Add coolant.
If the coolant level is too low, warning indicators
may light up if the vehicle tilts at an extreme angle
(e.g. steep slopes) or generates high lateral
acceleration while travelling round long bends
(e.g. driving in circles). If the warnings do not
disappear once the vehicle has assumed “normal”
operating state, check the coolant level.
f Please see the chapter “CHECKING COOLANT
LEVEL AND ADDING COOLANT” on page 257.
f Please see the chapter “OVERVIEW OF
WARNING MESSAGES” on page 152.
Caution!
Risk of engine damage.
f Do not continue driving if the warning persists
even when the engine coolant level is correct.
fHave the fault corrected.
F – Engine Oil Pressure GaugeThe oil pressure is controlled according to
requirements and should be at least 29 psi
(2.0 bar) at an engine speed of 3,000 rpm and
at least 44 psi (3.0 bar) at an engine speed of
5,000 rpm.
The engine oil pressure varies depending on the
engine speed, oil temperature and engine load.
If oil pressure drops abruptly and a message
is displayed on the multi-function display
when the engine is running or while driving:
f Stop immediately in a suitable place.
f Switch off the engine.
f Check whether there is an obvious oil leak on
or under the car.
f Select “Oil level ” on the multi-function display.
f Please see the chapter “OIL LEVEL DISPLAY
AND MEASUREMENT OF THE ENGINE OIL
LEVEL” on page 121.
f Add engine oil if necessary.
Caution!
Risk of engine damage.
f Do not continue driving if there is an obvious
oil leak.
f Do not continue driving if the warning message
appears even when the oil level is correct.
f Have the fault corrected.
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.
G – Fuel GaugeThe fuel gauge displays the contents of the tank
when the ignition is on.
For information on fuel qu ality and refill capacities:
f Please see the chapter “FILLING CAPACITIES”
on page 329.
For information on fuel and refuelling:
f Please see the chapter “FUEL” on page 265.
If the vehicle’s inclination changes (e.g. uphill/
downhill driving), minor deviations in the gauge
may occur.

Maintenance and Car Care
1. Unscrew cap on oil filler opening.
2. Top up engine oil according to the display on
the multi-function display.
One segment of the display corresponds to a
top-up quantity of approx. 0.26 US quarts
(0.25 liters).
3. Carefully close cap of the oil filler opening.
After opening the hood, the oil level can only
be measured after driving for at least 6 miles
(10 km).
Oil changeThe engine oil has to be changed regularly at the
intervals listed in your Maintenance Schedule .
f Please see the chapter “FILLING CAPACITIES”
on page 329.
We recommend that you have the engine oil
changed at your Porsche dealer, who has the
required oils and the necessary filling equipment.
If you suspect an oil leak in the engine have your
dealer check it out immediately.
All current engine oils are compatible with each
other, i.e. when making an oil change it is not
necessary to flush the engi ne if you wish to use a
different brand or grade of oil.
Since, however, each brand of oil has a special
composition, you should, if possible, use the
same oil brand if it beco mes necessary to top up
between oil changes.
Porsche engines have long intervals between oil
changes. You can make best use of these long oil
change intervals by usin g multigrade oils since
these are largely independent of seasonal
fluctuations in temperature.
If your vehicle is used frequently in stop-and-go
traffic in cold weather, the engine will not always
be properly warmed up.
Condensation from products of combustion may
accumulate in the oil. In this case, it is advisable
to change the oil more frequently so that your
engine once again has 100% efficient engine oil.
Engine oil performance class Engine oil is not only a lubricant, but also serves
to keep the engine clean, to neutralize the
contaminants which penetrates into the engine
through combustion and to protect the engine
against corrosion.
To perform these functions, the oil is provided with
additives which have been specially developed for
these functions.
The efficiency of an oil is expressed, for example,
by the API, ILSAC or ACEA classifications. Viscosity Like all liquids, engine oil is viscous when cold,
and thin-bodied when warm. The viscosity of an oil
is expressed by its SAE class. For cold viscosity
(measured at temperatures below 32 °
F/0 °
C) the
SAE class is given as a number and the letter “W”
(as in winter), for hot viscosity (measured at
212 °
F/100 °
C) the SAE class is given only as a
number.
The viscosity of an oil is, therefore, always the
same if it has the same number of an SAE class.
Oils with two viscosities are called multigrade oils;
oils with only one viscosity are termed single-
grade oils.
Single-grade oils can not be used in your engine.
The viscosity of the engine oil for your Porsche
has to be chosen according to the ambient
temperature given in the engine oil
recommendation table.

Tire Pressure and Technical Data

Filling CapacitiesOnly use fluids and fuels approved by Porsche. Your authorized Porsche dealer can advise you.Driving PerformanceThe specifications refer to a vehicle with DIN curb weight witho ut performance-reducing additional equipment (e.g. special tires).
Engine oil change quantity without/with oil filter Approx. 2.17
US gallons (8.2 liters)/approx. 2.38 US gallons (9.0 liters)
Fuel tank Panamera S:
Approx. 80 litres, of which approx. 3.96 US gallons (15 liters) are reserve
Panamera 4S, Panamera Turbo: Approx. 100 litres, including approx. 3.96 US gallons (15 liters)
reserve
Fuel octane rating The engine is designed to provide optimum perf
ormance and fuel consumption if unleaded premium
fuel with 98 RON/88 MON (93 CLC or AKI) is us ed. If unleaded fuels with octane ratings of less than
98 RON/88 MON (93 CLC or AKI) are used, the engine’s knock control automatically adapts the
ignition timing. Porsche recommends that you use fuel with at least 95 RON/85 MON (90 CLC or
AKI) in your vehicle.
