Maintenance and Car Care
277
Leather careThe natural surface markings of leather,
e.g. creases, healed scars, insect sting marks,
structural differences and slight variations in
shade and grain add to the attractiveness of the
high-quality natural leather product.
Observe the following care instructions:
Caution!
The leather will be damaged by the use of
unsuitable cleaning and care agents and by
inappropriate treatment.
fDo not use caustic cleaners or hard cleaning
objects!
fPerforated leather must under no circum-stances get wet on its reverse side.
fAll types of leather should be cleaned regularly
to remove fine dust using a soft, damp, white
woollen cloth or a commercially available
microfibre cloth.
fRemove heavy contamination with a leather
cleaner.
Please always follow the instructions for use
given on the containers.
We recommend the Porsche leather care
product.
fOnce cleaned, leather (particularly the heavily
stressed leather seats) must be treated only
with Porsche leather care product.
Carpets and matsfUse only a vacuum cleaner or a medium stiff
brush.
fRemove stains and spots with Porsche stain
remover.
The Porsche range of accessories includes floor-
mats to protect the carpets in summer and winter.
Warning!
Risk of an accident resulting in serious
personal injury or death.
fAlways check the movement of the pedals
before driving and make sure that they are not
obstructed by a floor mat or any other object.
fSecure the floor mat to prevent it from sliding
into positions that could interfere with the safe
operation of your vehicle – do not lay them
loosely in the vehicle.
Your Porsche dealer will be glad to offer you
floor mats of correct size including a securing possibility.
Cleaning airbags covers
Danger!
There is a danger of serious personal injury
or death if the airbag system is impaired by
improper cleaning work.
fDo not make any modifications whatsoever on
individual components such as the padded
covers of the steering wheel, the passenger
side of the dashboard, the front seats, the roof
pillars and the rooflinings.
fLet your authorized Porsche dealer clean these components.
Cleaning fabric liningsFabric linings on pillars, headliner and sun visors,
etc., must be treated only using suitable cleaning
agents or a suitable dry foam and a soft brush.

Changing fusesIn order to prevent damage to the electrical
system due to short circuits and overloads, the
individual circuits are protected by fuses.
One fuse box is in the engine compartment. Two
additional fuse boxes are located in the outer ends
of the dashboard.
1. Switch off the consumer with the defective
fuse. Before replacing a fuse, switch off all
electrical consumers and remove the ignition
key.
2. Open the fuse-box lid.
3. Remove the corresponding fuse from its slot to
check it using the plastic gripper.
A blown fuse can be identified by the melted
metal strip.
4. Replace only with fuses with the same rated
current. We recommend using genuine
Porsche fuses for replacement.
Note
If a fuse blows repeatedly, please consult an
authorized Porsche dealer immediately, so that
the short circuit can be located and corrected.
fNever try to “repair“ fuses: you may cause
serious damage to other parts of the electrical
system.
