The reminder SPARE WHEEL/SEALING SET
OPERATION? goes out automatically after approx.
10 seconds if no selection is made during this
time. The original selection “YES” is then
maintained.In the event of faults, Tire Pressure Monitoring
cannot monitor the tire pressure. A distinction is
made between partial monitoring and inactive
system.
In the case of partial monitoring, the tire pressure
warning light on the speedometer flashes about
60 seconds and lights up thereafter permanently.
No message is output on the multi-purpose
display.
If Tire Pressure Monitoring is not active, the tire
pressure warning light on the speedometer
flashes about 60 seconds and lights up thereafter
permanently. A corresponding message is output
on the multi-purpose display.
The warning light goes out as soon as all faults
have been remedied.
Tire Pressure Monitoring switches to partial
monitoring if:
– there are up to two wheel transmitters not
present or faulty (e.g. a spare wheel or collap-
sible spare wheel is fitted that does not have a
wheel transmitter).
In the event of partial monitoring, the value “_” is
displayed in the sub-menu TYRE PRESSURE (filling
information) at the position of the faulty or missing
wheel transmitter.
Tire Pressure Monitoring is not active in the
following cases:
– Tire Pressure Monitoring is faulty,– at least three wheel transmitters for Tire
Pressure Monitoring are faulty or not present,
– temporarily after changing a wheel,
– too many wheel transmitters have been
detected,
– there is external interference by other radio
sources, e.g. wireless headphones,
– tire temperatures are too high.

Notes on tire pressurePressure increase as the result of tempera-
ture increase
In accordance with physical principles, the tire
pressure changes as the temperature changes.
The tire pressure increases or decreases by
around 1.5 psi (0.1 bar) for every 18 °F (10 °C)
change in temperature.
Tire pressure specifications
The tire pressure must match the prescribed value
(required pressure).
You can find information on the tire pressure for
cold tires 68 °F (20 °C):

Car Telephone and Aftermarket Alarms Important legal and safety information
regarding the use of cellular telephones
Some states may prohibit the use of cellular tele-
phones while driving a vehicle. Check the laws and
regulations on the use of cellular telephones in the
areas where you drive.
Danger!
Risk of an accident.
Severe personal injury or death can result in
the event of an accident.
Looking away from the road or turning your
attention away from your driving can cause
an accident and lead to serious personal
injury or death.
When using your cellular telephone, you should
always:
fGive full attention to your driving - pull off the
road and park before making or answering a
call if traffic conditions so require; andfKeep both hands on the steering wheel - use
hands-free operation (if available) - pull off the
road and park before using a hand-held tele-
phone.
It is essential to observe the telephone
manufacturer's instructions before operating
the telephone.
Any portable telephone or radio transmitter which
is used in a Porsche must be properly installed in
accordance with the technical requirements of
Porsche.
The transmission power must not exceed
10 W.
The devices must possess a type approval for
your vehicle and have an “e” symbol.
If you should require equipment with transmission
power values greater than 10 W, please consult
your authorized Porsche dealer for this purpose.
He is familiar with the technical requirements for
installing devices of this kind.
The antennas for all radios and telephones with a
transmitting antenna must be externally mounted.
The improper installation of radios or telephones
or use of a radio or telephone with a transmitting
antenna inside the car may cause the warning
lights to come on.
Improper installation of such equipment can
create a discharged battery or excessive current
draw from added equipment.

Luggage Compartment, Loadspace and Storage If aftermarket systems are installed by non-dealer-
ship technicians or outside the selling dealer,
problems may result. Installation of aftermarket
equipment is not covered under the New Car
Warranty.
fConsult your authorized Porsche dealer about
the installation of non Porsche approved equip-
ment.
Reception quality
The reception quality of your car telephone will
change constantly when you are driving. Interfe-
rence caused by buildings, landscape and wea-
ther is unavoidable. It may become particularly
difficult to hear when using the hands-free function
due to external noise such as engine and wind
noise.
Automatic car-wash
fUnscrew external antennas before using an au-
tomatic car-wash.
Porsche Communication
Management (PCM)
Warning!
There is danger of accident if you set or
operate the on-board computer, radio, navi-
gation system, telephone or other equipment
when driving.
This could distract you from traffic and
cause you to lose control of the vehicle re-
sulting in serious personal injury or death.
fOperate the components while driving only if
the traffic situation allows you to do so safely.
fCarry out any complicated operating or setting
procedures only with the vehicle stationary.
fIf it is necessary to operate these components
while the vehicle is in motion, use the function keys on the multi-functional steering wheel.
fRefer to the separate operating instructions
before putting the PCM into operation.
When put into operation for the first time, a
distance of approx. 3 miles (5 km) must be driven
in order for the navigation system to complete the
process of fine calibration. The same applies
when the tires are changed (e.g. summer/winter
tires) or new tires fitted. Full location accuracy is
not yet achieved during the fine-calibration
process.If the vehicle has been transported (e.g. ferry, car
train), the system may take a few minutes after
being switched on before it determines the current
location.
Serious tire slip (e.g. spinning wheels on snow)
may result in temporarily inaccurate navigation.
When the battery has been disconnected, it may
take up to 15 minutes before the navigation
system is operational once more.
Satellite radioYou must have the satellite radio activated before
you can put it into operation. You will need a
contract with a provider in order to use this radio.
fRefer to the separate radio operating instruc-
tions before putting into operation.
