J - OdometerThe displays for the total mileage and individual
trips are located in the analog speedometer.
The upper display counts the total mileage, the
lower display counts the short trips.
After exceeding 6213 miles (9999 kilometers),
the short trip counter returns to 0.Resetting the short trip counter to “O”fPress button H for approx. 1 secondThe voltmeter indicates the vehicle electrical
system voltage.
Normal range: 12 to 16 volts.
The voltage may drop considerably when the
vehicle is being started.
If the indicator is continually below 12 volts
when the engine is running:
fPlease have the battery charging system
checked at an authorized Porsche dealer.
Battery/alternatorA warning message will appear on the multi-purpo-
se display of the instrument panel if the voltage
drops significantly.
fStop in a safe place and switch off the engine.
fFor information on the warning message on
the multi-purpose display:
Please see the chapter “OVERVIEW OF
WARNING MESSAGES” on Page 149.Possible causes
– Defect in the battery charging system
– Broken drive belt
Warning!
Risk of engine damage with resultant loss of
control and accident, leading to serious
personal injury or death.
A broken drive belt means there is no power
assistance to the steering (more effort is
required to steer) and engine cooling fails.
fDo not continue driving.
fHave the fault remedied at your nearest autho-
rized Porsche dealer.
Danger of steering assistance failing during
a long trip in the water if the drive belt slips.
fIf the steering assistance fails, more effort will be required to steer.

Displaying/resetting average
speed
Displaying range on remaining fuelThe range on remaining fuel is continuously
recomputed while driving based on fuel level,
current consumption and average consumption.
Displaying tire pressureThis display is available only in conjunction with the
Tire Pressure Monitoring option.
The current tire pressures at the actually present
levels are displayed in the “Tyre pressure” screen
of the on-board computer. These values would be
identical to those of a pressure gage connected to
the four valves. These pressures change while the
vehicle is being driven.
– The tire pressures increase as the temperature
in the tires rises, e.g. during high-speed
motorway driving.
– The tire pressures decrease as the tempera-
tures drop, e.g. during trips in cold regions
(such as mountains).
The values displayed therefore do not allow
conclusions to be drawn about possible pressure
deviations.
fIn order to display pressure deviations from
the prescribed pressure, select the menu item
TYRE PRESS. in the MAIN MENU.

Compass or PCM option.Displaying navigation informationNavigation information can also be displayed on

PRINCIPLE” on Page 124.
Setting Tire Pressure Monitoring
Danger!
Risk of serious personal injury or death.
Driving the vehicle with low tire pressure
increases risk of a tire failure and resulting
loss of control. Furthermore, low tire
pressure increases rate of wear of the
affected tires.
Despite the advantages offered by Tire
Pressure Monitoring, it is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is still the
driver’s responsibility to update the settings
in the multi-purpose display and maintain the
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation
has not reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of Tire Pressure Monitoring low tire
pressure message. Low tire pressure
reduces the road safety of the vehicle and
destroys the tire and wheel.
fWhen a flat tire has been displayed, immedi-
ately stop in a suitable place and check the
tires for damage. If necessary, remedy the damage with tire sealant or fit the spare wheel.
fDo not by any means continue to drive with
leaking tires.
fSealing the tire with the tire sealant is only an
emergency repair so you can drive to the next
authorized Porsche dealer.
The maximum permitted speed is 50 mph
(80 km/h).
fDefective tires must be immediately replaced
by an authorized Porsche dealer.
Tire repairs are not permissible under any
circumstances.
fDo not drive with tires whose tire pressure
drops again in a short period of time. Have
tires checked by an authorized Porsche dealer.
fIf Tire Pressure Monitoring is defective (e.g.
defective wheel transmitters), contact an
authorized Porsche dealer immediately and
have the damage repaired.
The tire pressure will not be monitored by
defective Tire Pressure Monitoring.
For information on warning messages on the
multi-purpose display: Please see the chapter
“OVERVIEW OF WARNING MESSAGES” on
Page 149.
fTire Pressure Monitoring gives a warning about
tire damage due to insufficient tire pressure as
well as about a gradual loss of pressure due to
foreign objects. Tire Pressure Monitoring
cannot warn you about tire damage that
occurs suddenly (e.g. flat tire due to acute
external effects).
