Off-road roof-mounted Headlights
Cayenne S TranssyberiafPlease read the separate instructions for fitting
and operating the off-road roof-mounted
headlights.DisclaimerThe off-road roof-mounted headlights provided
with your Cayenne S Transsyberia have been
designed and manufactured solely for off-road
use. The use of these lights while on a public road
in your country may not be legal or may be legal
only under specified conditions. Check your
national, state/provincial and local laws or
regulations regarding any restrictions and/or
limitations for public highway use prior to
installation. It is common in many countries, for
example, that such roof-mounted headlights must
be hooded or covered while you are on a public
road.
Under no circumstances should the electrical
circuits for these lights be connected to the
circuits for the other lights provided with your
vehicle.
Safety Notes!
fCompletely remove the off-road roof-mounted
headlights before using an automatic car wash
– risk of damage to the vehicle!
fBefore every trip, and at regular intervals
during long trips, check that the off-road
roof-mounted headlights are secured to the
vehicle properly.
fWith the off-road roof-mounted headlights
fitted, do not exceed a maximum speed of
110 mph (180 km/h).
Nevertheless, Porsche recommends that you
do not exceed the posted speed limit.
fDriving, braking and steering behaviour
change due to the higher center of gravity and
the greater wind-resistant area. You should
adapt your driving style appropriately.
fSince fuel consumption and noise are
increased when the off-road roof-mounted
headlights are fitted, they should not remain on the vehicle when not in use.
Note on operation
If the engine is not running and the off-road
roof-mounted headlights are switched on, the
vehicle battery will be discharged.
Switching the off-road roof-mounted
headlights on/offThe off-road roof-mounted headlights are ready for
operation when the side lights are switched on.
fSwitch the off-road roof-mounted headlights on
and off using the button in the roof console.

Car Audio Operation/TipsFor radio operation see your radio manual
which is included with your on-board litera-
ture.FM receptionA vehicle is not an ideal place to listen to a radio.
Because the vehicle moves, reception conditions
are constantly changing.
Buildings, terrain, signal distance and noise from
other vehicles are all working against good recep-
tion.
Some conditions affecting FM may appear to be
problems when they are not.
The following characteristics are completely
normal for a given reception area, and they do not
indicate any problem with the radio itself.
Note
Electronic accessories should only be installed by
your authorized Porsche dealer.
Equipment which has not been tested and
approved by Porsche may impair radio reception.Fading and drifting
FM range is limited to about 25 miles (40 km),
except for some high power stations.
If a vehicle is moving away from the desired
station's transmitter, the signal will tend to fade
and/or drift. This condition is more prevalent with
FM than AM, and is often accompanied by
distortion.
Fading and drifting can be minimized to a certain
degree by careful attention to fine tuning or selec-
tion of a stronger signal.
Static and fluttering
When the line-of-sight link between a transmitter
and vehicle is blocked by large buildings or moun-
tains, the radio sound may be accompanied with
static or fluttering because of the characteristic of
FM.
In a similar effect, a fluttering noise is sometimes
heard when driving along a tree-lined road.
This static and fluttering can be reduced by
adjusting the tone control for greater bass
response until the disturbance has passed.Multipath
Because of the reflecting characteristics of FM, di-
rect and reflected signals may reach the antenna
at the same time (multipath) and cancel each other
out.
As a vehicle moves through these electronic dead
spots, the listener may hear a momentary flutter
or loss of reception.
Station swapping
When two FM stations are close to each other, and
an electronic dead spot, such as static or multi-
path area, interrupts the original signal, some-
times the stronger second signal will be selected
automatically until the original one returns.
This swapping can also occur as you drive away
from the selected station and approach another
station of a stronger signal.10_Cayenne_21_KW17.book Seite 218 Donnerstag, 9. April 2009 3:33 15

fWhen not in use, take the disc out of the player,
put the disc back into its case and store it
away from dust, heat, damp and direct sun-
light.
Leaving the disc on the dashboard in the sun
can damage the disc.fIf the disc gets dirty, clean the disc by wiping
the surfaces from the center to the outside in
a radial direction with a soft cloth.
Do not use a conventional record cleaner or
anti-static record preservative.
Disc cleaners are available in audio stores.
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.
