Programming a button on the keypad
Caution!
Risk of damage. When programming a gara-
ge door or gate, the door or gate may open
and close several times in quick succession,
causing the motor to overheat.
fUnplug the garage door or gate during the pro-
gramming procedure to prevent the motor from overheating.
1. Press and hold the desired button on the
keypad until light-emitting diode B starts to
flash slowly (may take up to 20 seconds).
Do not release the button before step 3 has
been completed.2. Hold the original remote control approx.
5–30 cm in front of the marked position C.
Make sure that the battery in the original
remote control is new.
3. Press and hold the button on the original remo-
te control until light-emitting diode B flashes ra-
pidly.
The rapidly flashing LED B confirms that the re-
mote control function has been programmed
successfully.
Only release both buttons when LED B flashes.
4. Press the programmed button on keypad A.
If the light-emitting diode B lights up conti-
nuously after programming, this means that
the system is a fixed-code system. Program-
ming is now completed.
If light-emitting diode B again flashes rapidly
for a short time after programming and then
lights up continuously for approx. 2 seconds,
this means that the system is a changeable-
code system. HomeLink must then be synchro-
nized with the receiver of the garage door ope-
ner after programming.
5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 to program the other
buttons.
Synchronization for changeable-code
systems
1. To synchronize the system:
Press the programming button on the receiver
of the garage door opener.
Afterwards, you usually have approx.
30 seconds to initiate step 2.2. Press the previously programmed button on
the keypad three times (for approx. 1 second).
Changeable-code synchronization is now com-
pleted.
3. Repeat steps 1 to 2 to synchronize other
signals to the other buttons.
Note
fPlease consult an authorized Porsche dealer if
you have not been able to successfully assign
signals to the buttons even though you have
carefully followed the instructions in this
section and the operating instructions for the
original remote control. Your authorized
Porsche dealer also has a list of all compatible
garage door opener systems.
Operating the garage door openerfPress the corresponding button on keypad A.
Light-emitting diode B lights up continuously
during signal transmission with fixed-code
systems.
In the case of signal transmission for change-
able-code systems, light-emitting diode B
repeatedly lights up rapidly for a short time
and then lights up continuously for approx.
2seconds.

Maintenance and Car Care
Exercise Extreme Caution when
Working on your Vehicle
Danger!
Ignoring the following instructions may cau-
se serious personal injury or death.
fThe engine compartment of any motor vehicle
is a potentially hazardous area. If you are not
fully familiar with proper repair procedures, do
not attempt the adjustments described on the
following pages.
This caution applies to the entire vehicle.
fO n l y w o r k o n y o u r v e h i c l e o u t d o o r s o r i n a w e l l
ventilated area.
fEnsure that there are no open flames in the
area of your vehicle at any time when fuel
fumes might be present. Be especially
cautious of such devices such as hot water
heaters which ignite a flame intermittently.
fBefore working on any part in the engine
compartment, turn the engine off and let it cool
down sufficiently. Hot engine compartment
components can burn skin on contact.
fBe alert and cautious around engine at all
times while the engine is running.
If you have to work on the engine while it is
running, always put the parking brake on and
put the gearshift lever in neutral or the
Tiptronic selector lever in position P or N.fIn particular, be very careful to ensure that
items of clothing (ties, shirt, sleeves etc.),
jewelry, long hair, hand or fingers cannot get
caught in the fan, belts or other moving parts.
The radiator and radiator fans are in the front
of the car.
The fans can start or continue running as a
function of temperature, even with the engine
switched off.
Carry out work in these areas only with the
engine off and exercise extreme caution.
fYour Porsche is equipped with an electronic
ignition system. When the ignition is on, high
voltage is present in all wires connected with
the ignition system; therefore, exercise
extreme caution when working on any part of
the engine while the ignition is on or the engine
is running.
fAlways support your car with safety stands if it
is necessary to work under the car. The jack
supplied with the car is not adequate for this
purpose.
For vehicles with air suspension with level
control and height adjustment switch off level
control.
Please see the chapter “RAISING VEHICLE
WITH THE JACK” on Page 192.fWhen working under the car without safety
stands but with the wheels on the ground,
make sure the car is on level ground, the
wheels are blocked, and that the engine can-
not be started.
Withdraw ignition keys (switch ignition off in
vehicles that have Porsche Entry & Drive).
fDo not smoke or allow an open flame around
the battery or fuel.
Keep a fire extinguisher close at hand.
fIncomplete or improper servicing may cause
problems in the operation of the car. If in doubt
about any servicing, have it done by your
authorized Porsche dealer.
Improper maintenance during the warranty
period may affect your Porsche warranty
coverage.
fSupplies of fluids, e.g. engine oil, washer fluid,
brake fluid or coolant, are hazardous to your
health.
Keep these fluids out of children's reach and
dispose of them in accordance with the appro-
priate regulations.
fSome countries require additional tools and
special spare parts to be carried in your
vehicle. Please make enquiries before driving
abroad.

Wiper BladesMaintenance Notes
Wiper blades that are in perfect condition are vital
for a clear view.
fReplace the wiper blades twice per year
(before and after the cold season) or if wiper
performance deteriorates or the blades are
damaged.
fFor important information on “service topics”:
Please see the chapter “CAR CARE
INSTRUCTIONS” on Page 270.
Caution!
Risk of damage if wiper arm accidentally
falls back onto the windshield.
fAlways hold the wiper arm securely when
replacing the wiper blade.
Risk of damage if wiper blades that are
frozen in place are loosened improperly.
fThaw the wiper blades before loosening them.
Risk of damage.
If the wiper blades are not changed properly,
they can come loose when the car is moving.
fCheck whether the wiper blades are seated
securely.
The wiper blade must be pushed onto the wiper arm up to the stop. fPeriodically clean the wiper blades with
window cleaner, especially after the vehicle
has been washed in a car wash.
We recommend the Porsche window cleaner. If
they are very dirty (e.g. with insect remains),
they can be cleaned with a sponge or cloth.
If the wiper blades rub or squeak, this may be as
a result of the following:
– If the vehicle is washed in an automatic car
wash, wax residues may adhere to the wind-
shield. These wax residues can be removed
only by using window cleaner concentrate.
fPlease see the chapter “WASHER FLUID” on
Page 258.
Please contact your authorized Porsche dealer for
further information.
– The wiper blades may be damaged or worn.
fReplace damaged or worn wiper blades as
soon as possible.
Replacing wiper blades at frontfApply the parking brake.
fSwitch the windshield wipers off (wiper stalk in
position 0).
fSwitch ignition off.
1. Fold windshield wiper arm away from the
windshield (arrow 1).

Emission Control SystemIn the interest of clean airPollution of our environment has become a
problem that is of increasing concern to all of us.
We urge you to join us in our efforts for cleaner air
in controlling the pollutants emitted from the auto-
mobile.
Porsche has developed an emission control
system that controls or reduces those parts of the
emission that can be harmful to our environment.
Your Porsche is equipped with such a system.
Porsche warrants the Emission Control System in
your new car under the terms and conditions set
forth in the Warranty Booklet.
You, as the owner of the vehicle, have the respon-
sibility to provide regular maintenance service for
the vehicle and to keep a record of all mainte-
nance work performed. To facilitate record
keeping, have the service performed by
authorized Porsche dealers. They have Porsche
trained technicians and special tools to provide
fast and efficient service.To assure efficient operation of the Emission
Control System:
fHave your vehicle maintained properly and in
accordance with the recommendations
described in your Maintenance Booklet. Lack
of proper maintenance, as well as improper
use of the vehicle, will impair the function of
the emission control system and could lead to
damage.
fDo not alter or remove any component of the
emission control system.
fDo not alter or remove any device, such as
heat shields, switches, ignition wires, valves,
etc., which are designed to protect your
vehicle's emission control system. In addition
to serious engine damage, this can result in a
fire if excess raw fuel reaches the exhaust
system.
fDo not continue to operate your vehicle if you
detect engine misfire or other unusual opera-
ting conditions.

Maintenance and Car Care
Operating Your Porsche in other
CountriesGovernment regulations in the United States and
Canada require that automobiles meet specific
emission regulations and safety standards. There-
fore, cars built for the U.S. and Canada differ from
vehicles sold in other countries.
If you plan to take your Porsche outside the conti-
nental limits of the United States or Canada, there
is the possibility that
– unleaded fuel may not be available;
– unleaded fuel may have a considerably lower
octane rating. Excessive engine knock and
serious damage to both engine and catalytic
converters could result;
– service may be inadequate due to lack of
proper service facilities, tools or diagnostic
equipment;
– replacement parts may not be available or very
difficult to get.
Porsche cannot be responsible for the me-
chanical damage that could result because
of inadequate fuel, service or parts availabi-
lity.
If you purchased your Porsche abroad and want to
bring it back home, be sure to find out about ship-
ping and forwarding requirements, as well as
current import and customs regulations.
Fuel
Warning!
Fuel is highly flammable and harmful to
health.
fFire, open flame and smoking are prohibited
when handling fuel.
fAvoid contact with skin or clothing.
fDo not inhale fuel vapours.
To prevent damage to the emission control
system and engine:
fNever drive the tank completely out of fuel.
fAvoid high cornering speeds after the warning lights have come on.
To avoid permanent damage to the functionality of
the catalytic converters and oxygen sensors, use
only unleaded fuel.
The engine is designed to provide optimum
performance and fuel consumption if unleaded
premium fuel with 98 RON/88 MON is used.
If unleaded premium fuels with octane numbers of
at least 95 RON/85 MON are used, the
engine's knock control automatically adapts the
ignition timing.The emission control system can be damaged in
various ways (e.g. fueling incorrectly, shortage of
fuel, tow-starting).
fPlease see the chapter “HOW EMISSION
CONTROL WORKS” on Page 264.
fPlease see the chapter “DISPLAYING STATUS
OF LEVEL CONTROL” on Page 131.

Maintenance and Car Care

Fuel RecommendationsYour Porsche is equipped with catalytic conver-
ters and must use UNLEADED FUEL ONLY.
Your engine is designed to provide optimum
performance and fuel economy using unleaded
premium fuel with an octane rating of 98 RON
(93 CLC or AKI). Porsche therefore recom-
mends the use of these fuels in your vehicle.
Porsche also recognizes that these fuels may not
always be available. Be assured that your vehicle
will operate properly on unleaded premium fuels
with octane numbers of at least 95 RON
(90 CLC or AKI), since the engine's “Electronic
Octane™ knock control” will adapt the ignition
timing, if necessary.
It is important to observe the regular service inter-
vals, and particularly the oil change intervals, spe-
cified in your Maintenance Schedule.
The use of UNLEADED FUEL ONLY is critically
important to the life of the catalytic
converters. Deposits from leaded fuels will
ruin the converters and make it ineffective
as an emission control device.
Cars with catalytic converters have a smaller fuel
tank opening, and gas station pumps have smaller
nozzles. This will prevent accidental pumping of
leaded fuel into cars with catalytic converters.Unleaded fuels may not be available outside the
continental U.S. and Canada. Therefore, we
recommend you do not take your car to areas or
countries where unleaded fuel may not be
available.
Octane ratingsOctane rating indicates a fuel's ability to resist
detonation. Therefore, buying the correct octane
gas is important to prevent engine “damage”.
The RON octane rating is based on the research
method. The CLC (U.S. Cost of Living Council oc-
tane rating) or AKI (antiknock index) octane rating
usually displayed on U.S. fuel pumps is calculated
as research octane number plus motor octane
number, divided by 2, that is written as:
The CLC or AKI octane rating is usually lower than
the RON rating:
For example: 95 RON corresponds 90 CLC or
“AKI”
fDo not use fuel additives without Porsche
approval.
Fuels containing ethanolfDo not use any fuels containing more than 10
percent ethanol by volume.
We recommend, however, to change to a different
fuel or station if any of the following problems
occur with your vehicle:
– Deterioration of driveability and performance.
– Substantially reduced fuel economy.
– Vapor lock and non-start problems, especially
at high altitude or at high temperature.
– Engine malfunction or stalling.
