material.

with every refueling.

Seat and Headrest
Danger!
The seat may move unexpectedly if you
attempt to adjust while driving. This could
cause sudden loss of control, resulting in
serious personal injury or death.
fDo not adjust seats while the vehicle is in mo-
tion.The backrest locks must be engaged at all
times while the vehicle is in motion.
Safety belts only offer protection when the
backrest is upright and the belts are properly
positioned on the body.
Improperly positioned safety belts or safety
belts worn by passengers in an excessively
reclined position can cause serious personal
injury or death in an accident.
fDo not operate the car with the driver or pas-
senger backrests excessively reclined.
Please see the chapter “SEAT POSITION” on
Page 36.
fPorsche recommends the use of L.A.T.C.H.
(Lower Anchorage and Tether for Children)
equipped Porsche child seats.
Risk of injury if persons or animals are in the
movement range of the seat during seat ad-
justment.
fAdjust the seat so that no-one is put a risk.Your vehicle is equipped with a total of five head-
rests in the backrests of the front and rear seats.
The height of the headrests in the front and back
seats is adjustable. All headrests are removable.
All occupants, including the driver, should not
operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat until the
headrests and backrests are placed in their pro-
per positions so that the risk of neck injuries is
minimized in the event of a crash.
For proper positioning and operation of the head-
rest, the backrest’s inclination should be adjusted
such that the headrest is in an upright position.
Driver and passengers should be seated upright
and in the center of their seats.
Adjusting headrests

Improperly positioned headrests can cause
serious personal injury or death in an acci-
dent.

Seats, Mirrors and Steering Wheel
Seat positionA correct sitting position is important for safe and
fatigue-free driving. We recommend the following
procedure for adjusting the driver’s seat to suit
individual requirements:
1. Adjust the seat height to give yourself enough
headroom and an unobstructed view outside
the vehicle.
2. Adjust the seat until, with the accelerator pedal
fully depressed, your leg is straight but your
entire foot still rests on the accelerator pedal.
3. Grip the top half of the steering wheel. Set the
backrest angle and steering wheel position so
that your arms are almost outstretched.
However, your shoulders must still rest on the
backrest.
4. If necessary, correct the seat fore-and-aft
adjustment.
5. Adjust the height of the headrest so that the
upper edge is at eye level or higher.
Adjusting the seatA Front seat height adjustment.
B Rear seat height adjustment.C Fore and aft adjustment.
D Backrest angle adjustment.
E Lumbar support adjustment.
To permit a relaxed sitting posture, the back-
rest curvature is infinitely adjustable in vertical
and horizontal directions for individual pelvis
and spinal column support.
fPress the switch in the direction indicated by
the arrows until the desired setting is reached.
