Multi-Purpose Display and Instruments
121
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.
