Practical Tips, Minor Repairs
Replacing the batteryThe service life of the battery is subject to normal
wear; it depends greatly on care, climatic condi-
tions, and driving conditions (distances, loads).
fOnly use an original Porsche battery, with the
correct part number, as a replacement. Only
this battery meets the specific requirements of
the vehicle.
fPlease observe the disposal instructions for
batteries.
Battery chargingAutomotive batteries loose their efficiency when
not in use. The charge available in your battery can
be measured with a battery hydrometer. We rec-
ommend that the battery voltage be tested by
your Porsche dealer who has the appropriate
equipment.
If the car is not driven for prolonged periods, the
battery must be charged at least every 6 weeks.
A discharged battery allows rapid formation of sul-
fates, leading to premature deterioration of the
plates.
Danger!
Hydrogen gas generated by the battery
could cause an explosion, resulting in severe
personal injuries.
fCharge battery in a well ventilated area.
fNever charge a frozen battery. It may explode
because of gas trapped in the ice. Allow a fro-
zen battery to thaw out first.
fIf you get electrolyte, which is an acid, in your
eyes or on your skin, immediately rinse with
cold water for several minutes and call a doc-tor.
Note
Your authorized Porsche dealer will be pleased to
advise you about a suitable charger.Slow battery charging
1. Pay attention to all warnings and follow instruc-
tions that come with your battery charger.
2. When charging, ensure adequate ventilation.
3. Remove battery.
Please observe the chapter “REMOVING AND
INSTALLING BATTERY” on Page 323.
4. All vent caps should be open.The fluid level
should meet the indicator mark in each cell.
5. Ensure that charger is switched off – danger of
short circuit!
6. Connect charger cables.Charger cables must
be connected POSITIVE (+) to POSITIVE (+)
and NEGATIVE (–) to NEGATIVE (–).
7. Switch on charger. Normally, a battery should
be charged at no more than 10 percent of its
rated capacity. Rated capacity of the battery in
your vehicle is listed on the battery housing.
8. After charging, turn off charger and disconnect
charger cables.
9. Tighten the vent caps and reinstall battery.
