Tire pressure monitoring system learning
phaseEach time a wheel is changed, the tire pressure
monitoring system must complete the learning
phase again. The tire pressure monitoring system
identifies the wheel positions in this process.
The current tire pressures will not be available on
the multi-purpose display until the learning phase
is complete.
Tire pressure monitoring system learning
process
fSelect tire type and tire size in the menu TYRE
PRESSURE > SETTINGS > TYRES.
The learning process is started. The tire type
and size must be selected even if the settings
for the new set of wheels are the same as for
the old wheels.Note
The spare wheel and collapsible spare wheel do
not contain a wheel transmitter and are not moni-
tored by the tire pressure monitoring system.
The tire pressures for cold tires (68°F/20°C) are
shown in the TYRE PRESSURE menu (filling infor-
mation) during the learning phase.
The required pressure for the spare wheel is al-
ways displayed in the TYRE PRESSURE menu (fill-
ing information).
fCheck the tire pressure for the spare wheel
and collapsible spare wheel manually.
Tire pressure filling informationTire pressure menuThe TYRE PRESSURE menu provides an overview
of the current pressure specifications for the re-
spective wheel (filling information). The pressure
differences with respect to the required pressure
are specified irrespective of the tire temperature.
If the wheels have not been learned, the current
pressures are unavailable.
The spare wheel is not monitored. The required
pressure is specified in brackets.
To make changes to the settings of the tire pres-
sure monitoring system, select SETTINGS in the
TYRE PRESSURE menu.

Warning!
Incomplete entries on the multi-purpose
display affect correct information of
warnings and messages.
fAfter one of the following actions, the settings
must be updated in the TYRE PRESSURE
menu:
– Changing a wheel
– Filling with tire sealant
– Adding air (after previous warning “Flat tyre”)
fPlease observe the chapter “SELECTION AF-TER WARNING” on Page 95.The following settings made in this menu serve as
the basis on which the tire pressure monitoring
system determines the correct pressure.

Note
Before fitting tires approved by Porsche which are
not stored in the multi-purpose display, the
missing information should be supplemented in
the multi-purpose display.
fGo to an authorized Porsche dealer
immediately.Speed limits for tires
Danger!
Risk of accident due to excessive speed.
This could lead to severe personal injury or
death.
fAlways observe the permissible maximum
speed of the respective tire.
fExceeding maximum tire speed could result in
a tire burst, causing lose of control of the ve-
hicle. This could lead to severe personal injury
or death.
Moreover, Porsche recommends obeying all
traffic laws at all times to maintain the safety of yourself and all vehicle occupants.
fPlease observe the chapter “EXAMPLE OF IN-
SCRIPTION” on Page 281.

Tire pressure warnings and
messagesThe tire pressure monitoring system warns about
loss in pressure in two stages, depending on the
amount of pressure loss:
Stage 1 – Tyre pressure too low message
(3 to 6 psi (0.2 to 0.4 bar) loss in pressure)
Stage 2 – Flat tire warning
(loss in pressure as of 6 psi (0.4 bar))
Warning!
Risk of accident. Tire damage may impair
road safety.
fStop the vehicle at a suitable location if there
is a tire pressure warning or tire pressure mes-
sage. Check the tires for signs of damage and fill or change them if necessary.
Example: If the tire pressure display shows
“– 3 psi”, you must increase the tire pressure by
3psi.
Tires can lose air over time without a tire defect
being present. The tire pressure monitoring sys-
tem will then issue a corresponding message or
warning.
fCorrect the tire pressure.
Message indicating tire pressure lossThis message indicates a pressure loss of be-
tween 3 and 6 psi (0.2 and 0.4 bar) if the wheel
positions have not been identified.
This message appears when the vehicle is station-
ary and the ignition is switched on again.
fThe message is displayed for 10 seconds or
fPress RESET switch.
Note on operation
fCorrect the tire pressure at the next opportuni-
ty. When correcting the tire pressure, add only
the pressure differences shown in the "Ty re
pressure" menu.
Message indicating tire pressure loss for
a wheelThe system has identified the wheel positions. The
deviation from the required pressure is displayed
for the corresponding wheel.
This message indicates a pressure loss of be-
tween 3 and 6 psi (0.2 and 0.4 bar).
This message appears when the vehicle is station-
ary and the ignition is switched on again.
fThe message is displayed for 10 seconds or
fPress RESET switch.
