Panorama roof system(available as of 01/05 at the earliest)
The Panorama roof system of your Porsche
consists of a total of four roof elements.
Roof element 1 is the draft deflector. This
adjusts itself according to the speed, and helps
protect from the disturbing effects of the wind
when the Panorama roof system is open,
especially at high speeds or from turbulent air
flow.
Bothroof elements 2 and 3 can be moved by
activating the knob in the vehicle's longitudinal
direction. Roof element 3 can also be raised. This
allows the interior to be better ventilated.
Roof element 4 is a fixed glass element and
completes the Panorama roof system.
1-Draft deflector
2- Sliding roof element
3- Sliding/lifting roof element
4- Fixed glass element

B- Light-emitting diode for status identificationGarage Door OpenerThe programmable garage door opener in your
Porsche replaces up to three original hand-held
transmitters used to operate a variety of devices
(e.g. garage door, gate to the property, alarm
system).
You have the option of programming each individ-
ual key in key pad Awith an original hand-held
transmitter frequency.
Warning!
Risk of accident when using the garage door
opener if persons, animals or objects are
within the range of movement of the equip-
ment that is being operated.
fWhen using the garage door opener, ensure
that no persons, animals or objects are within
the range of movement of the equipment that
is being operated.
fObserve the safety notes for the original hand-held transmitter.
To operate the device in question
(e.g. garage door, gate to the property,
alarm system):
fPress the relevant button in keypad A.
Light-emitting diode B lights up during the
signal transfer.Notes on operation
fAlways use the garage door opener in the di-
rection of travel.
Otherwise, range restrictions cannot be ruled
out.
fBefore selling the vehicle, delete the
programed signals in keypad A of the garage
door opener.
fPlease read the instructions for the original
hand-held transmitter to find out whether the
original transmitter is equipped with fixed or

Allocating garage door opener signals to
the keysfPlease follow the operating instructions for the
original hand-held transmitter.
Before programming the keypad the first
time with garage door opener signals
This process deletes the standard codes set at
the factory. Do not repeat the process if you
program further buttons.
fKeep the two outer buttons of keypad A
depressed for approx. 20 seconds until
light-emitting diode B begins to flash.Garage door opener with fixed code system
1. Point the original transmitter at the position
marked.
2. Press the button of the original hand-held
transmitter and at the same time the button to
be allocated on keypad A.
3. Keep both buttons depressed until light-
emitting diode B starts to flash (first slowly and
then quickly).
Only release both buttons when light-emitting
diodeB flashes quickly.
The rapidly flashing light-emitting diode B
confirms that the new frequency signal was
programed successfully.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 to allocate signals for the
garage door opener to other buttons. Garage door opener with changeable code
system
1. Allocate the required button as is done for
systems with fixed codes (points 1 to 4).
2. To synchronise the system:
Press the programming button on the receiver
for the garage door actuator.
Afterwards, you usually have approx.
30 seconds to initiate step 3.
3. Press allocated button in keypad A twice
(in some devices you must press the allocated
button a third time to complete the setting).
4. Repeat the programming steps to allocate
signals for the garage door opener to other
