Danger!
Risk of poisoning. Exhaust gas contains
colorless and odorless carbon monoxide
(CO), which is toxic even in low concentra-
tion. Carbon monoxide can cause uncon-
sciousness and even death if inhaled.
fNever start or let the engine run in an en-
closed, unventilated area. It is not recommend-
ed to sit in your car for prolonged periods with
the engine on and the car not moving.
An unattended vehicle with a running engine
is potentially hazardous. If warning lights
should come on to indicate improper opera-
tion, they would go unnoticed.
fNever leave the engine idling unattended.
Danger of fire.
fDo not drive or park your car where combusti-
ble materials, such as dry grass or leaves,
can come into contact with the hot exhaust sy-
stem.
fIf your car catches on fire for any reason, call
the fire department. Do not endanger your life by attempting to put out the fire.
StartingfOperate footbrake.
fMove selector lever to position P or N.
fDo not press the accelerator pedal.
The engine control module will provide the
correct starting mixture.
fTurn ignition key to ignition lock position 2.
fDo not operate the starter longer than approx.
10 seconds.
If necessary, repeat the starting procedure af-
ter a pause of approx. 10 seconds. Turn the ig-
nition key back to ignition lock position 3first.
The first operation of the starter is ended
automatically when the engine starts.
If the engine does not start, subsequent starter
operations will not be ended automatically.
fDo not warm up the engine when stationary.
Drive off immediately.
Avoid high revolutions and full throttle until the
engine has reached operating temperature.
fIf battery output is insufficient, jump leads can
be used to start the engine.
Please observe the chapter “EMERGENCY
STARTING WITH JUMPER CABLES” on
Page 323.Note on operation
To ensure a good charge condition for the battery
and thus its ability to start the engine, all electrical
accessories which are not required should be
switched off when the ignition is switched on and
when engine revolutions are low (in stop and go
traffic).
Starting with auxiliary batteryIf your vehicle is fitted with an additional battery
in the luggage compartment, you have the possi-
bility of starting the engine with the ignition key,
even if the main battery fails.
In vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive:
1. Remove the Porsche Entry & Drive control unit
from the ignition lock.
Please observe the chapter “REMOVING THE
CONTROL UNIT FROM THE IGNITION LOCK” on
Page 58.
2. Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock and
start the engine as described.
fPlease have the cause of the fault remedied at
an authorized Porsche dealer.
