Function of the airbag systemThe front airbags are triggered during a frontal col-
lision of sufficient force and direction.
In the event of a side impact of corresponding
force, the side airbag on the impact side is
triggered.
The inflation process generates the amount of gas
required to fill the airbags at the necessary pres-
sure in fractions of a second.
Airbags help to protect the head and upper body,
while simultaneously damping the motion of the
driver and passenger in the impact direction in the
event of a frontal impact or side impact.
Your vehicle is equipped with a crash sensing and
diagnostic module. This module will record the
use of the seat belt restraint system by the driver
and front passenger when the airbags and/or belt
tentioner are triggered.
Precondition for activating the restraint systems:
– Ignition is switched on.-Advanced Airbag
Your vehicle is equipped with weight sensing for
the passenger's seat in accordance with U.S. Fed-
eral/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
208.
Depending on the weight acting on the passen-
ger's seat, the passenger's airbag will automati-
cally be switched on and off.
Depending on the angle and force of impact, the
passenger's airbag which is switched-on will be
triggered during a collision.
Precondition for switching the passenger's airbag
on and off, depending on weight:
– Ignition is switched on.Seat adjustment for the passenger's seat
If the seat is in an extreme position (e.g., the back-
rest is in contact with the rear seat bench), the
backrest can warp. Warping of the backrest can
lead to malfunctions.
fCorrect the seat adjustment.
The seat is not jammed and is self-supporting.
The backrest is in the upright position.
fDo not transport a load and objects in the rear
footwell or under the passenger's seat.
If the load or objects are under the seat, they
can cause malfunctions.
If the weight on the passenger's seat is reduced
significantly, e.g., by supporting weight on the
armrest, the passenger's airbag can be switched
off.
fSelect an upright seat position, and do not sup-
port weight on the armrests or lean out of the
window.
Always keep feet in the footwell while driving.
Do not put feet on the dashboard or the seat
area. Do not lean against the inside of the door
or outside the window while the vehicle is mov-
ing.
If the passenger's seat is warped significantly, a
message is displayed in the multi-purpose display
in the instrument panel:
fCorrect the seat adjustment.
fPlease observe the chapter “WARNING LIGHTS
AND WARNING MESSAGES” on Page 122.

Tire PressurefPlease observe the chapter “TIRES/WHEELS”
on Page 285.
The tire pressure monitoring continuously
monitors tire pressure and tire temperature on all
four wheels and warns the driver when the tire
pressure is too low.
The display as well as the settings for tire
pressure monitoring are done on the multi-
purpose display in the TIRE PRESSURE menu.
However the tire pressure must be set manually
on the wheel.
The tire pressures to be monitored for tire type
are permanently set in the tire pressure
monitoring and cannot be changed.
The driver is solely responsible for filling the tires
correctly and for selecting in the multi-purpose dis-
play.
Danger!
Risk of serious personal injury or death.
Driving the vehicle with low tire pressure in-
creases increases risk of a tire failure and re-
sulting loss of control. Furthermore, low tire
pressure increases rate of wear of the affect-
ed tires.
Despite the advantages offered by the tire
pressure monitoring, it is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s
responsibility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not reached
the level to trigger illumination of the tire
pressure monitoring low tire pressure mes-
sage.
fWhen a flat tire has been displayed, immediate-
ly stop in a suitable place and check the tires
for damage. If necessary remedy the damages
with tire sealant.
fDo not by any means continue to drive with
leaking tires.
fDefective tires must be immediately replaced
by a specialist repair shop.
Tire repairs are not permissible under any
circumstances.
fSealing the tire with the tire sealant is only an
emergency repair, so you can drive to the next
repair shop. The maximum permitted speed is
50 mph (80 km/h).fDo not drive with tires whose tire pressure
drops again in a short period of time. In cases
of doubt, have tires checked by a specialist re-
pair shop.
fIf the tire pressure monitoring is defective
(e.g., defective wheel transmitter), contact a
specialist workshop immediately and have the
damages repaired.
The tire pressure will not be monitored by a de-
fective tire pressure monitoring.
fTires lose air over time without a tire defect be-
ing present. A tire pressure warning will then
appear in the multi-purpose display. Correct
the tire pressure at the next opportunity.
fThe tire pressure monitoring gives a warning
about tire damages due to insufficient tire
pressure as well as about a gradual loss of
pressure due to foreign objects.
The tire pressure monitoring cannot warn you
about tire damages occurring suddenly (e.g.,
flat tire due to sudden external effects).
fBefore fitting tires approved by Porsche which
are not stored in the on-board computer, the
missing information should be supplemented
in the on-board computer.

Tire pressure monitoring learning phaseEach time a wheel is changed, the tire pressure
monitoring must complete the learning phase
again. The tire pressure monitoring 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 learning process
fSelect tire type and tire size in the menu TIRE
PRESSURE > SETTINGS > TIRES.
The learning process is started. The tire type
and size must be selected e ve n if the se ttings
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.
The tire pressures for cold tires (68°F/20°C) are
shown in the TIRE PRESSURE menu (filling informa-
tion) during the learning phase.
The required pressure for the spare wheel is al-
ways displayed in the TIRE PRESSURE menu (filling
information).
fCheck the tire pressure for the spare wheel
and collapsible spare wheel manually.
Tire pressure filling informationTire pressure menuThe TIRE 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, select SETTINGS in the TIRE
PRESSURE menu.

Danger!
Risk of accident due to excessive speed.
This could lead to severe personal injury or
death.

speed of the respective tire.
fExceeding maximum tire speed could result in
a tire burst, causing lose of control of the vehi-
cle. 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.
The speed code letter indicates the maximum per-
missible speed for the tire.
