Setting temperaturefPress button F upwards or downwards
respectively.
To suit personal comfort, the interior temperature
can be adjusted between 61 °F and 85 °F/16 °C
and 29.5 °C.

If “LO” or “HI” appears on the display, the system
is operating at maximum cooling or heating pow-
er.
Automatic control is no longer active.
Note
If the preselected temperature is changed, the
blower speed can increase automatically in auto-
matic mode.
The desired temperature is reached more quickly
this way.

General instructions for air-conditioning
compressor– Can switch off briefly if engine is under an ex-
treme load to ensure sufficient engine cooling.
– Switches off automatically at temperatures be- low approx. 37 °F/3 °C and cannot be
switched on, even manually.
– Operates most effectively with windows closed.
If the car has been in th e sun for a long time, it
is a good idea to ventilate the interior briefly
with the windows open.
– Depending on the outside temperature and hu- midity, condensation can drip from the evapo-
rator and form a pool under the vehicle.
This is normal and not a sign of leakage.
– If uncooled air flows out when the lowest temperature has been set, switch off the air-
conditioning compressor and have the fault
repaired at an authorized Porsche dealer.
