Driving and Driving Safety
Compact disc player
Caution!
To avoid damage to compact disc player and
discs.
f Use only compact discs labeled as shown,
having no dirt, damage or warpage.
f Never attempt to disassemble or oil any part
of the player unit. Do not insert any object
other than a disc into the slot.Remember there
are no user-serviceable parts inside the
compact disc player.
f Do not allow the disc to sustain any
fingerprints, scrapes or stickers on the
surfaces. This may cause poor sound quality.
Hold the disc only on the edge or center hole.
f When not in use, take the disc out of the player,
put the disc back into its case and store it
away from dust, heat, damp and direct
sunlight.
Leaving the disc on the dashboard in the sun
can damage the disc. f
If the disc gets dirty, clean the disc by wiping
the surfaces from the center to the outside in
a radial direction with a soft cloth.
Do not use a conventional record cleaner or
anti-static record preservative.
Disc cleaners are available in audio stores.
Car Telephone and Aftermarket Alarms Important legal and safety information
regarding the use of cellular telephones
Some states may prohibit the use of cellular
telephones while driving a vehicle. Check the laws
and regulations on the use of cellular telephones
in the areas where you drive.
Danger!
Risk of an accident.
Severe personal injury or death can result in
the event of an accident.
Looking away from the road or turning your
attention away from your driving can cause
an accident and lead to serious personal
injury or death.
When using your cellular telephone, you should
always:
f Give full attention to your driving – pull off the
road and park before making or answering a
call if traffic conditions so require, and f
Keep both hands on the steering wheel – use
hands-free operation (if available) – pull off the
road and park before using a hand-held
telephone.
It is essential to observe the telephone
manufacturer’s instructions before operating
the telephone.
Any portable telephone or radio transmitter which
is used in a Porsche must be properly installed in
accordance with the technical requirements of
Porsche.
The transmission power must not exceed
10 W.
The devices must possess a type approval for
your vehicle and have an “e” symbol.
If you should require equipment with transmission
power values greater than 10 W, please consult
your authorized Porsche dealer for this purpose.
They are familiar with the technical requirements
for installing devices of this kind.
The antennas for all radios and telephones with a
transmitting antenna must be externally mounted.
The improper installation of radios or telephones
or use of a radio or tele phone with a transmitting
antenna inside the car may cause the warning
lights to come on.
Improper installation of such equipment can
create a discharged battery or excessive current
draw from added equipment.
Driving and Driving Safety
191
If aftermarket systems are installed by non-
dealership technicians or outside the selling
dealer, problems may result. Installation of
aftermarket equipment is not covered under the
New Car Warranty.
fConsult your authorized Porsche dealer about
the installation of non-Porsche approved
equipment.
Reception quality
The reception quality of your car telephone will
change constantly when you are driving.
Interference caused by buildings, landscape and
weather is unavoidable. It may become particu-
larly difficult to hear when using the hands-free
function due to external noise such as engine and
wind noise.
Automatic car-wash
f Unscrew external antennas before using an
automatic car-wash.
Porsche Communication
Management (PCM)
Warning!
There is danger of accident if you set or
operate the on-board computer, radio,
navigation system, telephone or other
equipment when driving.
This could distract you from traffic and
cause you to lose control of the vehicle
resulting in serious personal injury or death.
f Operate the components while driving only if
the traffic situation allows you to do so safely.
f Carry out any complicated operating or setting
procedures only with the vehicle stationary.
f If it is necessary to operate these components
while the vehicle is in motion, use the function keys on the multi-functional steering wheel.
f Refer to the separate operating instructions
before putting the PCM into operation.
When put into operation for the first time, a
distance of approx. 3 miles (5 km) must be driven
in order for the navigation system to complete the
process of fine calibration. The same applies
when the tires are changed (e.g. summer/winter
tires) or new tires fitted. Full location accuracy is
not yet achieved during the fine-calibration
process. If the vehicle has been tr
ansported (e.g. ferry, car
train), the system may ta ke a few minutes after
being switched on before it determines the current
location.
Serious tire slip (e.g. spinning wheels on snow)
may result in temporarily inaccurate navigation.
When the battery has been disconnected, it may
take up to 15 minutes before the navigation
system is operational once more.
Satellite radioYou must have the satellit e radio activated before
you can put it into operation. You will need a
contract with a provider in order to use this radio.
f Refer to the separate radio operating
instructions before putting into operation.
