f Check operation of bulb.
Changing Light-Emitting Diodes
and Long-Life BulbsDaytime driving lights, front side lights, front turn
signal lights, gas-discharge bulbs in Bi-Xenon
headlights, as well as additional brake lights and
interior lights have light-emitting diodes and long-
life bulbs.
The LEDs cannot be replaced individually.
Replacement of the long-life bulbs involves
a greater amount of installation work.
fHave defective LEDs and bulbs replaced in
a qualified specialist workshop.
Please contact a qualified specialist workshop.
We recommend that you have an authorized
Porsche dealer to do this work as they have
trained workshop personnel and the necessary
parts and tools.
Headlight AdjustmentfCheck tire pressure and adjust if necessary.
f Please see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURE FOR
COLD TIRES (68 °F/20 °C)” on page 326.
f Please see the chapter “REPLACING BULBS”
on page 308.

2. Switch on low beam.
3. Open engine compartment lid.
4. Place allen key (6 mm) on adjusting screw.

TowingCertain state statutes and local ordinances
prohibit towing with a chain, rope or even a tow
bar. In addition, damage to your vehicle may result
from improper precedures. Consult your
authorized Porsche dealer for details.
Flat bed towing is the pref
erred type of towing to
be used on Porsche vehicles.
Tips on driving
f Always observe the laws governing towing and
tow-starting.
f Exercise extreme care when your vehicle is
being towed.
– If a turn signal is operated when the ignition and emergency flasher is switched on, only the
turn signal on the corresponding side of the
vehicle lights up. The emergency flasher is
switched back on again when the turn signal is
switched off.
Warning!
Risk of accidents. No power assistance is
available on the towed vehicle when its
engine is not running. Greater force is
therefore required when braking and
steering.
f Exercise extreme care when your vehicle is being towed.
When the engine is not running, adequate
lubrication of the transmission is not guaranteed.
Observe the following points to avoid damage to
the transmission.
Panamera STowing a vehicle with PDK transmission on all
four wheels
Caution!
We urge that wherever possible, a car
transporter or trailer be used to transport a
Panamera vehicle that cannot move under
its own power. This is the safest way to
transport a down vehicle.
For those instances where a car transporter or
trailer is not available, the vehicle may be towed
on all four axles only, provided the following
conditions are strictly me t. Failure to meet these
conditions will result in serious and expensive
damage to the PDK transmission.

damaged, serious damage will result if the vehicle
is not towed with all four wheels off the ground.
Porsche cannot be held responsible for damage
incurred in cases where a vehicle has been transported on one or both of its axles.

The vehicle can be towed as soon as the
selector lever is in position N and selector-
lever position N appears on the display.
