Porsche Communication 
Management (PCM) with 
navigation module.
PCM is the central control system 
for all information and commu-
nication functions. It is powerful 
and versatile, yet easy to use.
Key features include a 7-inch high-
resolution touchscreen display. 
As before, you can also operate 
PCM using the rotary push -but ton 
control. The menu layout is ex-
tremely clear, with no more than 
five entries per page enabling 
fast and accurate operation. A 
help function is displayed at the 
bot tom of the screen for further 
guidance in specific situations.
Radio functions comprise 
42  presets, an FM t win -tuner 
with RDS frequency diversit y, which continuously searches the 
airwaves for the best possible 
signal from the selected radio 
station, and dynamic autostore.
The CD/ DVD drive plays CDs 
and audio DVDs and is MP3-
compatible. Audio playback of 
video DVDs is also supported.
 
An optional integrated six- disc 
CD/ DVD autochanger is available 
for PCM.  A navigation module with high-
speed hard drive is included 
with PCM. The map display of fers 
a conventional 2D layout as well 
as a perspective view. In some 
regions, even topography with 
superimposed satellite map and 
buildings can be displayed in 3D. 
In split-screen mode, you can view 
the current map section together 
with a list of icons for the next 
manoeuvre.

        Adaptive cruise control.
Optional on all Cayenne models, 
adaptive cruise control regulates 
the speed of your vehicle in line 
with that of the vehicle in front. To 
do that, the system uses a radar 
sensor in the central air intake 
to monitor the road up to 200 m 
ahead. If you approach another vehicle 
that is travelling slower than 
your selected cruising speed,
 
the system slows the engine or 
gently applies the brakes. This 
continues until the  distance that 
you have preset is maintained. 
If heavier braking is required, the 
driver has to actively intervene.  Your vehicle will now follow the 
one in front at a  reduced speed. 
If the other vehicle decelerates 
further, adaptive cruise control 
will continue to reduce your speed 
– even down to a halt. When the 
road ahead is free once more, 
the car automatically returns 
to your selected cruising speed  bet ween 30 and 210 km/ h 
(19 and 130 mph). To pull away 
after an automatic stop, simply 
use the control lever or depress 
the accelerator pedal.
For added safet y, the system also 
readies the brakes whenever a 
decreasing distance to the vehicle 
in front is detected. Adaptive 
cruise control and PSM (p. 66) 
interact to prefill the brakes. 
The system visually and audibly 
alerts the driver in the event 
of a critical  decrease in distance 
and briefly tugs on the brakes.
Optional for all Cayenne 
models.
Lane Change Assist (LCA).
Lane  Change  Assist  (LCA ) 
monitors the area behind the 
 vehicle and the blind spot using 
radar sensors.  At speeds of 30 km/ h (19 mph) or 
more, the system alerts the driver 
of a vehicle in the blind spot or 
approaching quickly from behind 
via a visual signal from the 
 exter ior mirrors. This enhances 
comfort and safet y, particularly 
when driving on the motorway. 
However, LCA does not actively 
intervene in the 
 controlling of 
the vehicle and can be deactivated 
at any time.
Optional for all Cayenne 
models.
