2013 PORSCHE 911 TARGA4 air condition

2726
The interior of a 9 11 doesn’t follow
a particular fashion. It follows clear
principles.
Principles which also apply to the
new 9 11 Targa 4 models. Here, the
predominantly sporty interior design is
successfully combined with a classic

layout and high-quality equipment.
There are no distractions, no gadgets;
every thing is focused on the driver and
on driving. This is the only way of
creating what you could call a sport y
st yle – you could even say it ’s the
very art of sports car design.
These principles are expressed in
practice by the ascending centre
console. Its sophisticated ergonomic
design utilises a clear operating logic
for its controls, such as those for the
individually adjustable two-zone air
conditioning system or for operating
the roof.
Sporty. Classic. Elegant.
It’s wonderful when all styles unite in harmony.

Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB).
The optional Porsche Ceramic Composite
Brake (PCCB) has a proven track record
from the world of motorsport. The cross-
drilled ceramic brake discs have a diame -
ter of 350 mm front and rear for even
more formidable braking performance.
The use of six-piston aluminium monobloc
brake calipers on the front axle and
four-piston aluminium monobloc brake
calipers at the rear – all finished in

yellow – ensures extremely high brake
forces which, crucially, are exceptionally
consistent. PCCB enables shorter braking
distances in even the toughest road and
race conditions. The key advantage of PCCB is the
extremely low weight of the ceramic brake
discs, which are approximately 50
%
lighter than standard discs of similar
design and size. As well as enhancing
performance and fuel economy, this

represents a major reduction in unsprung
and rotating masses. The consequence of
this is bet ter road holding and increased
comfort, particularly on uneven roads.
Circuit racing will require extra main -
tenance to be carried out in addition to
the routine maintenance.
Electric parking brake.
The electric parking brake, which you
can activate and deactivate manually,
releases automatically as you pull away. With the hill-hold function, you can pull
away without ever rolling back. The

system automatically detects when the
vehicle has come to a halt on an uphill
gradient requiring intervention. PSM then
maintains the brake pressure at all four
wheels to prevent the vehicle from
moving in the opposite direction.
Airbags.
The new 911 Targa 4 models offer
advanced airbag technology in the form
of full-size driver and front passenger
airbags, which are inflated in t wo stages,
depending on the severit y and t ype of
accident (e. g. frontal or offset frontal). In
less serious accidents, the airbags are
only partially inflated, thereby minimising
discomfort to the occupants.
Porsche Side Impact Protection System
(POSIP).
The new 9 11 Targa 4 models are equipped
as standard with the Porsche Side Impact
Protection System (POSIP). It comprises
side impact protection elements in the
doors and t wo airbags on each side. An
integral thorax airbag is located in each

seat side bolster, while the door panels
each contain an upwards-inflating head
airbag. Each thorax airbag has a volume
of 10 litres and each head airbag 15 litres,
ensuring excellent protection in the event
of a side impact.
Roll-over protection.
The 911 Targa 4 models have exemplary
torsional rigidit y and flexural strength.
Increased protection is provided by the
steel roll-over protection system located
under the aluminium panel of the Targa
roll bar.

Sports seats.
The Sports seats in partial leather are
comfortable and provide support even
during performance driving. They are
equipped as standard with electric seat
height and backrest adjustment and
mechanical fore/aft adjustment.
Sports seats Plus.
Available as an option are Sports seats
Plus in leather with electric seat height
and backrest adjustment as well as
mechanical fore/aft adjustment. The side
bolsters on the squab and backrest
have firmer, sportier padding and offer
even better lateral support. The backrest
shells are finished in Silver Grey.
Fully electric Sports seats.
If you don’t want to sacrifice sportiness
for comfort, the optional fully electric
Sports seats provide electric adjustment
of seat height, backrest angle, squab angle, squab depth, fore/aft position,
four-way lumbar support and even the
steering column.
The integrated memory package supports
both exterior mirrors and all seat posi -
tions on the driver’s side as well as the
set tings for the steering wheel, lights,
wipers, air conditioning, door locks,
PCM, and instrument cluster.
Adaptive Sports seats Plus.
The optional adaptive Sports seats Plus
are the ideal combination of sport and
comfort. Finished in leather and with side
bolsters having a firm, sport y padding,
they also feature shoulder supports for
the best possible hold. Offering 18-way
electric adjustment, the seats can be
optimally adapted to meet your needs in
terms of seat height, squab
and backrest
angle, squab length, fore/aft
adjustment
and four-way lumbar support. The

steering column is also electrically
adjustable.
In addition, the side bolsters on the seat
squab and backrest are independently
adjustable for added comfort on long
journeys and precision lateral support on
winding roads. Also included is a memory
function for all seat positions (apart from
the side bolsters) and lumbar support on
the driver’s side as well as the positions
of the steering wheel and exterior mirrors.
The memory function also supports, for
example, set tings for the steering wheel,
lights, wipers, air conditioning, door locks,
PCM, and instrument cluster.
Sports bucket seats.*
Sports bucket seats featuring a folding
backrest, integral thorax airbag and
manual fore/aft adjustment are available
as optional equipment. The seat shells
are made from glass- and carbon-fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) with a carbon
surface finish.
On request, the Sports bucket seats are
also available with the integrated memory
package. The package includes electric
steering column adjustment and a memory
function for both exterior mirror positions
as well as the set tings for the steering
wheel, lights, wipers, air conditioning, door
locks, PCM and instrument cluster.
Seat heating and ventilation.
Seat heating is available as an option for
all seats. Seats are heated in the squab,
the backrest and the side bolsters of the
front seats.
In conjunction with seat heating, we can
equip the seats (except for the Sports
bucket seats) with seat ventilation on
request. A draught-free slipstream effect
is produced by active ventilation of the perforated seat centre and backrest and
by passive aeration at the side bolsters.
This evaporates perspiration moisture
and therefore makes for a dry and pleas
-
ant seating environment, even in hot
weather.
Rear seats.
The rear seats are remarkably comforta -
ble for a sports car. With the backrests
folded down, the luggage compartment
volume in the new 911 Targa 4 models,
with a capacit y of 160 litres, offers plent y
of space for luggage too.

Climate control.
The new 911 Targa 4 models feature
two-zone automatic climate control as
standard with an enhanced ventilation
effect and separate temperature controls
for the driver and front passenger. The
available air conditioning modes are
gentle, normal and strong.
An active carbon filter traps particles,
pollen and odours and an automatic
air recirculation function permanently
monitors air quality, reduces humidity and switches from fresh to recirculated
air when required.
In warmer weather, a solar sensor helps
the climate control to detect strong sun
-
light and automatically compensate for
the comfort of both the driver and front

head console and in the areas of the door
pulls, door storage compartments, front
foot wells and rear seats.
