Child seats.*
A Boxster should be enjoyed by passen-
gers of all ages. ISOFIX child seat pre-
paration is available as an option and

* Child seats are not compatible with Sports bucket

Sports bucket seats.*
Sports bucket seats are available as
an option and feature a folding backrest,
integrated thorax airbag and manual fore/
aft adjustment. The carbon surface finish
conceals a seat shell in glass-/carbon-
fibre reinforced plastic.
Seat heating and ventilation.
Seat heating is available as an option for
all seats.** Seats are heated in the squab,
backrest and side bolsters. In conjunction
with seat heating, we can equip the seats
(excluding Sports bucket seats) with seat
ventilation on request. A 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.
Fully electric Sports seats.
If you don’t want to sacrifice sportiness for
comfort, the optional fully electric Sports
seats offer fully electric adjustment of
seat height, backrest angle, squab angle
and squab depth. Also elec trically operat-
ed are the fore/aft adjustment, four-way
lumbar support and even the steering col-
umn. The included memory package sup-
ports a range of set tings,
including both
exterior mirrors and all driv
er’s seat and
steering wheel positions.
Adaptive Sports seats Plus.
For a stronger connection bet ween sport
and comfort, adaptive Sports seats Plus
are available on request. These are an
enhanced version of the distinctive Sports
seats Plus with the added functionalit y of
fully electric adjustment of both the seat
and the side bolsters on the squab and
backrest.
Sports seats.
The standard Sports seats are comfor-
table and provide support even when the
car is driven hard into corners. The seat
centres are finished in Alcantara. Electric
backrest adjustment and manual height
and fore/af t adjustment are integrated as
st a n d a rd .
Sports seats Plus.
The optional Sports seats Plus are uphol-
stered in smooth -finish leather. The side
bolsters of the seat squab and backrest
are more prominently defined and have
a firmer, more sport y padding for even
bet ter lateral support. To help you find
the optimum posture, the seats feature
electric backrest adjustment and manual
height and fore/aft adjustment.

Audio and communication
The navigation module of PCM with high-
speed hard drive allows you to choose
bet ween a 2D display and a 3D perspec -
tive. In some regions, even buildings can
be displayed in 3D as well as terrain with
satellite image overlay.
Split screen mode enables you to view
two functions at once, such as the current
navigation map and a list of symbols that
represent the next navigation instruction.
The navigation module also features
dynamic route guidance, which recal -
culates the route in response to official
traffic messages (TMC) and information
from traffic flow sensors (TMC Pro*).
* TMC Pro available in Germany, Austria and
Switzerland.
1, 3 Porsche Communication Management (PCM)
including navigation module

Fit ted in the glove compartment as stand -
ard, the universal audio interface (USB)
enables you to connect and even charge
your iPod
® or any other compa tible audio
source of your choice. The iPod
® or a
USB stick can be operated conveniently
and safely via PCM, the optional multi -
function steering wheel or the optional
voice control system.

you can transfer up to 5,000 tracks in
MP3 format to the 40 GB internal hard
drive of PCM and create your own juke -
box. Playback of recognised podcast and
audiobook formats is supported and
cover art is displayed.
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM) including navigation module.
PCM is your central information and
communication system. It is powerful
and multifunctional, yet easy to operate.
The focal point is the intuitive 7-inch
high-resolution touchscreen. Almost all
functions can be controlled with just your
fingertips, although conventional rotary
pushbut ton controls are still provided.
Radio functions include up to 42 memory
presets, dynamic autostore and the
FM dual tuner with RDS diversit y, which
continuously scans in the background for
the best signal. The CD/ DVD drive plays
CDs and audio DVDs and is MP3-compati -
ble. A six- disc CD/ DVD autochanger inte -
grated into PCM is available as an option.
CDR Plus audio system.
Optional CDR Plus has seven loudspeakers
and delivers a total output of 185 wat ts.
Functions are controlled using a high-res -
olution 7-inch touchscreen. An analogue
and digital t win tuner ensures an exten -
sive selection of radio broadcasts. Other
features include a CD/ DVD drive support -
ing audio playback of MP3 files and
audio/video DVDs, a USB port for various
iPod
® and iPhone® models, an MP3 play-
er or for USB memory sticks containing
MP3 tracks. Cover art is also supported.
Connected USB devices can be controlled
via CDR Plus or the optional multifunction
steering wheel. An AUX inter face enables
you to connect additional external audio
sources, in which case functions are con -
trolled directly from the external device.
CDR audio system.
The CDR audio system is an ideal com -
plement to the resonant engine sound
of the Boxster models. It features a 7-inch
colour touchscreen, giving you quick
and easy access to the most important
functions and menus.
The integrated CD radio features
an FM dual tuner and RDS diversit y,
30 memor y presets, dynamic autostore
and speed -sensitive volume control.
The system also includes a sound system
with four loudspeakers and a total output
of 2 x 25 wat ts. As standard, the glove
compartment contains an AUX interface,
which enables you to connect an external
audio device such as a compatible MP3
p l a y e r.

Voice control system.
To get what you want, you like to get
straight to the point. Almost all of the
functions of PCM can be controlled using
the optional voice control system with

using the soft ware supplied. The soft
-
ware fulfils all statutory requirements
for automatic logbooks as specified by
the German revenue authorities.TV tuner.*
The optional T V tuner for PCM is capable
of receiving unencrypted analogue and
digital television broadcasts (DVB -T) to
Electronic logbook.
An electronic logbook is available for
PCM as an option. It enables automatic
logging for every journey of mileage,
route distance, date, time, starting
location and destination. After you have
downloaded your logbooks from the PCM
via the USB or Bluetooth
® inter face, you
can evaluate the data on your home PC
Telephone module.*
The optional quadband GSM telephone
module offers convenience and excellent
reception. By inserting a SIM card directly
into the integral SIM card reader of CDR
Plus or PCM, calls can be made using the
hands-free facilit y. For even more conven -
ience, the Bluetooth
® capability of a
mobile phone can be used to make calls
via the SIM Access Profile (SAP). Once
automatic pairing is complete, the mobile phone’s aerial is switched off to conserve
battery charge and the phone operates
via the car aerial. Depending on the
mobile phone model, this gives access
not only to the numbers on the SIM card,
but also to the phone’s internal memory.
Depending on the phone, it can also be
controlled using CDR Plus or PCM, the
optional multifunction steering wheel or
the optional voice control system, without

it ever leaving your pocket. In addition, the telephone module enables
you to establish a Bluetooth
® link with
those mobile phones that only support
the Handsfree Profile (HFP). In this case,
the GSM connection is always estab -
lished through the aerial of the mobile
phone. CDR Plus or PCM acts as a hands-
free system and you can leave the mobile
phone tucked away. On request, a tele -
phone module with cordless handset is
also available for PCM. Stored in the centre console, it features a
display and keypad. However, the hand
-
set cannot be used for Bluetooth
® links
established using the Handsfree Profile
(HFP).
