Control, discipline, precision.
At Porsche, we take driving pleasure very seriously.
S a f e t y.
Brakes.
Another crucial piece of the Porsche
identit y is the brakes. We value them as
highly as we do our engines and chassis.
They set standards for deceleration and
stabilit y, and give the driver the reassur
-
ance needed to push the car to the limits
of its performance.
The 911 Carrera base models are fit ted
front and rear with anodised black four-
piston aluminium monobloc fixed
calipers. All brake discs have a diameter
of 330 mm. On the S models, we have fit ted larger
brakes and more brake pistons to cope
with the higher engine power of these
models. Consequently, they feature red
six-piston monobloc aluminium fixed
brake calipers at the front and four-piston
aluminium monobloc fixed calipers at
the rear. The brake disc diameter is
340 mm at the front and 330 mm at the
rear. The results are enhanced braking
performance and stability.
On all models, the brake calipers have
an enclosed monobloc construction.
This makes them tougher but lighter
and enables a more rapid response and release of the brake even under extreme
loads. The pedal travel is short and
the biting point precise. The brake discs
are cross-drilled for better performance
in the wet.
Other benefits of the standard braking
system include the anti-lock braking
system (ABS), designed to keep
deceleration constant. Pedal effort is
reduced and braking response improved
by an 8-/9-inch tandem vacuum brake
booster. In the S models, brake disc
cooling is further enhanced by the
inclusion of air spoilers.

From the start, Porsche has been
synonymous with motorsport. Ever since
1948, when we found our identit y on the
racetrack, we have taken the experience
we have gained and transferred it to the
road. The optional Porsche Ceramic
Composite Brake (PCCB) is a fine example.
This brake system has already had to
Composure | Safet y
cope with the harshest requirements of
motor racing and is fit ted in cars that
compete in demanding events, such as
the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup. The
cross-drilled PCCB ceramic brake discs
for the 911 Carrera have a diameter
of 350 mm front and rear for even
more formidable braking performance. What we’ve discovered from over 30,000 racing victories:
Brake later, finish sooner.
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB).The use of six-piston aluminium
monobloc fixed brake calipers on the
front axle and four-piston units 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 is better roadholding
and increased comfort, particularly on
uneven roads, as well as greater agilit y
and improved handling.
The demands of racetrack use mean
that additional maintenance tasks
will be required alongside the routine
maintenance work scheduled as
part of standard maintenance intervals.

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 911 Carrera 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. In addition to the central airbag control
unit on the transmission tunnel, a pair of
impact sensors are located near the
headlights. This allows a crash to be
detected and evaluated not just sooner,
but with even greater accuracy.
Porsche Side Impact Protection
System (POSIP).
Coupé or Cabriolet, the 911 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.
Cabriolet roll-over protection concept.
Despite their low weight, the 911 Carrera
Cabriolet models have exemplary
torsional rigidit y and flexural strength.
Body flexing is minimal even on irregular
road surfaces.
Increased protection is provided by
an automatically deploying roll-over
protection system if the car were to
overturn. Two spring-loaded roll-over
bars are neatly incorporated behind
the rear seats. The roll- over sensor
continuously monitors the car’s pitch
and roll, contact with the road, as
well as lateral and longitudinal forces.
If the car were to overturn, the roll- over
bars would be deployed instantly.

To see something coming, experience helps.
So does forward-looking technology.
Lights.
Composure | Safet y
The 911 Carrera models are equipped as
standard with Bi-Xenon headlights
including a headlight cleaning system
and dynamic range control. The LED
front light units incorporate indicators,
day time running lights and position
lights. Automatic headlight activation is
also included as standard.
Cut ting edge LED technology is also
used for the taillights, the high-level third
brake light, the licence plate illumination,
the rear direction indicators, the rear fog
light and – on all-wheel- drive models –
the rear light strip. LEDs provide bet ter
illumination and respond more quickly
to driver input.
In the event of sudden braking, the adap -
tive LED brake lights begin to pulsate.
If the vehicle is braked to a halt, the
hazard warning lights will switch on
automatically. The lighting system
fea tures an automatic switch-
off and
the ‘Welcome Home’ function.
Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
The Porsche Dynamic Light System
(PDLS) is available as an option. Its
dynamic cornering light function swivels
the headlights towards the inside of a
bend, based on steering angle and road
speed, in order to illuminate more of the
road at tight bends and turns. Put simply,
the road ahead is illuminated the moment
you enter a bend. Speed -sensitive head-
light range control is also part of the
PDLS as is the adverse weather function.
LED main headlights with Porsche
Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS +
).
Superior safet y meets sport y design in
the form of the LED main headlights with
PDLS+ which are available as optional
equipment. Integrated into each headlight
housing are four LED spots for the
day time running lights, and one LED light
ring. In addition to being efficient and
long-lasting, LED technology also creates
a light very similar to daylight and thus
helps to reduce driver fatigue. One special feature of PDLS+ is the
dynamic main beam function. A camera
detects the lights of vehicles ahead
as well as those of oncoming traffic.
Based on the data from the camera, the
dynam
ic main beam function then adapts
the headlight range accordingly. This continu
ous, stepless control means that
you are able to see the course of the
road, pedestrians and potential hazards
earlier without hindering other road
users.

Comfort
Climate control.
The 911 models feature t wo -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. A demister function
keeps the windows clear in cold weather. In warmer weather, a solar sensor helps
the climate control
to detect strong
sunlight and automatically
compensate
for the comfort of both the driver and
front passenger.
HomeLink® (programmable garage
door opener).
As an option, it is possible to have
a programmable garage door opener
integrated into the overhead console.
At the push of a but ton, it controls up
to three different garage doors, lighting
systems or alarm systems.
Many things have practical qualities.
Even more have a sporty function.
And some are just extremely convenient.
Additional comfort and convenience features.
Cruise control.
This automatic speed control function is
available as an option. For greater driver
comfort on long stretches of road, cruise
control operates in the 30 –240 km/ h
speed range and is activated using a but -
ton on the steering column control stalk.
Light design package.
The optional light design package is both
practical and aesthetically appealing.
It comprises dimmable LEDs in the over -
head console and in the areas of the
door pulls, door storage compartments,
front foot wells and rear seats.
‘Welcome Home’ lighting.
For convenience, particularly at night,
the ‘Welcome Home’ lighting function
automatically switches on the LED day -
time running lights for a defined period
whenever the vehicle is opened or
closed using the key remote.
A customisable delayed switch- off timer
keeps the day time running lights, the
taillights and, where applicable, the
courtesy lights switched on until you
reach your front door.
Adaptive cruise control with Porsche
Active Safe (PAS).
Available as an option, this cruise control
function regulates your speed according
to the distance bet ween your vehicle and
the vehicle in front. A radar sensor moni -
tors the road ahead up to a distance of
200 m. If you have set a cruising speed
but have begun to gain on the vehicle in front because it is driving more slowly,
this is detected by the radar sensor.
The system now reduces the speed
of your vehicle at a maximum rate of
3.5 m/sec
2 by restricting the throt tle
or by applying the brakes appropriate
to the prevailing situation until the dis -
tance that you have preset is maintained.
Your vehicle will now continue at a reduced speed. If the other vehicle
decelerates further, adaptive cruise
control will continue to reduce your
cruising speed – even down to a halt. For additional safet y, if the system detects
that the distance from the vehicle in front
is decreasing, it will also prepare your
vehicle for braking by precharging the
braking system so that the brake pads are already in light contact with the
brake discs. However, drivers still have
to perform heavier braking themselves.
As soon as the road ahead clears again,
your vehicle will accelerate back up to
the cruising speed originally set.
If your vehicle approaches the vehicle
in front too quickly, Porsche Active Safe
(PAS) will issue audible and visual warn
-
ings. In addition, the system briefly jerks
the brakes and if necessary initiates
target braking, with any braking pressure
applied by the driver being increased
within certain system limits.
