Changing Air Cleaner
Regular replacement of the filter element is part of servicing.fIn dusty conditions, clean the filter element more frequently and replace it if necessary.fPlease see the chapter “MEASUREMENTS ON TEST STANDS” on page 241.
Changing Particle Filters
Regular replacement of the filters is part of servicing.
Dirty filters can be the cause of reduced air throughput, e.g. the windows can mist up.fHave the filters replaced.Please contact an authorized Porsche dealer.
Information
The particle filters ensure that the fresh air entering the passenger compartment is virtually free of dust and pollen.fIf the outside air is polluted by exhaust fumes, press the recirculated-air button.
Tires and Wheels
The original equipment tires and wheel rims on your Porsche comply with all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Information
The summer tires of your Sports Car have been specially developed and adapted for high performance.The tire characteristics change at low outside temperatures (below 15 °C).This can result in noises when parking or maneuvering at low outside temperatures.
For your safety remember the following:
– Wheel rims and wheel bolts are matched to fit your Porsche.– If you intend to use other than original equipment wheels, be sure that they conform to Porsche specifications for your model. Only tires with the same make and with the same specification code (e.g. “N0”, “N1”...) can be mounted.– The use of wheel rims and wheel bolts that do not meet specifications of the original factory installed equipment will affect the safe operation of your vehicle and affect warranty coverage.– Before you plan on exchanging wheels, or snow tires already mounted on the wheel rims, consult your authorized Porsche dealer. Your dealer has the technical information necessary to advise you which wheel rims and wheel bolts are compatible with the original factory installations.
