Filling in tire sealant
The tire sealant can be found in the right-hand box in the luggage compartment. The compressor is located under the cover in the luggage compartment.
The tire sealant can be used to seal small cuts, especially in the tire tread.
Sealing the tire with the tire sealant is only an emergency solution so you can drive to the nearest workshop. Even if the tire is air-tight, it may only be used for short journeys in an emergency.
The tire sealant set comprises: – a filler bottle– a filler hose– a valve turner– a spare valve insert– a sticker with the maximum permitted speed– a compressor– operating instructions
Always observe the following points:fUse the tire sealant only in the case of cuts or punctures no larger than 0.15 in. (4 mm).fNever use the tire sealant if the rim is damaged.
The sealant is highly flammable and harmful to health.fFire, naked flame and smoking are prohibited when handling tire sealant.fAvoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing due to caustic chemical properties of the tire sealant.fKeep tire sealant away from children.fDo not inhale vapors, due to the consequent harm to personal health resulting in serious personal injury or death.
In the event of contact with sealant:
fIf sealant gets on your skin or into your eyes, thoroughly rinse the affected part of your body immediately with plenty of water.fChange soiled clothing immediately.fSee a doctor immediately in the event of an allergic reaction.fIf sealant is swallowed, thoroughly rinse out the mouth without delay and drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting.See a doctor immediately.

Towing
Certain state statutes and local ordinances prohibit towing with a chain, rope or even a tow bar. In addition, damage to your vehicle may result from improper procedures. Consult your authorized Porsche dealer for details.
Flatbed towing is the preferred type of towing to be used on Porsche vehicles.
Information
fAlways observe the laws governing towing and tow-starting.fExercise extreme care when your vehicle is being towed.
No power assistance is available on the towed vehicle when its engine is not running. Greater force is therefore required when braking and steering.fExercise extreme care when your vehicle is being towed.
When the engine is not running, adequate lubrication of the transmission is not guaranteed. Observe the following points to avoid damage to the transmission.
Towing a vehicle on all four wheels
We urge that wherever possible, a car transporter or trailer be used to transport a 911 Turbo vehicle that cannot move under its own power. This is the safest way to transport a down vehicle.
For those instances where a car transporter or trailer is not available, the vehicle may be towed on all four wheels only, provided the following
conditions are strictly met. Failure to meet these conditions will result in serious and expensive damage to the PDK transmission.
If the vehicle's transmission or shifter is already damaged, serious damage will result if the vehicle is not towed with all four wheels off the ground.
Porsche cannot be held responsible for damage incurred in cases where a vehicle has been transported on one or both of its axles.
Towing a vehicle on all four wheels:
fThe vehicle must not be towed if the PDK transmission is in emergency operation mode (“ Transm. failure Park vehicle safely”). The vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.fIf a selector lever emergency release was performed, the vehicle must not be towed. The vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.fMove PDK selector lever to position N. To properly engage selector-lever position N on the display and at the selector lever, the engine must be started once before towing the vehicle. The vehicle can be towed as soon as the selector lever is in position N and selector- lever position N appears on the display.fThe vehicle must always roll on all four wheels when towed.The ignition must be switched on so that the brake lights and turn signal lights operate.fDo not exceed a maximum speed of 30 mph (50 km/h).Maximum towing distance 30 miles (50 km).If towing distances are greater, the vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.

286 Tire Pressure and Technical Data
Wheels, Tires
fApproval of tire and wheel sizes is granted based on extensive testing. By fitting tires that have been approved by Porsche, you can be sure that you have the best possible tires for your Porsche.The load capacity coefficient (e.g. “91”) and maximum speed code letter (e.g. “Y”) for permitted top speed are minimum requirements. When fitting new tires or changing tires: Please see the chapter “TIRES AND WHEELS” on page 244.fSnow chain clearance can only be guaranteed with the tires marked 1). Snow chains can only be fitted on the rear wheels. Observe state or province-specific laws regarding maximum speeds with fitted snow chains. Only use Porsche approved fine-link cross-type or edge chains.fYour Porsche dealer will be pleased to advise you about the current approval status for tires, wheels and snow chains.
