148 Driving and Driving Safety
An unattended vehicle with a running engine is potentially hazardous. If warning lights come on to indicate improper operation, no one would be present to observe the light and turn off the engine.fNever leave the engine idling unattended.
Starting the vehicle
fOperate the footbrake.fMove PDK selector lever to the P or N position.fDo not press the accelerator pedal.The engine control unit will provide the correct starting mixture.fTurn the ignition key or control unit (Porsche Entry & Drive) to ignition lock position 2. The starting process is carried out and completed automatically as soon as ignition lock position 2 (start engine) is reached. The ignition key or control unit is reset automatically to ignition lock position 1 (ignition on).fDo not operate the starter for more than approx. 10 seconds. If necessary, repeat the starting procedure after a pause of approx. 10 seconds. Turn the ignition key back to ignition lock position 0 (initial position) first. The first operation of the starter is ended automatically when the engine starts.If the engine does not start, subsequent starter operations will not be ended automatically.fDo not warm up the engine when stationary. Drive off immediately. Avoid high revs and full throttle until the engine has reached operating temperature.
fIf the vehicle battery power is too weak, the engine can be started with jump leads.
For information on jump-lead starting: fPlease see the chapter “EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY, EMERGENCY STARTING WITH JUMPER CABLES” on page 273.
Information
To ensure a good battery charge condition, thereby ensuring that the battery will start the engine, all electrical loads that are not required should be switched off when the ignition is switched on and when engine revs are low (in traffic jams, in city traffic or in lines).
Stopping
fOnly remove the ignition key when the vehicle is stationary.fOnly switch the ignition off when the vehicle is stationary, as there is no power steering and brake booster assistance when the engine is switched off.fWhen leaving the vehicle, always remove the ignition key, apply the electric parking brake and engage selector-lever position P. The control unit always remains in the ignition lock on vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive.
Engine components become very hot when the engine is running.fBefore working on any part in the engine compartment, turn the engine off and let it cool down sufficiently.
The exhaust pipe is hot when the engine is running and remains hot for some time after the vehicle is turned off. fTo prevent injury, make a point of noting where your vehicle’s exhaust pipe is, avoid placing your legs near the exhaust pipe when loading and unloading cargo in the rear, and closely supervise children around the vehicle during time when the exhaust pipe could be hot. A hot exhaust pipe can cause painful skin burns.
Radiator fan
The fan can start running depending on the temperature, even with the engine switched off.fExercise extreme care that parts of the body, articles of clothing or jewelry do not get caught in the radiator fan. fExercise extreme caution when working in the area of the radiator fans.
For information on radiator fans:fPlease see the chapter “RADIATOR FAN, ENGINE COMPARTMENT BLOWERS” on page 221.

Information
The distance depends on the driving speed. The slower the vehicle is traveling, the shorter the distance and the faster the vehicle is traveling, the longer the distance.
Increasing the desired distance
fPress the rocker switch Z upwards. The desired distance is increased.More orange segments are shown in the desired distance display A.
Reducing the desired distance
fPress the rocker switch Z downwards. The desired distance is reduced.Fewer orange segments are shown in the desired distance display A.
Display showing distance from vehicle in front
If a vehicle is detected in front, the vehicle symbol C appears on the multi-function display and in the status display B. The grey area D shows the current distance from the vehicle in front.
Possible distance settingsAutomatic braking to a standstill
If the vehicle in front stops, your vehicle will slow down and come to a stop within the control limits of the system if adaptive cruise control is active.The indicator light lights up on the instrument panel.The vehicle is actively held at a stop.
For information on the HOLD function:fPlease see the chapter “HOLD FUNCTION: DRIVE-OFF ASSISTANT, STANDSTILL MANAGEMENT” on page 184.
Information
– Depending on the traffic flow, e.g. slow moving traffic, stopping is initiated by a slow crawling phase, which brings the vehicle to a standstill.– When adaptive cruise control is operating normally or when the HOLD function is active, the brake pedal may feel different and you may hear hydraulic noises.This behavior is normal for the system. It is not a fault.
Suitable for speedy driving in lines of traffic. The time gap is 1 second. This corresponds to approx. 36 yd. (33 meters) at a speed of 75 mph (120 km/h).
Suitable for steady driving in lines of traffic. The time gap is 1.3 seconds. This corresponds to approx. 47 yd. (43 meters) at a speed of 75 mph (120 km/h).
Preset distance Corresponds to the general recommendation of the road traffic safety regulation (“two seconds time headway”). The time gap is 1.8 seconds. This corresponds to approx. 66 yd. (60 meters) at a speed of 75 mph (120 km/h).
Suitable for driving on country roads. The time gap is 2.3 seconds. This corresponds to approx. 63 yd. (58 meters) at a speed of 55 mph (90 km/h).

Warning messages
The warning message “ Sport mode not available ” appears on the multi-function display in the instrument panel in the event of a fault.
For information on warning messages on the multi-function display:fPlease see the chapter “OVERVIEW OF WARNING AND INFORMATION MESSAGES” on page 129.
Information
After the ignition is switched off, Sport mode is automatically reset to Normal mode.fPlease see the chapter “PORSCHE ACTIVE SUSPENSION MANAGEMENT (PASM)” on page 185.fPlease see the chapter “PORSCHE DYNAMIC CHASSIS CONTROL (PDCC)” on page 187.
Extending Front and Rear Spoilers
The extending spoilers improve driving stability at high speeds.
Spoilers extended manually or as a result of selecting Sport Plus mode do not retract when the vehicle stops.fPlease remember, for example when parking or in multi-storey car parks, that the ground clearance is limited.
Automatic mode
Depending on the vehicle speed and the position of the sun roof, the spoilers extend automatically above approx. 75 mph (120 km/h) and retract again below approx. 50 mph (80 km/h).
If the automatic control system fails, the warning message “ Spoiler loss Reduce speed” appears on the multi-function display.fPlease see the chapter “OVERVIEW OF WARNING AND INFORMATION MESSAGES” on page 129.
Display of the warning message “ Spoiler loss Reduce speed ” indicates failure of the extending spoilers. Driving stability will be adversely affected, for example through increased rear axle lift at higher speeds.fAdapt your driving style and speed to the changed driving behavior.fHave the fault corrected at an authorized Porsche dealer.
