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.

Changing fuses
In order to prevent damage to the electrical system due to short circuits and overloads, the individual circuits are protected by fuses.
The fuse boxes are located in the side walls of the driver’s and passenger’s footwell respectively. 1. Switch off the load with the defective fuse. 2. Detach the appropriate plastic cover at the finger hole.3. Remove the relevant fuse (see fuse assignment) from its slot using the yellow plastic gripper A (left fuse box) in order to check it.A blown fuse can be identified by the melted metal strip.4. Replace only with fuses of the same rating. Spare fuses can be found in the left-hand fuse box, next to the yellow plastic gripper.We recommend that you use genuine Porsche fuses for replacement.

Putting vehicle into operation
After the battery is connected or after a fully discharged battery is charged, the PSM warning light lights up on the instrument panel and a message appears on the multi-function display in the instrument panel to indicate a fault.
This fault can be corrected with a few simple steps: 1. Start the engine. To do this, turn the ignition key or the control unit (on vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive) to ignition lock position 2 twice. 2. With the vehicle stationary, perform a few steering movements to the left and right and then drive a short distance in a straight line until the PSM warning light goes out and the message is erased from the multi-function display in the instrument panel.3. If the warnings do not disappear, then: Drive carefully to the nearest authorized Porsche dealer.Have the fault corrected.4. After the warnings go out: Stop the vehicle in a suitable place.5. Store the end position for the power windows.
For information on storing the end positions for the power windows: fPlease see the chapter “STORING END POSITION OF THE WINDOWS AFTER CONNECTING THE VEHICLE BATTERY” on page 63.6. Teach tires on vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitoring.
For information on teaching the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): fPlease see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURE MENU (TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM, TPMS)” on page 105.7. Store end position on vehicles with a sunroof.
For information on storing the end position for the sunroof: fPlease see the chapter “STORING END POSITION OF THE SUNROOF” on page 66.fPlease see the chapter “STORING END POSITION OF THE ROLL-UP SUNBLIND” on page 67.
External Power Supply, Emergency
starting with jumper cables
If the battery is flat, the battery of another vehicle can be used for starting or as an external power supply with the help of jump leads.
Both batteries must be 12 V batteries. The capacity (Ah) of the donor battery must not be substantially less than that of the flat battery.
The flat battery must be connected correctly to the vehicle’s electrical system.
A short circuit may be caused if unsuitable jumper cables are used or if jumper cable starting is not performed properly. Such short circuits can cause a fire.fUse only standard jumper cables with sufficient cross section and completely insulated alligator clips. Follow the instructions provided by the jumper cable manufacturer.fRoute the jumper cables so that they cannot be caught by moving parts in the engine compartment.The jumper cables must be long enough so that neither vehicles nor cables touch another.fThe vehicles must not touch, otherwise current might flow as soon as the positive terminals are connected.fEnsure that tools or conductive jewelry (rings, chains, watch straps) do not come into contact with the positive jumper cable, the positive battery post or live parts of the vehicle.fImproper hook-up of jumper cables can ruin the alternator.
