228 Maintenance and Car Care
Information
It is important that the service intervals, particularly the oil change intervals, are observed in accordance with the specifications in the “Maintenance” booklet.
Refueling
The RF energy from a cellphone can cause a sparking on bare metal, much like aluminum foil in a microwave oven. The spark could ignite gasoline fumes present while refueling.fDo not use a cellphone while pumping gas.
Static discharge from your body can ignite gasoline fumes present when you get back out of the vehicle and touch the fuel nozzle.fDo not re-enter the vehicle while pumping gas.
1. Stop the engine and switch off the ignition. 2. Open the filler flap by pressing on the rear part of the filler flap ( arrow). The vehicle must be unlocked.
3. Slowly open and remove the tank cap. Put the tank cap into the holder ( arrow). 4. Insert the pump nozzle fully into the filler neck. The handle of the pump nozzle must point downwards.
Total capacity – approx. 18.0 US gallons (68 liters), including approx. 3.17 US gallons (12 liters) reserve

Filling Capacities
Only use fluids and fuels approved by Porsche. Your Porsche dealer will be pleased to advise you.
Engine oil change quantity with oil filter approx. 1.98 US gallons (7.5 liters)
Fuel tankapprox. 18.0 US gallons (68 liters), including approx. 3.17 US gallons (12 liters) reserve
Fuel octane rating
The engine is designed to provide optimum performance and fuel consumption if unleaded premium fuel with 98 RON/88 MON (93 CLC or AKI) is used. If unleaded fuels with octane numbers of less than RON 98/MON 88 (93 CLC or AKI) are used, the engine’s “Electronic Octane™ knock control” automatically adapts the ignition timing. Porsche recommends that you use fuel with at least 95 RON/85 MON (90 CLC or AKI) in your vehicle.
Windshield/headlight washer system approx. 1.59 US gallons (6 liters)
