276 Minor Repairs
Replacing bulbs
Replacing Light-Emitting Diodes and Long-Life Bulbs
The vehicle lighting as well as the interior lights have light-emitting diodes and long-life bulbs.The LEDs cannot be replaced individually. Replacement of the long-life bulbs involves a greater amount of installation work.fHave defective LEDs and bulbs replaced at an authorized Porsche dealer.
The headlights are under high voltage when installed.fExercise extreme care when working close to the headlights.
Risk of short circuit.fAlways switch off the relevant load when changing bulbs.
Risk of damage.
Bulbs of a high wattage can damage the housing.
Information
Bulbs must be clean and free from grease.fNever touch bulbs with your bare hands. Use a cloth or soft paper when replacing bulbs.fAlways carry spare bulbs with you.In certain countries, it is mandatory to carry spare bulbs.
Headlights
Risk of damage to headlights due to abrasion and excessive temperatures.fDo not affix any coverings (e.g. “stone guards” or film) close to the headlights.fUse soapy water only to clean light lenses and plastic headlight lenses. In no case may chemical cleaners or other volatile cleaning fluids be used.fTo prevent scratches, do not rub with a dry or merely moist cloth, tissue or insect sponges.
Information
The headlights and tail lights can mist up due to temperature and humidity.fTo ensure optimum ventilation, do not cover the gap between light and body.

Headlight Adjustment
fCheck tire pressure and adjust if necessary.fPlease see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURE FOR COLD TIRES (68 °F/ 20 °C)” on page 287.fPlease see the chapter “REPLACING BULBS” on page 276.
Adjustment
The adjustment is made with the vehicle ready to drive and the fuel tank completely filled.
The driver's seat must be loaded by a person or a 165 lbs. (75 kg) weight and the tire pressures must meet the prescribed values. After being loaded, the car must be rolled a few meters so that the suspension can settle.
For checking the headlight adjustment, the vertical position of the cutoff of the low beam (see fig.) has to be projected on a vertical screen (wall) in distance of 24.6 ft. (7.5 m) from the front lens of the headlamp. The correct position of the cutoff is 2.0 in. (5 cm) at 24.6 ft. or 7.5 m (0.4°) below a horizontal line, x cm from ground to the center of the headlamp lens.
Lateral adjustment of the headlights should be carried out at an authorized Porsche dealer.
Distance
Visual aim shall be performed at not less than 24.6 ft. (7.5 m) (this value is a rounded down conversion from the 25-foot distance typical of field aim using a screen). The 24.6 ft. (7.5 m) distance is measured from the headlamp lens to the viewing screen.
Floor
The surface upon which the vehicle rests is flat and approximately level.
Screen
The screen upon which headlamp beams are projected is perpendicular to the floor and the vehicle's longitudinal axis, flat, uniformly light in color, unobstructed, and wide and high enough to accommodate the vehicle beam patterns to be aimed.
The screen should be wide enough to provide at least 3.3 ft. (1 m) of space outboard of the vehicle's headlamp spacing.
