Radar sensor
Adaptive cruise control uses a radar sensor located in the center of the front apron ( arrow).
Information
fAlways keep the radar sensor clean and free of ice and snow to ensure that it is fully functional.
For car care instructions:fPlease see the chapter “CAR CARE INSTRUCTIONS” on page 231.
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance of 8 in. (20 cm) between the radiator and your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Radar sensor vision can be impaired by rain, snow, ice or heavy spray. Vehicles in front will not be detected properly or may not be detected at all.fDo not use adaptive cruise control under these conditions.
Warning message
Adaptive cruise control can be deactivated automatically if the radar sensor is very dirty or is covered in ice or by an obstacle, in unfavorable weather conditions (heavy rain) or when driving through tunnels.The message “ ACC/PAS unavailable Service required ” will appear on the multi-function display in the instrument panel.

168 Driving and Driving Safety
Acute warning (acoustic, visual and tangible)
If the driver does not react to the prewarning by braking, this is quickly followed by an acute warning, which involves a braking jolt as well as the acoustic and visual warning.
A braking jolt is felt in the vehicle as a result of a very quick build-up of brake pressure. This alerts the driver to the traffic situation. The driver can still prevent a collision by reacting accordingly in this dangerous situation.
Risk of collision with the vehicle in front.fBrake immediately.
Information
The situations described below lead to the assumption that the driver is driving carefully and the prewarning and acute warning functions are disabled:– The driver drives around tight corners.– The driver is braking.– If the driver accelerates sharply, this action is interpreted as an active driving request (e.g. indicating the driver’s intention to overtake).
Switching Porsche “Active Safe” warnings on/off
The latent warning and prewarning functions are switched off by default. The acute warning function is active. Latent warnings and prewarnings can be activated under “ Prewarning on” on the multi-function display.
The settings remain stored when the ignition is switched on and off.fPLEASE SEE THE CHAPTER “ACTIVE SAFETY – PORSCHE “ACTIVE SAFE”” on page 167.
Car Audio Operation/Tips
For radio operation see your radio manual which is included with your on-board literature.
FM reception
A vehicle is not an ideal place to listen to a radio. Because the vehicle moves, reception conditions are constantly changing. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and noise from other vehicles are all working against good reception. Some conditions affecting FM may appear to be problems when they are not.
The following characteristics are completely normal for a given reception area, and they do not indicate any problem with the radio itself.
Information
Electronic accessories should only be installed by your authorized Porsche dealer.Equipment which has not been tested and approved by Porsche may impair radio reception.
Fading and drifting
FM range is limited to about 25 miles (40 km), except for some high power stations.
If a vehicle is moving away from the desired station's transmitter, the signal will tend to fade and/or drift. This condition is more prevalent with FM than AM, and is often accompanied by distortion.Fading and drifting can be minimized to a certain degree by careful attention to fine tuning or selection of a stronger signal.
