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.

Driving and Driving Safety 165
–“ACC not possible Switch on PSM” Adaptive cruise control is not available because PSM was switched off.For information on Porsche Stability Management (PSM) :fPLEASE SEE THE CHAPTER “PORSCHE STABILITY MANAGEMENT (PSM)” on page 181.–“ ACC off” Adaptive cruise control was deactivated.– “ACC not possible Steering lock too large” The steering is turned too far.
General information
“Sport” and “Sport Plus” Mode
Adaptive cruise control regulates your driving more dynamically in “ Sport” and “Sport Plus” mode.
Exceptions for adaptive cruise control
Adaptive cruise control is not available in the following situations:– If the ignition is switched off.– When PSM is off.– If the driver’s door is opened and the driver’s safety belt is not fastened.– When parking or maneuvering in very tight spaces.– When the electric parking brake is activated.– If the PDK selector lever is in position N , R or P. – On upward or downward slopes of more than 15 %.
If one of these exception situations occurs when adaptive cruise control is switched on, adaptive cruise control will be switched off.A message to this effect appears on the multi-function display.
Warning messages
Overtake request when adaptive cruise control is active (ACC active)
If adaptive cruise control detects that braking assistance is required on the part of the driver, a warning signal sounds and the warning message “ Distance Please brake” appears on the multi- function display.
In this case, the braking power of the adaptive cruise control is not sufficient to prevent a collision.fBrake immediately.
Traffic situations in which vehicles cannot be reliably detected
The radar sensor for adaptive cruise control scans a narrow, cone-shaped area in front of your vehicle.Detection can be limited or unreliable, depending on the traffic situation and the size of the vehicle in front. The system may brake too late or unexpectedly.Stationary vehicles are not detected. The system cannot respond to stationary vehicles.fDrive with extreme care.fSlow down if necessary.
Inadequate braking power during automatic braking by the adaptive cruise control.

Driving and Driving Safety 175
is suppressed because here, the vehicle does not slow down, despite the engine overrun torque and no fuel is consumed in this driving situation due to utilization of the overrun shut-off.
Ending coasting mode/utilizing engine braking effect
fPress the accelerator or brake pedalor Operate a shift paddle or a shift button or Shift gear using the selector lever.
Initiating coasting mode manually
– Driving in selector lever position D or driving in selector lever position M
When coasting mode is suppressed, e.g. in the case of sporty driving, sudden release of the accelerator pedal or excessively low engine temperature, coasting mode can be initiated manually.fTake your foot off the accelerator pedal and shift past the highest possible gear with the shift paddle, one of the shift buttons, or with the selector lever.
Switching coasting mode on and off using the Auto Start Stop button
Switching off
fPress button . The indicator light on the button lights up.Coasting mode is switched off and automatic stopping of the engine is suppressed.
Switching on
fPress button . The indicator light on the button goes out.Coasting mode is switched on and the engine is automatically stopped when the vehicle stops.
“Sport” mode activated
The PDK transmission switches to a sporty gear- changing map and shortens the shifting times.A sporty driving style is recognized more quickly and the gear-changing speeds are adapted to driving performance.
Braking downshifts are initiated earlier. Downshifts occur for small decelerations, even at higher revs.
“Sport Plus” mode activated
In “Sport Plus” mode, the PDK transmission changes to a shift program designed for driving on race circuits. 7th gear is not selected.The gear-changing performance is enhanced significantly again compared with “Sport” mode.fPlease see the chapter ““SPORT” AND “SPORT PLUS” MODE” on page 188.
Driving off with Launch Control
Launch Control allows you to achieve maximum acceleration from standstill.
Launch Control is designed to be used in a controlled environment on closed circuit driving courses where no vehicle cross traffic or pedestrian traffic is present.fUse Launch Control only if conditions permit it to be applied in a safe manner.fDo not use Launch Control if there is a possibility it could endanger other persons.Such a possibility exists if you cannot see that you have a clear road with no possibility of cross traffic in your intended direction of driving.
Information
Stress on components increases dramatically when starting with maximum acceleration in comparison with normal driving off.
Preconditions: – Launch Control should only be used when the engine has reached operating temperature.–“ Sport Plus” mode must be switched on (indicator light on the button comes on and SPORT PLUS appears on the digital speedometer or on the steering wheel).1. Press the brake with your left foot. 2. Quickly press the accelerator down fully (kickdown activated) and hold it.The engine speed will level off at around 5,500 rpm.“ Launch Control activated” is displayed on the multi-function display.Depending on equipment, the “LAUNCH CONTROL” logo appears on the steering wheel.3. Release the brake within a few seconds.
Remaining stationary for a long time with LAUNCH CONTROL can lead to overloading of the transmission.To protect the transmission, the engine power is then reduced and the LAUNCH CONTROL process is cancelled.
In order to drive off, the accelerator must first be fully released.
