Safety belts only offer protection when the backrest is upright and the belts are properly positioned on the body.Improperly positioned safety belts or safety belts worn by passengers in an excessively reclined position can cause serious personal injury or death in an accident.fDo not operate the car with the driver or passenger backrests excessively reclined.fPlease see the chapter “SEAT POSITION” on page 32.

The driver and front passenger seats provide integrated head restraints in the backrests. The head restraints are not adjustable. The rear seats do not provide head restraints.
All occupants, including the driver, should not operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat until the headrests and backrests are placed in their proper positions so that the risk of neck injuries is minimized in the event of a crash.fAdjust the backrest's inclination such that the headrest is in an upright position.fDriver and passengers should be seated upright and in the center of their seats.
Front Seats
Seat position
A ergonomically correct sitting position is important for safe and fatigue-free driving. We recommend the following procedure for adjusting the driver’s seat to suit individual requirements: 1. Adjust the seat height to give yourself enough headroom and a good overview of the vehicle.2. Adjust the seat in fore-and-aft direction so that your leg is not fully straight and your entire foot is on the pedal when pressing the pedals fully.3. Grip the top half of the steering wheel. Set the backrest angle and the steering wheel position so that your arms are almost outstretched. However, your shoulders must still rest on the backrest.4. Adjust the seat fore-and-aft setting if necessary.
Adjusting the seat
The seat may move further than desired if you attempt to adjust it when driving. You may lose control of the vehicle.fDo not adjust the seat when driving.
If persons or animals are within the range of movement of the seat, they could become trapped or crushed when you adjust the seat.fAdjust the seat so that no-one is put at risk.

Seat adjustment for the passenger’s seat
Safety belts only offer protection when the backrest is positioned at an upright seating angle and the belts are properly positioned on the body.fDo not operate the car with the driver or passenger backrests excessively reclined.
Vehicle modifications to accommodate persons with disabilities
Because modifications to your vehicle could compromise your advanced airbag system, please call 1-800-PORSCHE prior to having your vehicle modified.
To reduce risk of injury or death to a child from an inflating airbag in an accident, Porsche strongly recommends:
Before transporting a child on the passenger seat:fPlease see the chapter “PASS AIR BAG OFF INDICATOR LAMP DOES NOT LIGHT UP” on page 42.fUnder all normal circumstances, the child seat must be placed in the rear. Do not use a child restraint system in the front passenger seat.
Automatic deactivation of the passenger airbag
Before transporting a child on the passenger seat:fPlease see the chapter “CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS” on page 42.– When an up to one-year old child is seated in the child restraint system, the front airbag is automatically deactivated on the passenger side.– When an adult is seated in the passenger’s seat the front airbag is automatically activated.
PASS AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
Information
Depending on the weight, body positioning and shape acting on the passenger's seat, it can occur in the case of heavier children that the passenger airbag is active or, in the case of very light adults or young persons, that the passenger airbag is deactivated.
The condition of the passenger airbag system is shown by the indicator lamp in the overhead operating console.If in doubt:fFasten the forward facing child restraint system on the rear seat or transport the passenger on the rear seat.

Activating the automatic locking retractor
1. If a child restraint system must be fastened to the passenger's seat, adjust the passenger's seat as far away from the airbag as possible.2. Position child seat according to the child seat’s manufacturer instructions.3. Pull the safety belt retractor completely out. At this point the locking mechanism is activated.4. Insert the safety belt tongue into the buckle and make certain that it is properly latched. Make no more adjustments to the seat. 5. Allow the safety belt to retract until it is tight on the child restraint system. You may further tighten the belt by pulling on it to allow more of it to retract.Make sure that excessive safety belt forces do not occur by moving the seat with the child seat installed.
Releasing the safety belt
1. Unbuckle the safety belt latch. 2. Then make certain that the belt has fully retracted. At this point the automatic locking feature will be disengaged.Seek appropriate advice from your authorized Porsche dealer about the possible installation of a Porsche child restraint system.
LATCH Child Seat System
LATCH child seats are the best option for mounting a child seat in your Porsche. Such LATCH child seats can be installed only using the LATCH system in the rear seats.
Use only child restraint systems with the LATCH system ( Lower Anchorage and Tether for Ch ildren) recommended by Porsche. These systems have been tested and adjusted to the interior of your Porsche and the appropriate child weight groups. Other systems have not been tested and could entail an increased risk of injury.
You can obtain child seats that are LATCH- compatible at your authorized Porsche dealer.
Always observe the separate installation instructions for your child seat.Using a LATCH child seat system
The rear seats are equipped with the LATCH system (lower anchorage and anchor points for tether straps on the back of the backrests).
Removing the backrest lower section
Detach the backrest lower section at the top center (Velcro strap) and disengage from the ISOFIX brackets.
Markings on the right and left for the LATCH child seat anchorage can be found on the backrest lower section of the rear seats.
The anchor bars A for the LATCH child seat anchorage can be found under the backrest lower section.
