Porsche Vehicle Tracking
System (PVTS)
PVTS is a GSM/GPS-based tracking system that al-
lows a Security Operating Center (SOC) to locate the
vehicle if it is stolen. It can then be found by the
authorities.
Information
On vehicles with the smartphone app or Car Connect
(depending on country), certain settings can be im-
plemented directly using the app.
Detailed information on installation, the functions
and management of the contract can be found at:
www.porsche.com/connect.
Scope of supply and initial
activation
PVTS is tested by the authorized Porsche dealer and
activated together with the vehicle owner.
After activation, the vehicle owner will receive im-
portant documents such as the phone number of the
local Security Operating Center (SOC) and your
service provider.
Detailed activation information is available from
www.porsche.com/connect or from an authorized
Porsche dealer.
Functions
The vehicle will only be located in the event of theft.
In this event, a notification is sent to the cellphone
number provided. For security reasons, the position
of the vehicle is not communicated in the
notification.
e Contact the Security Operating Center (SOC) if
your vehicle is stolen. In addition, report the theft
to the relevant police authority.
The following alarms can be set:
– Unauthorized movement of the vehicle : The ve-
hicle is moved with the ignition switched off. On
vehicles with Driver Card: The vehicle is moved
without a Driver Card.
– Sabotage : PVTS was used without authorization.
– Intrusion alarm : The alarm system was triggered
and has been active for more than 15 seconds.
Information
– There is no guarantee that a theft will be de-
tected under all circumstances.
– The PVTS alarm can be triggered even if the ve-
hicle battery is flat.
Information
Note for Belgium / Luxembourg:
If the Driver Card remains in the shut-off vehicle for
more than 30 minutes, it will become invalid. In or-
der to reactivate the card, the disarming mode must
be accessed via the app, customer portal, or Service
Operating Center (SOC).
Information
– The Security Operating Center (SOC) can pre-
vent the engine from starting if the vehicle has
been stolen.
– On vehicles with Porsche Connect or Car
Connect smartphone app (depending on coun-
try), access to the vehicle using the app or via My
Porsche is blocked in the event of theft.

Card
When PVTS is operated normally, no intervention on
your part is required.
Transport
If a vehicle is transported with the ignition switched
off (e.g. on a ferry), activate transport mode.

lowing situations:
