Lights, Turn Signals and Windshield Wipers
65
Information
If the ignition key is removed and the door is
opened while the lights are on, an audible signal
(gong) warns of possible battery discharge.
– In some countries, differences are possible
due to legal requirements.
The vehicle’s exterior lights can mist up due to
temperature and humidity. This misting will dry off
after a sufficient distance has been driven.
Low beam/driving light
If the light switch is set to the position
,
the low beam is switched on automatically in the
following situations:
– Dusk
– Darkness
– Driving through tunnels
– Rain
– Highway driving (on vehicles with
Porsche Dynamic Light System PDLS)
When the low beam is switched on, the indicator
light on the speedometer lights up.
Information
Fog is not automatically recognized.
f
In the event of fog, the driving light must be
switched on manually.
Daytime driving lights
If the light switch is set to position
(light off),
the daytime driving lights come on automatically
when the ignition is switched on.
If the light switch is set to position
, the
daytime driving lights come on automatically in
bright conditions and when the ignition is switched
on.
The daytime driving lights are not active when the
light switch is set to position
(low beam/
driving light).
Automatic driving light assistant
The automatic driving light assistant is a comfort
function. The driving light (low beam) is switched
on and off automatically depending on the ambient
brightness.
The automatic driving light assistant also controls
the daytime driving lights, low beam, Automatic
Coming Home lights and the equipment-
dependent dynamic cornering light.
The automatic driving light assistant is activated
when the light switch is set to the position
.
Despite possible support by the driving light
assistant, it is the responsibility of the driver to
switch on the driving light using the conventional
light switch in accordance with the relevant
national regulations.
Activating the headlights using the driving light
assistant therefore does not absolve the driver
of responsibility for correct operation of the
driving light.
