Regularly check your vehicle for signs of
damage.
Damaged or missing aerodynamic
components such as spoilers or underside
panels affect the driving behavior and
therefore must be replaced immediately.
Your car may have all or some of the components
described in this manual.
Should you have difficulty understanding any of
the explanations of features or equipment installed
in your vehicle, contact your authorized Porsche
dealer. He/She will be glad to assist you. Also
check with your dealer on other available options
or equipment.
Throughout this booklet, left is designated as the
driver's side of the vehicle, and right as the
passenger's side of the vehicle.
Text, illustrations and specifications in this manual
are based on the information available at the time
of printing.
It has always been Porsche’s policy to
continuously improve its products. Porsche,
therefore, reserves the right to make changes in
design and specification, and to make additions or
improvements in its product without incurring any
obligation to install them on products previously
manufactured.
We wish you many miles of safe and pleasurable
driving in your Porsche.

Driving on Race Circuit
(e.g. Sports Driving Schools, Club
Sport Events)
Brake fluid, brake pads and brake disks
Brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air over
time. This accumulation of water lowers the
boiling point and can impair braking action if the
brakes are subjected to high temperatures, such
as can occur on race circuits (sports driving
school, Club Sport events).
The brake fluid should therefore not be more than
12 months old if the vehicle is driven on race
circuits (sports driving school, Club Sport events).
f
For more information, see the “ Maintenance”
booklet.
Wear on the brake pads and brake disks depends
to a great extent on the driving style and driving
conditions. Wear on the brake components is
increased as a result of high temperatures, such
as can occur on race circuits (sports driving
school, Club Sport events).
f
Before and after driving on race circuits
(sports driving school, Club Sport events), it is
important therefore to carry out a visual
inspection of the brake pads and brake disks
for wear.
Racing tires
The fitting of racing tires (e.g. slicks) for sporting
events is not approved by Porsche.
Very high cornering speeds can be achieved with
racing tires. The resulting transverse acceleration
values would jeopardise the adequate supply of oil
to the engine.
Porsche therefore refuses to accept any
guarantee or liability for damage occurring as
a result of non-compliance with this provision.
