Off-road driving

Please read this chapter carefully before driving

off road with your Porsche.
The information provided will familiarise you with

the special advantages of your vehicle, allowing

you to arrive at your destination safely every time.
We recommend practising on less rugged terrain.

Vehicles with SportDesign package

Warning!

Risk of damage. On vehicles with the

Sport-Design package, front, rear and side

member trims are painted. Off-road driving

can seriously damage these trim parts.

When driving off-road, make sure these parts

are not damaged.

Make sure there is sufficient clearance

between obstacles and the underside of the

vehicle.

Avoid driving through water.

Do not use side member trims or rear wheel

spoilers as a running board.

Maintenance note

Please bear in mind that off-road driving subjects

all vehicle components to considerably more wear

than normal use, making professional inspection

and maintenance after every use vital precondi-

tions for functioning and safety.
Grains of sand, dirt particles and other abrasive

materials entering the brakes can cause exces-

sive wear or unpredictable braking action.

Rules for off-road driving

Pay attention to the ground clearance of the

vehicle. This information is provided in the

chapter Technical Data in this Driver’s Manual:

Please observe the chapter “GROUND

CLEARANCE” on Page 329.

Activate the Low Range off-road driving

programme.

Stow or fasten luggage and loads securely.

For information on stowing loads and luggage:

Please observe the chapter “STOWING LOAD”

on Page 199.

If unknown terrain is obscured from view,

examine it on foot first and traverse it with

extreme caution.

This way, obstacles are easier to recognise

and damage to the vehicle is avoided.

Always drive with the engine running.

Steering assistance is provided only with the

engine running.

Drive slowly and uniformly.

Always make sure that the wheels are in

contact with the ground.

Before driving through water, check the water

depth, the condition of the surface beneath it

and the speed of the water.

Look out for obstacles such as boulders,

holes, tree stumps or channels.

Always keep the sliding/lifting roof or

Panorama roof system and the side windows

closed while driving.

Do not depart from marked routes or paths.

Respect nature.

Always obey off-limits signs.
