Your Responsibility for Normal Vehicle Use
Your Owner’s Manual (which includes specific recommendations against
using your car in certain ways) was written with the assumption that you
will use your car only in ways for which it was designed:
• To carry passengers and cargo within specified load limits. (The load
limits are specified on labels located in different places depending on
your model Porsche. Your Owner’s Manual gives the locations.)
• To be driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal speed limits.
Porsche Guidelines specify reasonable mileage to be at least
15 miles / 24 kilometers per day or 6000 miles / 9600 kilometers
per rolling 12 months.
• If you drive less than the above-mentioned limits, or in the event of
prolonged storage, contact your local authorized Porsche dealer
for instructions.
(Note: A battery maintainer is available at your local authorized
Porsche dealer. It must be used to maintain your vehicle’s battery
state of charge if your vehicle will not be used for several days.)
• To be properly maintained according to the Maintenance Schedule
in the Maintenance Booklet and Car Care Instructions in your
Owner’s Manual. You must keep the receipts as proof of maintenance.
• To be run on unleaded gasoline with the recommended octane rating as
specified in the Owner‘s Manual.
Note:
Some Canadian gasolines contain
an octane enhancing additive called methylcyclopentadienyl (MMT).
If such fuels are used in your Porsche automobile, your emission control
system performance may be negatively affected. The malfunction indicator
light (“Check Engine”) on your instrument panel may illuminate. If repairs
are required due to the use of fuels containing MMT, Porsche reserves
the right to deny coverage of those repairs under warranty.
You are responsible for presenting your Porsche automobile to a Porsche
dealer as soon as a problem exists. Failure to do so could result in conse-
quential damage that may not be covered by your New Car Limited Warranty.
Pre-Delivery Inspection
Porsche seeks to provide the highest degree of customer satisfaction
possible. Accordingly, repairs and replacements are made at different
stages of the delivery process in order to assure high standards of quality
for your new car.
Every effort is made to detect and remedy even the slightest flaws or
damage at inspection sites at the factory, after transportation from the
factory, and at the dealer location. Damage to or flaws in the mechanical
systems, body, electrical system, frame, paint, trim, interior, and other
components of your car, whether occurring at the factory or during trans-
portation, may have been repaired or replaced.
