Tiptronic S
The Porsche Tiptronic is a five-speed transmission
with an “automatic” and a “manual” selection
mode.
In
automatic selection mode (selector lever po-
sition D ), gear changing is automatic.
You can change temporarily from automatic to
manual mode using the rocker switches on the
steering wheel.
In
manual selection mode (selector lever posi-
tion M ), you change gear using the rocker switch-
es on the steering wheel.
You can change between selector lever position
D
and M as you wish while driving.
Note
Take care not to operate the rocker switches on
the steering wheel inadvertently in either auto mat-
ic or manual mode, thereby triggering undesired
gear changes.
Keylock position
The
ignition key
can be withdrawn only in selec-
tor lever position P .
Changing the selector lever position
The selector lever is locked with the ignition key
withdrawn.
The selector lever can be moved from position
P
or N only with:
– the ignition switched on,
– the brake pedal pressed and
– the release button pressed.
Release button
The release button (
arrow
) in the selector lever
prevents unintentional gear changes.
The release button must be pressed when shifting
to position R or P .
Starting
The engine can be started only if the brake pedal
is depressed and the selector lever is in position
P
or
N
.
Moving off
f Only select the desired position for moving off
( D , M or R ) when the engine is idling and the
brake pedal is depressed.
f Since the vehicle creeps when in gear, do not
release the brake until you want to move off.
f After selecting a gear, do not accelerate until
you can feel that the gear is engaged.
