Safety and Driving Pleasure
e
Reduce speed immediately, but without braking
sharply.
e
Stop the vehicle and inspect the tires. If a cause
cannot be established for the fault, drive on
carefully and have the fault corrected.
Visit an authorized Porsche dealer, as they have
trained technicians and the necessary parts and
tools.
Keeping tires in a safe condition
Damaged tires can burst, especially at high speeds.
Prevent damage to the tires by driving carefully.
e
Cross curb edges slowly and at right angles if
possible.
e
Avoid driving over steep or sharp curbs.
Running in new tires
New tires have not yet achieved their maximum grip
and tend to slip.
e
Drive at moderate speed during the first
125 miles (200 km) with new tires.
Driving with snow tires
Maximum speed values apply for snow tires. If you
exceed the maximum permitted speed, the tires may
burst.
e
Always observe the maximum permitted speed
for the respective tire.
e
Affix the sticker with the maximum permitted
speed in the driver’s field of vision. Observe
country-specific regulations.
e
Set the maximum permitted speed as the speed
limit using the multifunction display:
f
Please see chapter „Adjusting the speed limit“ on
page 142.
Driving with summer tires
Parking or maneuvering at outside temperatures
below 60 °F (15 °C) may result in noises.
e
Change to snow tires when outside temperatures
are below 45 °F (7 °C).
Driving with sports tires
Your vehicle may be equipped with special sports
tires (ultra-high performance tires) as summer tires.
This type of tire is approved for use on public
highways and meets all statutory requirements and
safety criteria.
The design of the tire is also geared towards use on
race circuits (driver safety training courses, sports
driving schools, Club Sport events) and provides
significant advantages in terms of dry grip and wear
compared to standard road tires. The sports tires on
the vehicle harden at very low temperatures below
approx. 19 °F (–7 °C). This can lead to cracks and
erosion of the tires.
e
Do not drive the vehicle at temperatures below
approx. 19 °F (–7 °C).
Important features are a smaller tread depth and
special tread pattern and casing.
The design features of these sports tires lead to the
following effects compared to other summer tires
when used in normal road conditions:
Sport tires have a smaller tread depth and may there-
fore reach their wear limit sooner.
– As with all tires, the attainable mileage depends
on the individual driving style and the conditions
of use.
– On wet roads, especially in aquaplaning situations
(e.g. standing water, puddles, lane grooves, etc.)
it is advisable to exercise caution because of the
lower tread depth and to adapt speed accord-
ingly.
– The higher performance requires that you adapt
your attention appropriately in extreme driving
situations, because potentially exceeding the
upper performance limits also entails greater
risks
e
Notify anyone using your vehicle of these charac-
teristics and the possible effects.
The reduced tire tread depth means that there is an
increased risk of aquaplaning on wet roads. Road
surface contact, control over the vehicle and braking
ability can be lost.
e
Reduce vehicle speed significantly when driving
on wet or mud-covered roads.
Sport tires have a smaller tread depth and may there-
fore reach their wear limit sooner.
e
Check the tread depth regularly.
Assistance systems and their limits
Your Porsche is equipped with driver assistance
systems for driving comfort.
None of these systems can overcome the limits set
by the laws of driving physics.
e
These systems should not induce you to take
greater risks with your safety. The driver assis-
tance systems cannot reduce the risk of
accidents due to an inappropriate driving style.
e
The driver assistance systems cannot replace
your attention. Drive with care so you can respond
appropriately to the traffic situation.
e
Familiarize yourself with the driver assistance
systems before using them.
