Safety and Driving Pleasure
Just in case: Safety in the event of
a breakdown or emergency
If you break down, pay attention to this information
– for your own safety!
e
When emergency repairs become necessary,
move the vehicle well off the road. Turn on the
emergency flasher and use other warning devices
to alert other motorists. Do not park or operate
the vehicle in areas where the hot exhaust system
may come in contact with dry grass, brush, spilled
fuel or other flammable material.
Do not use voice control in case of an
emergency
In an emergency, your voice can change so much due
to stress that voice control does not recognize it.
e
Do not use voice control in an emergency.
Removing the fire extinguisher
If available in the relevant vehicle, the fire extin-
guisher is located under the passenger seat.
e
Hold the extinguisher with one hand and press
the PRESS button on the fire extinguisher holder
with the other hand.
For a proper and safe handling of the fire extin-
guisher, please note the following points:
e
Observe the inspection intervals for the fire extin-
guisher. If the fire extinguisher is used after the
inspection interval has elapsed, functionality is no
longer guaranteed.
e
Observe the operating instructions on the fire
extinguisher.
e
Observe the safety instructions on the leaflet
supplied by the fire extinguisher manufacturer on
the extinguisher handle.
e
Have the fire extinguisher checked by an autho-
rized Porsche dealer every one or two years.
e
Have the fire extinguisher refilled after use.
Caution when working on the vehicle
Certain types of work on the vehicle require the use
of protective equipment, such as gloves for
preventing cuts.
e
If you are not fully familiar with repair or mainte-
nance procedures, do not attempt the works
CAUTION
Hot Exhaust System
The exhaust system is very hot when the engine is
running and for a while after the engine has been
stopped. Risk of burns and fire!
e
Do not park your vehicle in places where combus-
tible materials, such as dry grass or leaves, can
come into contact with the hot exhaust system.
e
To prevent injury, make a point of noting where
your vehicle’s exhaust pipe is, avoid placing your
legs near the exhaust pipe, and closely supervise
children around the vehicle during time when the
exhaust pipe could be hot. A hot exhaust pipe can
cause serious burns.
WARNING
Hot Engine Parts and Hot
Coolant
The engine and adjacent components, the exhaust
system and the coolant become very hot when the
engine is running.
The coolant reservoir is pressurized. The hot coolant
may suddenly escape if the coolant reservoir is not
opened carefully.
e
Stop the engine and, if possible, let it cool.
e
Keep body parts, clothes, long hair and jewelry
away from all moving parts, such as fans and
drive belts.
e
Take care when working near hot vehicle parts,
particularly the engine and exhaust system.
e
Wear protective gloves that protect against hot
parts.
e
Only top up coolant when the engine is stopped
and the ignition is switched off.
e
Do not open the cap of the coolant reservoir when
the engine is hot. Wait until the coolant tempera-
ture gauge displays a temperature below 140 °F
(60 °C).
