Starting Procedures
WARNING
• Fasten safety belts before driving off.
• Never start or let the engine run in an en-
closed, unventilated area. Exhaust fumes
from the engine contain carbon mo-
noxide, which is a colorless and odor-
less gas. Carbon monoxide can be fatal
if inhaled.
• Never leave engine idling unattended.
An unattended vehicle with a running
engine is potentially hazardous.
• Do not park or operate the vehicle in
areas where the hot exhaust system may
come in contact with dry grass, brush,
fuel spill or other flammable material.
• Never leave engine idling. When starting
engine, be ready to drive off immediate-
ly. Maintain moderate speed until engine
is warm.
Before starting the engine, make sure the
gearshift lever is in Neutral.
Temperature sensors on the engine automat-
ically provide the correct fuel/air mixture re-
quired for starting.
Therefore, it is not necessary to depress the
accelerator pedal while starting a cold or a
warm engine.
When the engine is hot, fully depress the ac-
celerator pedal while starting.
When starting at very low outside temper-
atures, fully depress the clutch pedal, so that
the starter only has to crank the engine.
As soon as the engine starts, release the ig-
nition key.
If the engine fails to start after 10 to 15 sec-
onds of cranking, wait about 10 seconds
before restarting.
Do not let the engine idle to warm it up. After
starting, accelerate gradually and maintain
moderate speed. Avoid high rpm and full throt-
tle until the engine has reached normal oper-
ating temperature.
Stopping engine
Turn key back to position 0.
Do not stop engine immediately after hard
or extended driving. Keep engine running
at increased idle for about two minutes to
prevent excessive heat build-up before
turning off engine.
WARNING
• Before you check anything in the engine
compartment, let the engine cool down.
Hot components can burn skin on con-
tact.
• The radiator fan switches on automati-
cally when the coolant reaches a certain
temperature and continues to run (even
with ignition off) until the coolant tem-
perature drops. Therefore, never touch
the fan blades as they will rotate spon-
taneously when the thermoswitch turns
the fan on.
If your have an automatic garage door...
The transistorized ignition system in your
Porsche may interfere with your electronically
operated garage door. To check this: drive
your Porsche close to the garage door and run
the engine at different speeds.
If the garage door opens or closes without
your operating the garage door unit in your car,
contact the dealer who installed the automatic
garage door to have the frequency and/or
coding of the garage door signal modified.
