Storing your Porsche

If you intend to store your Porsche for a prolonged

period, please consult your authorized Porsche

dealer. The staff will be glad to advise you on the

most suitable and necessary methods.

Clean your vehicle thoroughly inside and out-

side.

Clean the engine compartment.

The under carriage and chassis components

should be free of dirt and salt deposits.

Fill up the fuel tank.

Change the oil and oil filter, and run the engine

for several minutes.

Increase the tire pressure to 58 psi (4 bar).

It is not recommended to lift the vehicle, due to

the possibility of corrosion on shock absorber

piston shafts.

The vehicle should be moved slightly, approxi-

mately every four weeks, to prevent flat spot

on the tires.

Remove ignition key.

Climate control

The air conditioning system should be in good

working condition and fully charged.

Windshield/Headlight washer

Check and correct antifreeze/cleaning solution

level as necessary.

Electrical system

If the battery cables remain connected, it is

necessary to connect the trickle charger from

time to time.

Do not fast charge the battery.

Disconnect the battery from the electrical sys-

tem by removing the ground isolating plug.

When the battery is disconnected, the

alarm system is deactivated.

Even when the battery is disconnected from the

vehicle electrical system, it still discharges.

Charge the battery with a suitable charger

every 2 months.

The ground isolating plug must be plugged in.

Please observe the chapter “BATTERY” on

Page 161.

Vehicle interior

The interior must be dry, especially in the area of

the floor carpets. The use of drying agents (Silica-

Gel) is recommended in vehicles with leather inte-

rior and in areas with high humidity. The recom-

mended amount is 3 fabric bags of 1.1 lbs.

(500 grams) each placed on the floor carpets.
Windows, doors and lids must be closed. The air

vents should be opened.
