Driving and Driving Safety
Porsche Drive-Off Assistant –
Moving-off assistant on vehicles with
manual transmission
The Porsche Drive-Off Assistant enables the driver
to move off on upward slopes. The vehicle must
have sufficient road contact to use this feature.
The Porsche Drive-Off Assistant is available for
slopes starting at approximately 5%.
f
Please see the chapter “TRAILER COUPLING”
on Page 231.
Danger!
Risk of accident, resulting in serious perso-
nal injury or death.
When moving off on a slippery surface (e.g.,
on icy or loose surfaces), assistance by the
Porsche Drive-Off Assistant is no longer
assured. In this case, the vehicle could slip.
The limits set by the physics of driving cannot
be overcome, even with the Porsche Drive-
Off Assistant. The responsibility for moving
off on upward slopes is still the driver's,
despite the Porsche Drive-Off Assistant.
f
Always adjust your driving style to the driving
conditions and vehicle load, use the footbrake
if necessary.
Moving off with Porsche Drive-Off Assistant
1. Hold the vehicle securely with footbrake or
parking brake on the slope.
The engine must be running.
2. Fully depress the clutch pedal.
3. Engage one of the gears used to ascend in the
direction of travel (1st gear or reverse).
4. While keeping the clutch pedal depressed,
release the footbrake or foot-operated parking
brake.
The vehicle is held on the slope.
5. Move off as usual.
Note on operation
The Porsche Drive-Off Assistant ceases to func-
tion:

Danger!
Risk of accident, resulting in serious perso-
nal injury or death.
