The oil level reading is shown on the segment
display in the oil level menu.

maximum mark.
f
Under no circumstances add engine oil.
If the bottom segment is filled in (illustration
B
),
the oil level has reached the minimum mark.
The message “Oil level minimum reached”
appears on the multi-purpose display.
f
Add engine oil immediately.
If the bottom segment is red (illustration

), the oil
level has dropped below the minimum mark.
The message “Oil level below minimum” appears
on the multi-purpose display.
f

Top-up quantity
The difference between the minimum and
maximum marks on the segment display is
approx. 1.06 qt. (1 liter).
One segment of the display corresponds to
a top-up quantity of approx. 0.26 qt. (0.25 liter).
f
Never add more engine oil than required to
reach the maximum mark.
The maximum permitted engine filling capacity
has been exceeded (illustration
D
). Exceeding the
maximum capacity may result in blue smoke
formation and cause long-term damage to the
catalytic converters depending on the overfill
quantity and various external influences.
If too much engine oil was added, the message
“Oil level above maximum” appears on the multi-
purpose display.
f
Have the oil quantity corrected at the next
authorized Porsche dealer.
Measuring the oil level after topping up
engine oil or opening the engine
compartment lid
The oil level can be checked after waiting for
approx. 2 minutes with the vehicle parked on
a level surface and the engine at operating
temperature.
Failure
If the oil-level gauge fails, the message “Failure Oil
level measurement” appears on the multi-purpose
display.
Setting speed limits
If a speed limit is preset and activated on the
multi-purpose display, a warning message
appears if the speed limit is exceeded.
A speed limit can be used to remind the driver to
keep to the maximum speed permitted for the tire
type fitted to the vehicle, for example.
