– A plug connection of the hybrid system is

off of the hybrid system has been activated.
e
Never attempt to restart the hybrid system
yourself.
e
Visit a qualified specialist workshop. Porsche
recommends a Porsche partner as they have
trained workshop personnel and the necessary
parts and tools.
Before driving on race tracks
Compared to normal road use, when driving on cir-
cuits the vehicle is subjected to disproportionately
higher loads. In pure racing vehicles these loads are
taken account of by regular maintenance and com-
ponent reconditioning intervals. These cover checks
and the replacement of individual components
where necessary after each use on the track, as well
as the reconditioning of entire assemblies after cer-
tain periods of use.
e Always make inquiries about the current stipula-
tions before driving on race tracks: Contact an
authorized Porsche dealer.
Brake system
Brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air over time.
This absorption of water lowers the boiling point and
can severely impair braking efficiency at high
temperatures.
Driving on racetracks puts high pressure on brake
pads and brake disks.
e If the brake fluid is more than 12 months old:
Replace brake fluid before driving on a track.
e Have the brake pads and brake disks checked for
wear before and after driving on tracks.
Tires
The tires are also subject to high stress when the
vehicle is driven around a track.
e Have the tires checked for wear before and after
driving on tracks.
e
Do not fit racing tires. Racing tires are not ap-
proved by Porsche.
Engine oil
e
Add engine oil up to the maximum mark before
driving on tracks.
e Check the engine oil level before and after driving
on tracks.

Before driving abroad
Government regulations in the United States and
Canada require that automobiles meet specific
emission regulations and safety standards. There-
fore, cars built for the U.S. and Canada differ from
vehicles sold in other countries.
If you plan to take your Porsche outside the conti-
nental limits of the United States or Canada, there is
the possibility that:
– Unleaded fuel may not be available,
– Unleaded fuel may have a considerably lower
octane rating. Excessive engine knock and seri-
ous damage to both engine and catalytic con-
verters could result,
– Service may be inadequate due to lack of proper
service facilities, tools or diagnostic equipment,
– Replacement parts may not be available or very
difficult to get.
– The authorized Porsche dealer may not be able to
carry out all repair work.
– Technical adjustments need to be made to the
vehicle,
– Some countries require additional tools and spe-
cial spare parts to be carried in your vehicle,
make enquiries before driving abroad.
Porsche cannot be responsible for the mechanical
damage that could result because of inadequate
fuel, service or parts availability.
If you purchased your Porsche abroad and want to
bring it back home, be sure to find out about ship-
ping and forwarding requirements, as well as current
import and customs regulations.
