California Proposition 65 Warning
Warning!
Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and
certain vehicle components contain or emit chemi-
cals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive
harm.
In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and
certain products of component wear contain or
emit chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other reproduc-
tive harm.
Hot Exhaust Pipes
Warning!
Risk of burn injury when standing near or
coming into contact with the exhaust pipe.
The exhaust pipe is hot when the vehicle is running
and remains hot for some time after the vehicle is
turned off.
f
To prevent injury, make a point of noting where
your vehicle’s exhaust pipe is, avoid placing
your legs near the exhaust pipe when loading
and unloading cargo in the rear, and closely
supervise children around the vehicle during
time when the exhaust pipe could be hot.
A hot exhaust pipe can cause serious burns.
Portable Fuel Containers
Danger!
Portable fuel containers may leak, whether
they are full or partially empty. Fuel leaking
from a portable container carried in your
vehicle could, in case of an accident, cause
a fire or explosion, resulting in serious
personal injury or death.
f
Never carry additional fuel in portable contai-
ners in your vehicle.
Ground Clearance
Caution!
Risk of damage. The vehicle may touch the
ground as a result of reduced ground clear-
ance.
f
Drive carefully and slowly on steep slopes
(e. g. parking lots, curbs, uneven roads, lifting
platforms etc.).
f
Avoid steep ramps.
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB)
f
Please see the chapter “BRAKES” on
Page 172.
The high-performance brake system is designed
for optimal braking effect at all speeds and
temperatures.
Certain speeds, braking forces and ambient condi-
tions (such as temperature and humidity) therefore
might cause brake noises.
Wear on the different components and braking
system, such as brake pads and brake discs,
depends to a great extent on the individual driving
style and the conditions of use and therefore
cannot be expressed in actual miles on the road.
The values communicated by Porsche are based
on normal operation adapted to traffic. Wear
increases considerably when the vehicle is driven
on race tracks or through an aggressive driving
style.
f
Please consult an authorized Porsche dealer
about the current guidelines in effect before
such use of your vehicle.
