e Make sure that no persons or animals are within
the range of movement when moving these ve-
hicle components.
Supervising children's behaviour
Children often cannot judge dangers correctly and
may behave inappropriately in dangerous situations.
Children can accidentally trigger automatic settings
(e.g. seat adjustment) and suffer injury. Children
may not be able to exit the vehicle in emergency
situations e.g. overheated passenger compartment.
This can be life-threatening, especially for small
children.
e Keep children away from live or hot parts, e.g. the
exhaust tailpipe.
e Keep toxic materials, e.g. tyre sealing compound,
engine oil, out of the reach of children.
e Do not leave children in the vehicle unattended.
Using a child restraint system safely
Child restraint systems can only work if they are
correctly installed.
e Only use child restraint systems that are ap-
proved for your Porsche.
e Before you use a child restraint system: Read and
follow the child restraint system manufacturer's
instructions as well as this manual.
> Please refer to chapter "Child Restraint Sys-
tems (Child Seats)" on page 73.
Safe and competent driving: al-
ways make the right decision
Your Porsche is an all-rounder. From Launch Control
to the emergency braking function – once you let it
loose, everything is possible. However, at the end of
the day, you are responsible for keeping your power
house under control.
Same Driving Pleasure, More Safety
Avoid distraction
If you use the PCM or other components in the ve-
hicle while driving, you are distracted from the traffic
and may not react in time to dangerous situations.
For your safety, some functions are only available
when the vehicle is stationary.
e Never adjust the mirror, seat or steering wheel
while driving. The seat or steering wheel may
move unexpectedly far. You may lose control of
the vehicle. Adjust the mirror, seat and steering
wheel position before driving.
e Only use the multi-function steering wheel, in-
fotainment system, etc. while driving if the traf-
fic situation permits. In case of doubt, stop the
vehicle when it is safe to do so.
e Do not use mobile phones or other mobile devi-
ces while driving.
e Always use hands-free equipment.
e Do not reach through the steering wheel spokes
while driving. Otherwise, you may not be able to
react in time to dangerous situations.
