If your car catches on fire for any reason, call
the fire department. Do not endanger your life
by attempting to put out the fire.
Stopping engine
Turn key back to position 3.
Do not stop engine immediately after hard
or extended driving. Keep engine running
at increased idle for about two minutes to
prevent excessive heat build-up before turning
off engine.
To avoid battery run-down, always remove the
ignition key from the ignition lock.
Make sure that when you leave the car, even
briefly, you have withdrawn the ignition key.
Engage the steering lock by moving the
steering wheel to the left or right. Turn
the steering wheel to the locking position
before you switch off the engine so that you
don't have to exert yourself when locking or
unlocking the steering.
Warning!
Danger of injury. Hot engine compartment
components can burn skin on contact.
Before working on any part in the engine
compartment, turn the engine off and let it
cool down sufficiently.
Engine-compartment blower, radiator fan
The radiator and radiator fans are in the front of the
car. The engine-compartment blower is mounted in
the engine compartment.
Warning!
Risk of injury. After the engine is switched
off, the engine-compartment temperatures
is monitored for approx. 30 minutes. During
this period, and depending on temperature,
the engine-compartment blower may contin-
ue to run or start to run.
Carry out work in these areas only with the
engine off and exercise extreme caution.
Warning!
Risk of injury. The radiator fans in the front
end of the car may be operating or unex-
pectedly start operating when the engine is
switched on.
Carry out work in these areas only with the
engine switched off.
Automatic garage door
The ignition system in your Porsche may interfere
with your electronically operated garage door.
To check this, drive your Porsche close to the
garage door. Make sure not to interfere with
the operating range of the door.
Run the engine at different speeds.
If the garage door opens or closes without you
operating the garage door unit in your car, contact
the dealer who installed the automatic garage door
to have the frequency and/or coding of the garage
door signal changed or modified.
