Intensive windshield washer
system reservoir
(where applicable)
The reservoir is located in the engine com-
partment in front of the radiator.
To avoid paint damage, we recommend the
exclusive use of a "special silicone re-
mover" cleaning agent. Clear water and
anti-freeze will not be sufficient.
Your Porsche dealer can advise you which
product to use.
(Also refer-to "Filling capacities" and "Cool-
ing system mixing ratios".)
Power steering fluid reservoir
The reservoir is located in the engine com-
partment on the left side.
To check fluid level...
1 -remove cap from reservoir
2 - w i t h engine running at operating tem-
perature, the fluid level should meet the
mark on the reservoir. If necessary, top
up with ATF Dexron D.
3 -reinstall cap and make sure that sealing
ring is seated correctly.
If the power steering system fails be-
cause the engine has stalled, or the car is
being towed, the vehicle can still be
steered. However, much greater effort is
needed, especially at low speeds and in
sharp turns.
Changing air cleaner filter element
A dirty air cleaner not only reduces engine
performance, but can lead to premature
engine wear. The filter element must be re-
placed at the intervals listed in your Main-
tenance Schedule. If driving is mostly done
in areas where the air is very dusty, the air
cleaner should be checked and cleaned
frequently - perhaps daily.
1 - Detach air intake hoses from air cleaner
housing. Make sure that each hose stays
connected to the toothed belt covers.
2 - Loosen rubber fasteners and remove top
of filter housing together with filter element.
3 -Clean filter housing with lint-free rag and
install new filter element.
4 - Reattach air intake hoses to air cleaner
housing.
