Removing the fire extinguisher

the PRESS button on the fire extinguisher holder
with the other hand.
For correct and safe handling of the fire extinguisher,
refer to the following points:

tinguisher. If the fire extinguisher is used after
the inspection interval has elapsed, functionality
is no longer guaranteed.
e Observe the operating instructions on the fire
extinguisher.
e Observe the safety instructions on the leaflet
supplied by the fire extinguisher manufacturer on
the extinguisher handle.
e Have the fire extinguisher checked by an au-
thorized Porsche dealer every one or two years.

Hot vehicle parts
Vehicle parts in the chassis area and adjacent com-
ponents get very hot while driving.
Fans can come on automatically at any time.
e Park the vehicle and let it cool down if possible.
e Keep body parts, clothes, long hair and jewelry
away from all moving parts, such as fans.
e Take care when working near hot vehicle parts.
e Wear protective gloves that protect against hot
parts.
Protective equipment must be worn to perform cer-
tain types of work on the vehicle, e.g. gloves to pre-
vent cuts.
e Always have work performed on the vehicle by an
authorized Porsche dealer. Porsche recommends
an authorized Porsche dealer, as they have
trained technicians and the necessary parts and
tools.
