or accident. Occupants may be endangered or
injured.
Information
For example, unsecured objects can be thrown
forward at up to 50 times their weight in the event of
a rear-end collision at 30 mph (50 km/h).
A 1.5-quart bottle of water, for example, is thrown
through the passenger compartment with a force of
up to 165 lbs. (75 kg).
e As a rule, transport only secured objects in the
vehicle.
e Always stow loads securely, e.g. in the luggage
compartment.
e Place small objects in the storage compartments
and close all storage compartments. Objects
must not protrude out of the storage compart-
ments.
e Never place objects on top of the dashboard.
e Do not transport heavy objects in open storage
compartments.
e Also provide your passengers with all information
regarding safety measures.
For correctly loading your Porsche and stowing
items:
f Please see chapter „Stowing loads" on page 125.
Preventing crushing hazards
If persons or animals are within the range of
movement of certain vehicle components, there is a
risk of body parts being trapped or crushed. These
components include:
– Adjustable front seats
– Doors
– Windows
– Flaps and lids
– Storage compartment lids
e Make sure that no persons or animals are within
the range of movement when moving these
vehicle components.
Take account of children's behavior
Children often cannot judge dangers correctly and
may behave inappropriately in dangerous situations.
Children can accidentally trigger automatic settings
(e.g. seat adjustment) and thus injure themselves.
Children may not be able to exit the vehicle in
emergency situations e.g. overheated passenger
compartment. This is dangerous to life, especially for
young children.
e Keep children away from live or hot parts, e.g. the
exhaust tailpipe.
e Keep toxic materials, e.g. tire sealing compound,
engine oil, out of the reach of children.
e Do not leave children in the vehicle unattended.

Manual.
f Please see chapter „Child Restraint Systems
(Child Seats)" on page 69.
