Car Care

Information

of your vehicle and can be a prerequisite for making
claims under the vehicle warranty. Porsche recom-
mends car care products from Porsche Tequipment.
e Please read the application instructions on the
packaging of the car care product.
e Store car care products out of the reach of
children.
e Dispose of car care products in the correct
manner.
To ensure that the condition of the vehicle is checked
professionally and the warranty is retained for the full
period: Contact an authorized Porsche dealer. They
will create a status report and also certify the
standard of care of the vehicle.
Water Film on Brake
WARNING
Disks
After washing the vehicle, the braking effect may be
delayed and increased pressure may be required.
e Check the brakes after washing the vehicle.
e Allow a greater braking distance from the vehicle
in front and "brake" the brakes dry at intervals.
Ensure that this does not affect the traffic behind.
Chemical Cleaners
WARNING
Cleaning agents may be hazardous to your health.
Most chemical cleaners are concentrates which
require dilution. High concentrations might cause
problems ranging from irritation to serious injury.
e Keep cleaning agents out of reach from children.
e Observe all caution labels.
e Always read directions on the container before
using any product. These directions may contain
information necessary to avoid personal injury.
e Do not use fuel, kerosene, naphtha, nail polish
remover or other volatile cleaning fluids. They
may be toxic, flammable or hazardous in other
ways. Only use spot removing fluids in a well
vented area.
e Do not clean the underside of chassis, fenders,
wheel covers, etc., without protecting your hands
and arms as you may cut yourself on sharp-edged
metal parts.
