Maintenance Schedule - Porsche WTY 2010 Warranty & Maintenance Manual

• The maintenance has been done incorrectly.
• A part that the Maintenance Schedule requires to be checked at stated
intervals is not checked, and not checking it causes the failure of an
emission controls part.
However, claims for repair or adjustment necessary solely because of
defects in material or workmanship will not be denied because the car or
engine was not properly maintained or used.
Note: Receipts for maintenance should remain with the car if it is sold.
Your Responsibility for Normal Vehicle Use
Your Owner's Manual (which includes specific recommendations against
using your car in certain ways) was written with the assumption that you
will use your car only in ways for which it was designed:
• To carry passengers and cargo within specified load limits. (The load
limits are specified on labels located in different places depending on
your model Porsche. Your Owner's Manual gives the locations.)
• To be driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal speed limits.
Porsche Guidelines specify reasonable mileage to be at least
15 miles / 24 kilometers per day or 6000 miles / 9600 kilometers
per rolling 12 months.
• If you drive less than the above-mentioned limits, or in the event of
prolonged storage, contact your local authorized Porsche dealer
for instructions.
(Note: A battery maintainer is available at your local authorized
Porsche dealer. It must be used to maintain your vehicle's battery
state of charge if your vehicle will not be used for several days.)
• To be properly maintained according to the Maintenance Schedule
in the Maintenance Booklet and Car Care Instructions in your
Owner's Manual. You must keep the receipts as proof of maintenance.
• To be run on unleaded gasoline with the recommended octane rating as
specified in the Owner's Manual. Note: Some Canadian gasolines contain
an octane enhancing additive called methylcyclopentadienyl (MMT).
If such fuels are used in your Porsche automobile, your emission control
system performance may be negatively affected. The malfunction indicator
light ("Check Engine") on your instrument panel may illuminate. If repairs
are required due to the use of fuels containing MMT, Porsche reserves
the right to deny coverage of those repairs under warranty.
You are responsible for presenting your Porsche automobile to a Porsche
dealer as soon as a problem exists. Failure to do so could result in conse-
quential damage that may not be covered by your limited factory warranty.
Your Responsibility for Using Appropriate Replacement Parts
PCL recommends only the use of parts supplied by PCL or equivalent
parts which are certified by the manufacturer to meet original equipment
standards. The use of uncertified replacement parts not equivalent in
quality or design to parts supplied by PCL may impair the effectiveness of
your car's emission system. If an uncertified replacement part is used in
the maintenance or repair of your car, and it is defective or not equivalent
to the original part from an emissions standpoint, your claim may be
denied. If, however, the uncertified part is not related to the reason your
car fails to meet the standards, your claim will not be denied.
