Porsche Communication<br />
Management (PCM)<br />
f Refer to the separate operating instructions<br />
before putting the PCM into operation.<br />
f Please see the chapter “LOAD SWITCH-OFF<br />
AFTER 2 HOURS OR 7 DAYS” on Page 236.<br />
Warning!<br />
There is a danger of accident if you set or<br />
operate the on-board computer, radio, navigation<br />
system, telephone or other equipment<br />
when driving.<br />
This could distract you from the traffic and<br />
cause you to lose control of the vehicle resulting<br />
in serious personal injury or death.<br />
f Operate the components while driving only if<br />
the traffic situation allows you to do so safely.<br />
f Carry out any complicated operating or setting<br />
procedures only with the vehicle stationary.<br />
The reception conditions for the radio module<br />
integrated in the PCM change continuously as you<br />
drive. Interference from buildings, terrain and the<br />
weather is unavoidable.<br />
FM stereo reception is particularly susceptible to<br />
varying reception conditions.<br />
Electronic accessories should only be retrofitted<br />
by your authorized Porsche dealer.<br />
Accessories which have not been tested and<br />
approved by Porsche may impair radio function<br />
and reception.<br />
Navigation<br />
When put into operation for the first time, a<br />
distance of approx. 30 miles (50 km) must be<br />
driven in order for the navigation system to<br />
complete the process of fine calibration.<br />
The same applies when the tires are changed (e.g.<br />
summer/snow tires) or new tires fitted.<br />
Full location accuracy is not yet achieved during<br />
the fine-calibration process.<br />
If the vehicle has been transported (e.g. ferry, car<br />
train), the system may take a few minutes to determine<br />
the current location after it has been<br />
switched on.<br />
Serious tire slip (e.g. spinning wheels on snow)<br />
may result in temporarily inaccurate navigation.<br />
When the battery has been disconnected, it may<br />
take up to 15 minutes before the navigation<br />
system is operational again.<br />
Car Audio Operation/Tips<br />
For radio operation see your radio manual<br />
which is included with your on-board literature.<br />
f Please see the chapter “LOAD SWITCH-OFF AF-<br />
TER 2 HOURS OR 7 DAYS” on Page 236.<br />
FM reception<br />
A vehicle is not an ideal place to listen to a radio.<br />
Because the vehicle moves, reception conditions<br />
are constantly changing.<br />
Buildings, terrain, signal distance and noise from<br />
other vehicles are all working against good reception.<br />
Some conditions affecting FM may appear to be<br />
problems when they are not.<br />
The following characteristics are completely normal<br />
for a given reception area, and they do not indicate<br />
any problem with the radio itself.<br />
Note<br />
Electronic accessories should only be installed by<br />
your authorized Porsche dealer.<br />
Equipment which has not been tested and approved<br />
by Porsche may impair radio reception.<br />
