Car Telephone and<br />
Aftermarket Alarms<br />
Important legal and safety information<br />
regarding the use of cellular telephones<br />
Some states may prohibit the use of cellular telephones<br />
while driving a vehicle. Check the laws and<br />
regulations on the use of cellular telephones in the<br />
areas where you drive.<br />
Danger!<br />
Risk of an accident.<br />
Severe personal injury or death can result in<br />
the event of an accident.<br />
Looking away from the road or turning your<br />
attention away from your driving can cause<br />
an accident and serious or fatal injury.<br />
When using your cellular telephone, you should always:<br />
f Give full attention to your driving - pull off the<br />
road and park before making or answering a<br />
call if traffic conditions so require; and<br />
f Keep both hands on the steering wheel - use<br />
hands-free operation (if available) - pull off the<br />
road and park before using a hand-held telephone.<br />
It is essential to observe the telephone<br />
manufacturer's instructions before operating<br />
the telephone.<br />
Any portable telephone or radio transmitter which<br />
is used in a Porsche must be properly installed in<br />
accordance with the technical requirements of<br />
Porsche.<br />
The transmission power must not exceed<br />
10 W.<br />
The devices must possess a type approval for<br />
your vehicle and have an “e” symbol.<br />
If you should require equipment with transmission<br />
power values greater than 10 W, please consult<br />
your authorized Porsche dealer for this purpose.<br />
The dealer is familiar with the technical requirements<br />
for installing devices of this kind.<br />
The antennas for all radios and telephones with a<br />
transmitting antenna must be externally mounted.<br />
The improper installation of radios or telephones<br />
or use of a radio or telephone with a transmitting<br />
antenna inside the car may cause the warning<br />
lights to come on.<br />
Improper installation of such equipment can create<br />
a discharged battery or excessive current<br />
draw from added equipment.<br />
If aftermarket systems are installed by non-dealership<br />
technicians or outside the selling dealer,<br />
problems may result. Installation of aftermarket<br />
equipment is not covered under the New Car Warranty.<br />
f Consult your authorized Porsche dealer about<br />
the installation of non Porsche approved equipment.<br />
Reception quality<br />
The reception quality of your car telephone will<br />
change constantly when you are driving. Interference<br />
caused by buildings, landscape and weather<br />
is unavoidable. It may become particularly difficult<br />
to hear when using the hands-free function due to<br />
external noise such as engine and wind noise.<br />
Automatic car-wash<br />
f Unscrew external antennas before using an automatic<br />
car-wash.<br />
