Door, lid and window seals
Wash dirt (e.g. abrasion, dust, road salts) from
all seals regularly using warm soapy water.
Do not use any chemical cleaning agents or
solvents.
When there i s a frost hazard, the outer door seals
and the front and rear lid seals can be protected
against freezing into place by a suitable care
product.
In order to prevent damage to th e ant i-friction
coating, the inner door seals must not be
treated with care produc t s.
Stainless steel exhaust tailpipes
Stainless steel exhaust tailpipes can discolor due
to soiling, strong heat, and combustion residues.
The original polish can be achieved again using
commercially available metal polishing paste or
metal polish.
Headl ights, lights, interior and exterior
plasti cparts, adhesive lm s
Use only clean water and a little dishwashing
detergent to clean light lenses, plastic
headlight lenses, plastic part s and surfaces.

a soft, lint-free clo th. Gently wipe the surface
without applying too much pressure. The

for cleaning plastic surfaces. Follow the
cleaning instructions on the container. Never
use other chemical cleaners or solvents.

Light alloy wheels
Please observe the chapter ”WASHING” on
page 228.
Warning!
Danger of accident resulting in serious
personal inju ry or death if cleaning agents
(e.g. wheel cleaning agents) come into
contact with the brake discs. The resulting
lm on the brake discs can impair braking
performan ce.
Make sure that no cleaning agent comes into
conta ct with the brake discs.
If cleaning agent has come into contact with
the brake discs, thoroughly clean the brake
discs with a strong jet of water.
Paying attention to any road users behind you,
dry the brake discs by applying the brakes at
short intervals.
Pitting may occur if metallic particles which cause
contac t corrosion (e.g. brass or copper in brake
dust) are allowed to remain on the aluminum for too
long.
If possible, wash the wheels with a sponge or
wash brush about every two weeks. In areas
where salt is spread on winter roads or there
is a lot of airborne industrial dust, it is best to
clean the wheels weekly. The Porsche Light
Alloy Wheel Cleaner (ph-value 9.5) can be
used for this purpose. If the ph-value of
the detergent is incorrect, the protective
coating on the wheels will be destroyed.
Polishes which dissolve oxides, such as those
frequently used for other metals, or abrasive
tools or agents are unsuitable beca use they
break down the oxide lm of the protective
coatin g and will cause discoloration of the
wheel.
Every three months, after cleaning, coat the
wheels with a car wax or non-corrosive grease
(vaseli ne).Using a clean cloth thoroughly rub
the grease into the surface.
