General in formation regarding the keys
Please observe the chapter ”ALARM SYSTEM,
PASSENGER COMPARTMENT MONITORING”
on page 32.
Please observe the chapter ”CENTRAL
LOCKING IN CARS WITH ALARM SYSTEM”
on page 28.
Two main keys and one spare key are supplied with
your Porsche. These keys operate all the locks on
your vehicle.
Be careful wi th your car keys: do not part with
them except under e xceptional circumstanc-
es.
To avoid battery run-down , always remove the
ignition key from the ignition lock.
Replacement keys
Order of r eplacemen t keys
Replacement car keys can be obtained only from
your authorized Porsche dealer, and this can
sometimes be very time-consuming. You should
therefore always keep the spare ke y on your
person. Keep it in a safe place (e.g. w allet), but
under no circumstances in or on the vehicle.
The key codes of new keys have to be “report ed”
to the car control unit by your authorized Porsche
dealer.
A total of 6 car keys can be reported to the control
unit.
Disabling key codes
If a key is lost, the key codes can be disabled by
an authorized Porsche dealer. All the remaining
car keys are required for this purpose. Disabling
the code ensures that the car can be started only
using authorized keys.
Note
Please note that the other locks can still be
opened with the disabled key.
Immobilizer
There is a transponder (an electronic component)
in the key grip, containing a stored code. When the
ignition is switched on, the ignition lock checks the
code. The immobilizer can be switched off and the
engine started only using an authorized ignition
key.
Switching off the immobilizer
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock.
If the ignition is left on for more than 2 minutes
without the engine being started, the immobilize r is
switche d on again.
If this happens, turn the ignition key to the left
before starti ng the engine. The immobilizer
is switched of f again, and the engine can be
started.
Please observe the chapter ”IGN ITION/START-
ER SWITCH WITH ANTI-THEFT STEERING
LOCK” on page 83.
Switching on the immobilizer
Remove ignition key.
Security wheel bolts
If wheels have to be removed during a repair-
shop visit, do not forget to h and over the sock-
et for the security wheel bolts along with the
car key.
