Warning!
Fuel is highly flammable and harmful to
health.
f
Fire, naked flame and smoking are prohibited
when handling fuel.
f
Avoid contact with skin or clothing.
f
Do not inhale fuel vapours.
To avoid permanent damage to the functionality of
the catalytic converters and oxygen sensors, use
only unleaded fuel.
The engine is designed to provide optimum
performance and fuel consumption if
unleaded
premium fuel with 98 RON/88 MON
is used.
If unleaded premium fuels with octane numbers of
at least 95 RON/85 MON
are used, the
engine's knock control automatically adapts the
ignition timing.
f
Never drive the tank dry.
Note on operation
Information on the fuel quality can normally be
found on the pump.
If this should not be the case, ask a petrol station
attendant.
If the recommended fuel is not available,
you can also use unleaded regular fuel
(91 RON/82.5 MON) in an emergency.
However, this could reduce performance and
increase fuel consumption.
f
Avoiding driving at full throttle.
In some countries the available fuel quality may
not meet requirements and can result in coking
around the inlet valve.
In this case a Porsche partner can mix the fuel
with the additive sold and recommended by
Porsche.
Porsche part number 000 043 206 89.
f
Observe the instructions and mixture ratios
stated on the container.
1. Stop the engine and switch off the ignition.
2. Open the filler flap by
pressing on the rear part of the filler flap
(
arrow
