This
electronic warning system monitors the most important functions of your
Porsche for increased safety and reliability of performance. Should a problem arise, the central
warning system will inform you immediately. The
central warning light is located in the top center of the instrument
cluster. The individual warning
lights are divided between the two combination instruments. When
the ignition is turned on, the central warning light and all individual warning
lights will light up for a bulb check. If the engine oil level is too low, the central warning
light will flash. (Lack of
engine oil can, in comparison with all other functions, only be checked with
the engine turned off, and with the vehicle on level ground.) As soon as the engine is started, the
lights should go out. The STOP
LAMP light will go out after the brake pedal has been depressed. The PARK BRAKE light will go out as
soon as the parking brake lever is fully released. The central warning light system
monitors toothed belt tension approx. 3 minutes after the engine has been
started. Should
a problem arise, the central warning light will light up or flash, together
with the respective individual warning light. The
control function of the central warning light system is divided into two
major groups:
Any of these malfunctions reported by the system must be corrected immediately.
Any
group “B” malfunction reported by the system should be corrected as soon as
possible. Reset
button
By
pressing this button, you can turn off the central warning light for group
“B” related problems. The
individual warning light in the respective combination instrument will remain
on as a reminder to have the fault corrected. The
reset button does not apply to group “A” related problems. Both central and individual warning lights will continue
to flash because an immediate remedy of the problem is necessary. With
the ignition key in Pos. “1” or “2” both doors can be locked or unlocked by
pressing the central locking button. See
“Central door locking system”. |
