If a cradle is used to mount the mobile phone, the field strength in the passenger compartment can be reduced because the phone can be connected to the external aerial (feature depends on how specific mobile phones connect to the cradle). Please consult an accessories supplier for information about the availability of a cradle for your mobile phone. The use of the telephone module for CDR Plus or PCM via Bluetooth ® SAP connection or with inserted SIM card prevents exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the car’s external aerial is ever used. For information on compatible mobile phones, please visit www.porsche.com or contact your Porsche Centre. 7) For receiving digital TV signals (DVB-T and MPEG-2 encoded signals) where available. 8) Use of Aha Radio services with the optional telephone module requires activation of HFP mode in PCM. 1)

Weight is calculated in accordance with the relevant EC Directives and is valid for vehicles with standard specification only. Optional equipment increases this figure. The figure given includes 68 kg for the driver and 7 kg for luggage. 2) Data determined in the NEDC (New European Driving Cycle) in accordance with the Euro 5 (715/2007/EC, 692/2008/EC, 566/2011/EC and ECE-R 101) measurement method. The figures do not refer to an individual vehicle nor do they constitute part of the offer. They are intended solely as a means of comparing different types of vehicle. Fuel consumption calculated for vehicles with standard specification only. Actual consumption and performance may vary with items of optional equipment. A vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions depend not only on its efficient use of fuel but also on driving style and other non-technical factors. The latest Porsche models with petrol engines are designed to operate on fuels with an ethanol content of up to 10 %.
