Towing
Certain state statutes and local ordinances prohib-
it towing with a chain, rope or even a tow bar. In
addition, damage to your vehicle may result from
improper procedures. Consult your authorized
Porsche dealer for details.
When the turn signal light is set with the ignition on
and the emergency warning lights active, only the
turn signal light on the corresponding side of the
vehicle will light up. After the turn signal light is re-
set, the emergency warning lights will be switched
on again.
Vehicle towing
Flat bed towing is the preferred type of towing to
be used on Porsche vehicles. Under certain cir-
cumstances, wheel lifts may be used when the ve-
hicle will not roll.
The vehicle must be towed with all four
wheels off the ground, otherwise damage to
the vehicle may result.
Towing hook
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the spare-
wheel well contains one or two towing hooks.
Caution!
Risk of damage to the vehicle.
f Use the towing hook only for an emergency to
remove the vehicle off the road. The towing
hook is to be used only to pull the vehicle onto
the flat bed, tractor or towing aparatus if the
vehicle will roll freely. Under no circumstances
is the vehicle to be secured using the towing
hook.
f Never use the towing hook to tow this or any
other vehicle.
