Porsche PCM3 User Manual

Dear Owner,
in this operating manual you will learn about the
various functions of the PCM (Porsche
Communication Management) and the control
options. Get acquainted with the operation of your
PCM while the vehicle is at rest. In order to take
advantage of its expanded scope of features, your
full concentration is required during this learning
process. In addition, attempting to drive while
learning these functions will draw your attention
away from the road, thus putting yourself and
others at risk of an accident.
On-board literature
Keep the on-board literature in the vehicle at all
times and if you ever come to sell your vehicle,
please hand it over to the new owner.
Suggestions
Do you have any questions, suggestions, or ideas
about your vehicle or the on-board literature?
Please write to us:
