Note:

On vehicles which are driven less than 9,000 miles yearly, a yearly maintenance must be performed. A scheduled maintenance with oil-filter change must be performed after 2 years at the latest, unless the mileage for a scheduled major maintenance is reached earlier.

If the yearly mileage is more than 9,000 miles, it is recommended to perform the maintenance at the scheduled mileage intervals.

Proper care and maintenance will preserve the value of your Porsche and safeguard its functional capability. This will also protect your right to make warrantly claims.

The terms "inspect" and "check" include all associated work such as checking the condition, adjustments, readjustments, corrections and replenishment.

They do not include the repair, replacement or overhaul of components or assemblies.

The maintenance points are valid for all vehicle types of the model line in question.
