WM 2X00IN Basic Information On The Lightweight Battery (Lithium-Ion Battery) (Gt3, Gt2, Gt3 RS, Gt2 RS, Gt3 RS 4.0): Information: Limitations
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2013 Porsche 911, 2012 Porsche 911, 2011 Porsche 911, 2010 Porsche 911, and 2009 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Due to the lithium-ion technology, there are limitations on the starting behaviour of the battery at very low and very high outside temperatures:
- - The lead battery must be re-installed in order to drive the vehicle at temperatures below 0°C (32°F).
- - Driving at ambient temperatures above 40°C (104°F) with additional heat coming from the sun's rays can result in reduced battery performance in the long term and cause premature ageing of the battery cells.
