Preliminary Work

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2018 Porsche Cayenne, 2017 Porsche Cayenne, 2016 Porsche Cayenne, 2015 Porsche Cayenne, and 2014 Porsche Cayenne. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: Vehicle can fall down
  • Risk of squashing or crushing
  • Risk of damage to the vehicle

→ Do not place any solid objects under the raised vehicle.

→ Ensure that the lifting platform is prevented from lowering.

→ Remove solid objects before lowering the vehicle.

→ Raise the vehicle only at the jacking points provided.

→ The outer jacking points should be used primarily.

When driving onto the lifting platform, bear in mind the work that needs to be carried out. In other words: if work has to be carried out in the front footwell, the vehicle should be positioned in such a way that the front doors can be opened far enough.

If the vehicle is a Cayenne with air suspension/levelling system, also observe the following instructions:

Switch off the levelling system manually (see Switching Off The Levelling System ).

Information 

If the vehicle was raised on the lifting platform when the levelling system was switched on, it will automatically detect levelling platform mode and switch off the levelling system.

It is no longer possible to switch the levelling system on manually in lifting platform mode.

It will not be possible to carry out level adjustment, the component test or the drive link test.
