Towing a four-wheel drive vehicle on one axle
We urge that wherever possible, a car transporter
or trailer be used to transport a Cayenne vehicle
that cannot move under its own power. This is the
safest way to transport a down vehicle.
For those instances where a car transporter or
trailer is not available, the vehicle may be towed
on all four axles only, provided the following
conditions are strictly met. Failure to meet these
conditions will result in serious and expensive
damage to the Tiptronic S transmission.
If the vehicle's transmission or shifter is already
damaged, serious damage will result if the vehicle
is not towed with all four wheels off the ground.
Porsche cannot be held responsible for damage
incurred in cases where a vehicle has been
transported on one or both of its axles.
f The vehicle must have all four wheels on the
ground when being towed or it must be
transported on a car transporter.
It is normally not permissible to raise one axle,
irrespective of whether it is the front or
rear axle.
If circumstances dictate that the vehicle must
be towed in this manner, the drive shaft
(cardan shaft) of the rolling axle must be
removed.
f Put the gearshift lever in Neutral or move
the Tiptronic selector lever to position N.
The Tiptronic selector lever can no longer be
operated in the event of an electrical fault.
Locking of the Tiptronic selector lever in
position P can be overridden manually.
Please see the chapter “SELECTOR LEVER
EMERGENCY OPERATION” on page 184.
f Switch ignition off.
The ignition key must remain in the ignition lock
so that the steering wheel lock does not
engage.
The control unit must be removed from the
ignition lock and the ignition key inserted in
vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive:
Please see the chapter “EMERGENCY
OPERATION – UNLOCKING THE IGNITION KEY”
on page 149.
f Make sure that the vehicle is adequately
illuminated.
f Do not exceed a maximum speed of 30 mph
(50 km/h).
Maximum towing distance 30 miles (50 km).
If towing distances are greater, the vehicle
must be transported with a car transporter or
on a trailer.
Pulling out a vehicle stuck in snow,

its own tracks.
