NOTICE
Covering headlights that are switched on
^ Danger of heating and chafing at the headlights
--> Do not cover headlights, e.g. with wing protector or film.
--> Switch off ignition.
If a protective cover is placed on the fender area of a vehicle, the following points must be observed:
--> The main headlight switch must generally be set to o - "Light is switched off".
--> When the switch is set to "AUTO", the driving lights are switched on automatically, depending on the ambient brightness.
This means that the headlights can come on automatically, e.g. if a protective cover without a gauze section is used (in the headlight area), and can
be damaged as a result of the build-up of heat under the protective cover.
--> Switch off ignition.
Particularly for vehicles with Xenon lighting system (I-no. I601):
--> Use protective cover with integrated gauze material (--> Figure 1) in the headlight area.
Tools:
Protective vehicle cover for the 991 WE 1470 (VAS 6757), also for Boxster (981) and 9x7 vehicles,
Protective cover for the Cayenne WE 1417 --> only use covers from manufacturer "Datex",
