Default Digital Owners Manual?

Is it correct the 992 does not come with a separate PCM manual as my 2016 Macan did? I see the Owner's Manual mentions a Digital Owner's Manual, but assume that's the one you can access electronically via the PCM? Thanks in advance for your help.

Download the “Good to Know” app from Porsche in the App Store. It is the full owner’s manual in searchable electronic form.

Thanks, yes I did receive the printed OM, but was wondering if the dealer neglected to give me a separate printed OM for the PCM like with my Macan.

Agree on that ! I checked at Suncoast and couldnt find it - at least I know it exists from your pic, will have to talk to the dealer. Probably a protected item. I like having them for all the little things to know - like torque specs for wheel lugs. I also like to get the parts manual if available as those usually have great pics of how things are put together and I can tell exactly the part I may be interested in. Of course if someone only keeps cars for single number of years before they trade or sell, it would likely be a waste

Oddly, a paper "Porsche Connect" manual was not included with the manuals that came with my 992. In any case, that manual is not very helpful. Better info and advice can be found on this forum.

Where does one get a digital owners manual? I've got a CGTS on order and have exhausted the Good To Know app.
