Default Digital Owners Manual

Hey all I have a question. So I have a 2023 C4 GTS and I've been going through the Owners Manual. In the Index for certain items it says info available only digitally; and at the bottom of page it says, "Further information can be found in the digital manual (see details at beginning of this booklet.)" where all there is is a QR Code to scan and download the My Porsche App, which I already had.


So in the My Porsche App I have my Panamera and the 911. The Owners Manual is available to download for the Panamera, but NOT the 911. Does anyone else have this problem? Also, I have a Samsung Galaxy 20 phone if that matters. Please help. Thank you all.​​​​​​​

The Porsche Good To Know app (different from your My Porsche app) is the digital owner's manual: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/porsch...ow/id578575559

Digital PDF owner manuals were available for 2021 and earlier 992s: https://rennlist.com/forums/992/1179...l#post18288261. AFAIK for 2022 and later 992s, only the Good To Know app is available.

I'll look into what you posted. Thank you. My SA just texted me that the digital OM for the 2023 911s isn't out yet.....seems weird to me.

FYI all, I just downloaded this app and when you try to pull up the ‘22 992 manual, it tells you to go download the MyPorsche app instead.

​​​​​​​I'm 99% sure it's in the PCM (need to look to be certain) and that helps, but I don't want to be sitting in the car with it running just to read up on some stuff, or do it with the engine off and with my luck kill the battery....ugh

you are 100% correct. the manual of the 2021 or 2022 must be practically the same with a few difference details.

I also just picked up my new 911 and am also struggling with learning the car. HOWEVER, I highly recommend the youtube video-"2023 Porsche 911 Carrera Setup Tutorial"- use that title as a search to find.

The tutorial is 1 hour long and goes through everything your sales agent would/should have shown you. The best part is it goes through every menu item in the main screen and shows and explains all the submenus. A must see for all new owners.

Hey all I just went into the My Porsche App and the digital Owners Manual is there now. Makes me happy. Yes I know I'm a nerd. Thanks to everyone who helped out. Much appreciated.
