By using the Precool/Preheat function you can set a preferred interior temperature for your Taycan before you get in it, whatever the time of year.
You can both programme and also switch precooling/preheating on and off using the My Porsche app, as well as in the infotainment system, PCM (Porsche Communication Management).
If you want to control the precool or preheat your car before you enter it – when you’re leaving for a trip in an hour’s time, for example – here’s how to do so using the My Porsche app:
Open the My Porsche app. On the home screen, click the shortcut button with the two arrows and an image of the snowflake (precool/preheat).
You can then set your car's desired seat climate control and temperature and activate the precooling/preheating by tapping the Start precool/heat button. A default time of 60 minutes is set automatically. Precooling/preheating can be turned off using the same method.
You can also set a departure timer which then precools or preheats your car to the preferred temperature. In this instance, the car will regulate the cooling/heating according to the outside temperature.
The precooling/preheating starts no earlier than 50 minutes before the desired departure time and ends no later than 10 minutes after.
You can also control the precooling and preheating from within your car itself via the PCM:
Please note: turning it off will also deactivate any timers. For more details, please refer to the Owner Manual, selecting your Taycan model and typing Air conditioning into the search field.
The timer can be set to start once (single timer) or at regular intervals (recurring timer).
You will need to ensure the following when using precooling/preheating in the Taycan:
