Taycan Secret Tips and Functions

It only shows the hamburger when you're in park, can't do it while in motion.

Good thought! I am not sure I was in park when I tried to find it. Thanks!

Ok, I must be dumb, but I can't find the "tab" to get this to work. Can anyone enlighten me?

Put the car in Park. All covered in the Porsche Good To Know App / Owners Manual.

Can somebody please post a picture where I can find the inflator?
Thanks a bunch!

This was indeed the solution! Thanks!

I also was searching for mine today -- can't find it. I also read the manual, and it says the equipment SHOULD be in the car. However as someone pointed out earlier it depends on the criteria of your world market.

In Canada (strangely) we do not get the Tire Inflator or the First Aid Kit. But the rest of the tools are present. As a bonus (I think) the remote fob window control is standard for Canada.

I honestly do wish I had the 12V inflator though. My tire pressure needs a small adjustment and I do not have a professional-type inflator in my garage.

What triggers it?

#1 The person MUST have the key fob on their person (it will not work without key)
#2 You MUST be very close to the vehicle (less than 30cm)
#3 You gently place your hand in a circle motion near the front badge -- pop!

It is a very slim rectangular black plastic housed box in the compartment to the right of the frunk as you face it. It's in the upper left corner of that tool compartment. Pop the cover off the top of the tool compartment. Grasp the pump and slide it up and out (I have to use two fingers of one hand on the aft end and two fingers of the other hand on the forward end, because my hand won't fit along the left side of it). The air output tubing and power wire are tucked into the side of it.

It is tiny, but mighty.

I found mine earlier today. But I wasn't sure about a couple of the other items. What is the black rectangular thing located next to the inflator? And on the left side compartment, what is the bottle with liquid in it?

Canadian model here. Mine came with it. No safety kit, but inflator included with puncture repair kit.
Do other markets come with different tools?

It may have been an option? From this thread:

Check your original order form to see if optional or not

Check the configurator to see what it is today.

Optional in UK - should be standard at this price of course.

What is the black rectangular thing located next to the inflator?

That little rectangular, black box contains a wrench and a couple of other tools. You have to pull it apart from the middle to open it as indicated by the arrows on the box.

Pull it apart and it is a tool kit.
