Range 1 = ignitions at the rev limiter, range 2 = above rev limiter.

3 ignitions per revolution, so you have 4,407 revolutions at the rev limiter (about 41 seconds with the last occurrence at 2812.4 operating hours).

106 revolutions above rev limiter (above red line), so about 1 second with the last occurrence being at 1936.6 operating hours.

The car has 2827.2 total hours of operation.

Thanks pw
I gather this is how Porsche sees if the car has been abused (according to some posts I have read).
So my engine had been red-lined a total of 41 seconds in it's lifetime, but could have been 82 times, for example at 1/2 second each time?
