CHECK messages

When the engine is started, CHECKING will appear on the display for about 4 seconds while the SID CHECK functions are being performed.

When a CHECK message is activated while driving, a chime sounds and the message appears in SID. The number of possible CHECK messages varies depending on the car’s specifications.

If more than one CHECK message has been generated, the + symbol will appear to the left of the text on the display. The mes- sages appear in order of priority.

If a new fault occurs whilst another message is being displayed, the message relating to the new one will appear for 10 seconds, after which the display will return to the ear- lier one.

Briefly press the CLR button to acknowl- edge a message from the display. After acknowledgement, the message is dis- played each time the ignition is re-started until remedied.

The following messages may be displayed:

1)This message will be displayed approximately 600 miles (1,000 km) before the next scheduled service is due, or when 365 days have elapsed since the last service. The message should be cleared at the time of that service (see the Saab Warranties & Service Record Booklet).

This message can also be deleted by first briefly pressing the CLR button, then depressing it a second time for at least eight seconds until ”SERVICE” appears on the display and a chime sounds. The message can only be deleted when it is shown on the SID.

*) 9-5 SportCombi: the high-mounted stop light is not included in the autocheck of lights.
