Instruments and controls
¢ AT OIL TEMPerature
warning light (AT vehi-
cles)
The AT oil temperature warning light
comes on when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position and goes out
after approximately two seconds.
If this light comes on when the engine is
running, it may indicate that the automatic
transmission fluid temperature is too hot.
If the light comes on while driving, it is un-
necessary to stop the vehicle, but avoid
driving up steep grades or in stop and go
traffic.
q Automatic transmission control
system warning
If the light flashes after the engine starts,
it may indicate that the automatic trans-
mission control system is not working
properly. Contact your nearest Saab deal-
er for service immediately.
¢ ABS warning light
The ABS warning light comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion and goes out after approximately two
seconds.
This is an indication that the ABS system
is working properly.
With a vehicle equipped with an Electronic
Brake Force Distribution (EBD) system,
the ABS warning light comes on together
with the brake system warning light if the
EBD system becomes faulty. For further
details of the EBD system fault warning,
refer to “Brake system warning light”.
NOTE
If the warning light behavior is as de-
scribed in the following, the ABS sys-
tem may be considered normal.
— The warning light comes on right af-
ter the engine is started but goes out
immediately, remaining off.
— The warning light remains on after
the engine has been started, but it goes
out when the vehicle speed reaches
approximately 8 mph (12 km/h).
— The warning light comes on during
driving, but it goes out immediately
and remains off.
When driving with an insufficient battery
voltage such as when the engine is jump
started, the ABS warning light may come
on. This is due to the low battery voltage
and does not indicate a malfunction.
Do not operate the engine with the
oil pressure warning light on. This
may cause serious engine damage.
When the warning light is on, the
ABS function shuts down; however,
the conentional brake system con-
tinues to operate normally.
If the warning light behaves as fol-
lows, the ABS system may not work
properly.
— The warning light does not come
on when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position.
— The warning light comes on when
the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, but it does not go
out even when the vehicle speed
exceeds approximately 8 mph (12
km/h).
— The warning light comes on dur-
ing driving.
(U.S.)
(Canada)
If any of these conditions occur,
have the ABS system repaired at the
first available opportunity by your
Saab dealer.
