254 Car careAutomatic tire pressure
monitoring3The pressure monitoring system consists of
a sensor in each wheel, a detector in three
wheel housings and a receiver. The sensors
are located inside the wheels directly adja-
cent to the air valves.Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should consult the appropriate section of
this owner’s manual to determine the proper
tire inflation pressure, see page 306.) When
the low tire pressure telltale is illuminated,
one or more of your tires is significantly
underinflated.
You should stop and check your tires as
soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire to over-
heat and can lead to tire failure.
WARNING
The system is intended to aid the driver.
The driver is always ultimately responsi-
ble for ensuring that the tire pressure is
correct.
For optimum safety, economy and
comfort, check the tires regularly, even if
the automatic tire pressure monitoring
system has not issued an alarm
NOTICEGreat care must be taken when changing
tires so as not to damage the sensors that
are integrated in the valves.
 Remove the rear side first.
 Start removing the tire at a point oppo-
site the valve.
 Do not allow the tire removal equip-
ment to come closer than approx.
10 cm to the valve.
 Start and finish fitting approx. 4 in.
(10 cm) from the valve.
 Do not inflate the tire to above
700 kPa/100 psi.

255 Car care
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping ability.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction telltale to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. When
the malfunction telltale is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or signal
low tire pressure as intended. TPMS mal-
functions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of incompatible
replacement tires on the vehicle. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale after
replacing one or more tires on your vehicle
to ensure that the replacement tires are
compatible with the TPMS.
Tire pressure information is sent wirelessly
to the receiver.
The system checks the tire pressure when
the car is travelling over 18 mph (30 km/h).
The system is “self-learning”, which means
that the position of the wheels can be
changed without requiring adjustments to
the monitoring system. The spare wheel
does not have a sensor.
The sensor batteries have an average life of
10 years. The batteries cannot be changed
but require the sensor units to be replaced.
The system does not warn if a tire is overin-
flated.If the tire pressure drops
If the tire pressure drops 25% or more below
highest recommended pressure (see tire
pressure label on page 267), the SID will
issue a warning as to which tire is affected.
Adjust the tire pressure as soon as possible.If the vehicle is equipped with a different
wheel size than those fitted as standard and
therefore should use a different recom-
mended highest tire pressure the owner
shall contact a workshop to have the system
recalibrated. We recommend that you
contact a Saab dealer. Low tire pressure,

256 Car careIf the tire pressure continues to drop, the
SID will issue a warning alarm when the
pressure is an additional 0.2 bar below the
first warning level.
Reduce speed (avoid heavy braking and
violent steering wheel movements) and
stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so.
Change the wheel.Malfunction
The message shown above will be dis-
played on the SID if:
 a wheel without pressure sensor is fitted
(e.g. spare wheel)
 one, two or three pressure sensors are
broken or missing
 two or more detectors are missing or
broken
 the receiver malfunctions
 a fault arises in the system.
The message shown above is not displayed
if none of the wheels have sensors, such as
if winter wheels without sensors are fitted.
TiresYour new vehicle comes with high-quality
tires made by a leading tire manufacturer. If
you ever have questions about your tire
warranty and where to obtain service, see
your Saab Warranty and Service Record
Booklet for details. Low tire pressure.

Contact Saab dealer.
WARNING
Poor maintained and improperly used
tires are dangerous.
 Overloading your tires can cause
overheating as a result of too much
friction. You could have an blow-out
and a serious accident. See “Loading
Your Vehicle” on page 267.
 Underinflated tires pose the same
danger as overloaded tires. The
resulting accident could cause serious
injury. Check all tires frequently to
maintain the recommended pressure.
Tire pressure should be checked
when your tires are cold.
 Overinflated tires are more likely to be
cut, punctured or broken by a sudden
impact – such as when you hit a
pothole. Keep tires at the recom-
mended pressure.
 Worn, old tires can cause accidents. If
your tread is badly worn, or if your tires
have been damaged, replace them.
