Car care
Prevent the compressor getting wet.
The canister of seal ant can only be used
once. Replace a used canister at a work-
shop. We recommend that you contact an
authorised Saab workshop.
The tire repair kit can be used at tempera-
tures down to –22°F (–30 °C). At low tem-
peratures the sealant is more viscous and
so is less able to seal slightly larger
damage.
If a punctured tire is to be repaired:
Allow the engine to idle. The compressor will consume some energy.
Apply the handbrake.
Turn on the hazard warning light.
Position the warning triangle to warn other drivers.
The repair kit is stowed under the luggage
compartment floor. 1 Allow the engine to idle.
2 Remove the repair kit from the luggage
compartment. 3 Remove the electric cable and the air
hose from the compartment on the
bottom of the compressor.93_US_7carcare_MY09.fm Page 263 Tuesday, April 15, 2008 11:26 AM
