Maintenance Service Reminder Reset - Procedure 02
- SID 1 and 2 are equipped with a service indicator which shows the message TIME FOR SERVICE on the Saab Information Display (SID) display when it is time to service the car. Time for this is controlled by the odometer which shows how far the car has travelled since the last service, and the day counter which calculates the number of days since the last service.
- Service interval is programmable and is programmed during production according to the various markets. If necessary, the interval can be changed using the diagnostic tool. Service message is shown when the day counter reaches 365 days or when 600 miles are left until the next service, whichever is the sooner.
- The message is shown when ignition is turned on and reads CHECKING. To manually reset service indicator, go to next step. The service message will reset automatically when it has been activated (shown) on the display 20 times.
- Reset the service indicator by first pressing briefly on the CLEAR button to confirm the message. Then hold down the CLEAR button for at least 8 seconds. CLEAR is displayed after 4 seconds and SERVICE after a further 4 seconds. The SID gives 2 acoustic signals in quick succession. On the second signal SERVICE starts to flash. Resetting means that the service interval is recalculated and the day counter zeroed.
