Saab 2006 9-7X - Manual (Page 181)

STABILITRAK ACTIVE
The STABILITRAK ACTIVE message will be displayed
anytime the system activates to maintain vehicle
stability. Any combination of engine speed management,
brake traction control, and stability control will display
the STABILITRAK ACTIVE message on the DIC.
STABILITRAK NOT READY
The STABILITRAK NOT READY message may be
displayed if driving conditions delay system initialization.
This is normal. Once the system initializes, the
STABILITRAK NOT READY message will no longer
be displayed on the DIC.
STABILITRAK OFF
The STABILITRAK OFF message will be displayed when
you press the StabiliTrak
® button for more than five
seconds or when stability control has been automatically
disabled. The StabiliTrak
® button is located on the
transmission shift handle. To limit wheel spin and realize
the full benefits of the stability enhancement system, you
should normally leave StabiliTrak
® on. However, you
should turn StabiliTrak ® off if your vehicle gets stuck in
sand, mud, ice, or snow and you want to rock your
vehicle to attempt to free it, or if you are driving in
extreme off-road conditions and require more wheel spin.
See If Your Vehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow
on page 4-32. To turn the StabiliTrak
® system back on,
press the StabiliTrak ® button again.
The message may be displayed if the brake system
warning light is on. See Brake System Warning Light
on page 3-33.
The message will turn off as soon as the conditions that
caused the message to be displayed are no longer
present.
TIGHTEN FUEL CAP
If the vehicle’s fuel cap is not tightened properly, this
message may appear on the DIC and a chime will sound.
Fully reinstall the fuel cap. See Filling the Tank on
page 5-8. The diagnostic system can determine if the
fuel cap has been left off or improperly installed. A loose
or missing fuel cap will allow fuel to evaporate into the
atmosphere. The DIC message will remain on until the
message is cancelled with the return button on the
steering wheel. The DIC message will also be cancelled
if the ignition is turned off.
The DIC message and the Service Engine Soon light
may come on again during a second trip if the fuel cap
is still not tightened properly. See Malfunction Indicator
Lamp on page 3-36 for more information.
