SAAB MAKES DO-IT-YOURSELF SERVICE EASY
NORCROSS, GA -- A modern Saab 900 or 9000 automobile, with its
microprocessor-controlled fuel injection, electronic engine
management system and distributorless Direct Ignition, doesn't
need much mechanical attention under the hood. But, as every
prudent motorist knows, washer fluid gets low, the oil level
should be checked from time to time and a visual inspection of
the coolant level is always a good idea. In a Saab, underhood
excursions are as simple as possible. All important service
points are identified in bright yellow, and clearly labeled.
Various fluid reservoirs are see-through and conveniently
mounted so that levels can be checked, visually, without
opening them. On Saab four-cylinder engines, the oil dipstick
is attached to the yellow oil filler cap, providing an easy,
clean, heat-resistant handle. Other yellow-highlighted details
on most Saab engines include the washer fluid filler, coolant
reservoir cap, brake fluid cap, transmission fluid dipstick
and battery. Even items that are typically inspected by a Saab
service technician are easy to access, such as the fuse boxes,
headlamp adjustment and power steering fluid. Under the hood,
or in the ergonomically designed cockpit, Saab strives to make
cars as user friendly as possible.
