176 Starting and driving ESP® indicator light When the remote control is turned to the ON position, the lamp is lit for about 4 seconds while the system performs self-diagnosis. The light comes on for a short period of time when the ESP® system is operative. Operation of the ESP® indicates reduced cohesion between the tires and the road, and that extra care should be taken by the driver during continued driving. If a fault is detected in the system, the following message will be displayed on the SID: Stability control failure. Contact service. The cruise control system (if active) will automatically be disengaged if the ESP® is operative. NOTICE Changes to the chassis, such as a change of wheels, shock absorbers or springs, could affect the function of the ESP® system. Always consult a workshop before changing any chassis components. We recommend that you contact a Saab dealer. ESP button ® Turning ESP® system off The system can be turned off manually with the ESP® button , whereupon the ESP® OFF lights up if: • a fault has been detected and the system has therefore been switched off • the system has been switched off manually light will come on. The car must be travelling slower than 35 mph (60 km/h). The TCS is also disengaged. The ESP® is always engaged during braking, even if it has been switched off manually with the ESP® button.
