Fuel Gauge; Saab Information Display; (Sid) - Saab 9-3 Owner's Manual

If the needle repeatedly enters the red zone
and the engine at the same time loses
power, because the monitoring system is
limiting the boost pressure, you should
contact a Saab dealer as soon as possible.
If the speed of the car exceeds 143 mph
(230 km/h) (this speed varies between dif-
ferent engine variants), acceleration is lim-
ited by reducing the boost pressure. The
pressure gauge then moves towards the
middle of the white field, indicating a drop in
engine power and consequently the car's
speed.

Fuel gauge

When less than about 2.5 gallons (10 liter)
of fuel is left in the tank, a warning light on
the main instrument panel comes on.
Because of the fuel remaining in the tank,
the amount of fuel required to fill the tank
may be less than the specified tank capac-
ity.
Refueling, see page 156.
