Saab Parking
Assistance 3
The parking aid system facilitates parking and
reversing. The system is activated automati-
cally when reverse is engaged or
selected.There are four sensors in the rear
bumper that detect objects up to 6 feet
(1.8 metres) behind the car.
When the sensors detect an object within the
monitored area, the SID will display the text
"PARK ASSIST" and pulses of sound (- - - -) will
be heard. The frequency of the pulses increases
as the car comes closer to the object.
When the distance to the object is less than
12 in. (30 cm), a continuous tone will be heard.
(See your Owner's Manual, section Starting and
driving).
