Fault Codes - Saab 2000 9-3 Owner's Manual

110 Saab 9-3 Audio System
Mobile phones and
communications radios
Mobile phones and communications radios
that do not have a separate external
antenna radiate an electromagnetic field
inside the car.
WARNING
The electromagnetic field inside the car
can be detrimental to your health.
NOTE
The electromagnetic field can cause
interference with other electrical systems
in the car, such as the Audio System.
Saab therefore recommends that a car
phone/radio transmitter should always be
connected to an external antenna.
An external antenna also provides
improved transmission/reception and a
greater range.
Mobile phones and communications radios
that are not supplied as standard equipment
by Saab can interfere with the car's electri-
cal system and cause misleading fault
codes to be generated.
WARNING
Always consult an authorized Saab
dealer for installation guidance.
If you feel that any of the warnings or fault
indications are unclear, have the equip-
ment checked by an authorized Saab
dealer.

Fault codes

NOTE
Great care should be exercised in trying
to rectify a fault. If you are at all unsure,
contact an authorized Saab dealer.
The Audio System has a built-in diagnostics
function. If a fault is detected, a fault code is
generated to help dealer technicians to
diagnose the fault. Below is an example of
a fault code that you might be able to rectify
yourself.
Fault code Possible cause

ERROR wrong side up or defec-
12/17/19 tive.

not be loaded/ejected.
WARNING
The CD player/CD changer is classified
as Class 1 laser equipment.
• Service and repair work must only be
carried out by authorized technicians.
• If the casing is damaged, hazardous
laser radiation can occur.
Adjusting the frequency steps
North America/Europe
If the car is taken from Europe to North
America, the radio's frequency steps will
need to be adjusted.
• With the radio off, press and hold SEEK
(mid-segment) and switch the radio on at
the same time.
The station presets will be cancelled and
replaced by preset frequencies.
