2000 Saab 9-5 Owner’s Manual.This manual provides practical guidance on driving and caring for your Saab. The Saab 9-5 is available with the following engine variants: • 2.3t Ecopower. • 2.3 Turbo Ecopower. • 3.0t Ecopower. Although the manual describes the most important differences between model variants, it does not include precise specifications of the different variants. Some differences also occur to meet special legal requirements in different countries. Importation and distribution of Saab automobiles, spare parts and accessories are handled exclusively by General Motors of Canada Limited in Canada and by Saab Cars USA, Inc. in the U.S.A. We recommend that you read through the manual before taking the car out for the first time and that you keep it in the car for future reference. To find a specific item, use the overviews given on pages 3-7. A list of contents is given at the beginning of each section of the manual, and there is also a comprehensive index at the back of the book. Supplied with the car is a Warranties and Service Record booklet and a tire warranty folder which specifies the regular maintenance to be carried out. The book also contains important warranty conditions. Engine oil and filter changes Changing the engine oil and filter is required at every service point. Use only a Saab approved long-life oil filter and engine oils meeting the SAE viscosity ratings and API service classifications stated in the Specification section of this Owner’s Manual. The use of extra additives in the oil is not necessary and is not recommended, and may be harmful to turbochargers. More frequent oil changes are recommendedif your vehicle is operated under the following conditions: • Extensive idling • Stop-and-go driving • Driving in cold climates over repeated short trips without sufficient engine warm-up, see page 172. If your driving habits match this description, have the engine oil and filter changed inbetween normal services at 5,000 mile (8,000 km) intervals. The Warranties and Service Record Booklet has provisions to record extra oil changes.
