112 OnStar - TelematicsYour new vehicle comes equipped with
advanced telematics hardware and one full
year of Onstar Premium Service. Saab
Telematics is a sophisticated in-vehicle
system allowing convergence of wireless
communications, GPS (Global Positioning
System) satellites and advanced vehicle
electronics.
You must activate immediately to ensure
you receive your full year of service, as your
prepaid subscription begins at the time of
delivery.
Here’s how to activate your OnStar ser-
vice:
1 Push the blue OnStar button located in
your Saab. After a prerecorded mes-
sage explaining the benefits of onStar,
you will be greeted by a live OnStar advi-
sor. The advisor will activate your
OnStar service.
2 Provide the information requested by
the advisor to activate your account and
set up your personal profile. This will
take approximately 10-15 minutes.
Using OnStarWelcome to OnStar. This section gives you
all the information you need to get started
using OnStar, including descriptions of all
OnStar services. It also introduces the
added services of Personal Calling, Virtual
advisor, and the Onstar Subscriber website.
For a complete explanation of these addi-
tional services, please see pages 116, 120
and 121.
NOTE: In order for OnStar to operate, the
car audio system must be switched on.OnStar is EasyIt’s easy to start using your OnStar system.

ter. An advisor will then help
you with any of the services
included in your OnStar plan.

able, OnStar will generate a
fast busy tone. The OnStar sys-
tem will retry calls a number of
times before returning to the
