Autochecking of lights, main instrument panel The warning and indicator lights shown above should come on when the ignition switch is turned to ON. They should go out after about 4 seconds once the engine has started or after the fault-free self-diagnosis of each system or function.
Instruments Tachometer The tachometer displays the engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute. A protective function (interruption of the fuel supply) limits the engine speed within the red zone.
Speedometer (U.S. speedometer shown) Cars sold in U.S.: The speedometer dis- plays the speed of the car in miles per hour (mph). Cars sold in Canada: The speedometer displays the speed of the car in kilometres per hour (km/h). It receives information about vehicle speed from the ABS’s wheel sensors.

Instruments and controls
Temperature gauge The temperature gauge shows the temper- ature of the coolant. The needle should be in the middle of the scale when the engine is at normal operating temperature. If the needle goes into the red zone (which can occur at high outside air temperatures or under heavy engine loads), choose the highest possible gear ratio and the lowest possible engine speed, and avoid shifting down.
NOTICE
If the needle, despite the above action, enters the red zone, stop the car in a suit- able place and allow the engine to idle. If the needle continues to rise, switch off the engine.
If the needle repeatedly enters the red zone, stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so and check the coolant level (see page 209).
WARNING
Never open the cap of the expansion tank completely when the engine is hot, open with care. The pressure in the cooling- system can cause hot coolant and steam to be released. Failure to heed this warn- ing may result in personal injury.
Turbo gauge The turbo gauge indicates the air volume used for combustion, which is equivalent to the engine load. At low loads and when the engine is used for braking, the needle will move within the white zone. Under certain barometric conditions the needle may enter the first part of the red zone without necessarily indicating that a fault has arisen.
93_U S_M 07.book Page 89 W ednesday, A pril 12, 2006 9:30 A M
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), acceleration is limited by reduc- ing 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.

WARNING
Switch on the hazard flashers if the car has to be left at the roadside on account of a crash, engine trouble or a flat tire. If you carry a warning triangle or flares, they should be set up along the side of the road 50–110 yds. (50–100 metres) behind your vehicle. If the car is not clearly visible (e.g. over the brow of a hill or bridge), place the triangle/flare even further back.
The button for the hazard warning lights is located on the climate control panel. When the button is pressed, all the direction indicators and the symbol in the button flash simultaneously. If an indicator bulb breaks, the frequency with which the indicators flash will be doubled. Hazard warning lights should only be used if, because of an accident or breakdown, the car constitutes a hazard to other road users.

Fresh air for the cabin is drawn in through an
inlet at the bottom edge of the windshield. It
passes through an effective filter before
reaching the climate control system and
delivery into the cabin. The air is evacuated
via openings in the parcel shelf. It is then led
through outlets on either side of the car

(ACC) automatically maintains the desired
cabin temperature, regardless of the
weather outside.
The system will achieve the desired temper-
ature in the quickest possible way.

The incoming air is treated in three stages: first it passes through a filter; it is then dehu- midified and cooled; and finally, if required, it is heated. The filter is a combined particle and char- coal filter. It is so efficient that levels of noxious substances such as benzene and toluene are also reduced.
To reduce potential misting on the insides of the windows, the glass should be cleaned with a quality glass cleaner. How often this will need to be done depends on how clean the air is - if there are smokers in the car, the windows will need to be cleaned more frequently.

Instruments and controls
Temperature control The cabin is divided into two temperature zones: 1 Driver’s zone. 2 Passenger zone. The temperature in the rear seat will be a mixture of the two zones. The cabin temperature can be set to between 61–79°F (16–26°C). The selected temperature is not the actual air temperature but corresponds to the com- fort level normally experienced at that tem- perature after allowance has been made for the airflow, relative humidity, solar radiation, and so on, currently prevailing inside the car.
(cid:129) The most usual temperature setting is
between 64–75°F (18–24°C), depending on personal preference and what clothing is worn.
(cid:129) Change the temperature setting in 2°F
(1°C) steps.
Make sure the air vents are open when cool- ing the cabin in warm weather. When the ignition is switched off, only the temperature control affects the system the next time the engine is started. The system will warm up/cool down to the temperature to which the control is set.
Panel vent
Air vents The air vents swivel universally, so that air can be directed as desired. In winter, for instance, the outer vents can be directed onto the door windows for enhanced demisting. The amount of air can be individually con- trolled by the regulator on each vent. If you wish to reduce the airflow, start by half- shutting the vent in question. Certain variants have an air vent on the rear of the floor console.

MAX heat (red indicator): MAX heating is obtained when the tempera- ture knob is turned to the first position past 26 (to the red LED). The driver’s side selection controls air dist- ribution and the recirculation status. The temperature can be adjusted on the pas- senger side. MAX heating produces: (cid:129) Maximum heat. (cid:129) Air distribution to windscreen and floor. (cid:129) Recirculation OFF. (cid:129) High fan speed.
MAX cooling (blue indicator): MAX cooling is obtained when the tempera- ture knob is turned to the first position past 16 (to the blue LED). The driver’s side selection controls air dist- ribution and the recirculation status. The temperature can be adjusted on the pas- senger side. MAX cooling produces: (cid:129) Max. cooling effect (A/C compressor will run even if AC OFF has been selected).

Condensation water When the A/C compressor is on, the incom- ing air is dehumidified. The resulting con- densation water is drained away through an outlet under the car. It is therefore perfectly normal for water to be seen dripping from this outlet when the car is parked. The warmer the ambient air and the higher the humidity, the more con- densation will form.

Functions Pressing AUTO will cancel all manual settings. If a manual function is selected, it will be locked in but other functions will be controlled automatically. The selected temperature is always maintained automatically. Temperature, air distribution, fan speed and recir- culation will be controlled automatically. Pressing AUTO once will cancel all previous manual air distribution selections. When the engine is started, the ACC system will be in AUTO mode. The A/C-compressor is turned off. The incoming air is not cooled or dehumidified. Tem- perature, air distribution, fan speed and recirculation will be controlled automatically. Turn the fan control anticlockwise until "OFF" lights up. ACC-system OFF. Fan OFF. A/C-compressor OFF. Air distribution selections locked in current settings. Recirculation can be selected manually. Heating 3 of the front seats is deactivated. Pressing AUTO-button will put the system into auto- matic mode. Reactivation by turning the fan control clockwise one click causes the system to resume any manual selec- tions.

The rear window and door mirror heating is controlled manually. Deactivate the heating as soon as the rear window is clear of ice and misting to avoid imposing a heavy load on the battery longer than necessary. Note, how- ever, that heating will deactivate automatically after a set time. Turn the fan control to increase fan speed. If fan speed 0 is selected, the A/C-compressor will be disengaged and the indicator on the AC OFF button will illuminate.
Recirculation is controlled manually to optimise cool- ing although it can also be switched on and off man- ually. Recirculation does not appreciably change the air quality but it can be useful to switch it on to prevent unpleasant smells from entering the cabin.

Start in cold weather: To start with, the system will automatically select the defroster set- ting, maximum heat and low fan speed. As the engine warms up, air will also be distributed through the floor vents and the fan speed will be increased. As the temperature inside the car nears the selected value, both the fan speed and the heat will be decreased to a level determined by the system.
Start in warm weather: The system will automatically distribute air through the panel vents at high fan speed and will activate the A/C compressor (unless the AC OFF switch has been pressed). If the ambient air temperature is over 77°F (25°C), the recirculation cuts in after 0-15 seconds, if this is required in order to reach the desired temperature. As the temperature inside the car nears the selected value, the fan speed will be decreased to a value determined by the system.

Formation of ice and mist in extreme weather conditions It is only in the most extreme conditions that icing and misting of window glass are likely to be a problem, such as in torrential rain or severe cold coupled with high relative humidity, or when passengers are perspir- ing heavily or wearing wet clothes. The fol- lowing measures are recommended if such problems should occur: 1 Select AUTO and set the temperature to
70°F (21°C)
2 Push one time on the defroster button. If
this is not enough...
3 Increase the fan speed. If this is not
enough...
4 Select a higher temperature.

WARNING
Make sure that people and objects are out of the way of moving door or gate to prevent potential harm or damage. When programming the garage opener, you may be operating a garage door or gate operator. Therefore it is advised to park outside of the garage. Do not use the garage opener with any garage door opener that lacks the safety stop and reverse feature as required by federal safety standards. (This includes any garage door opener model manufac- tured before April 1, 1982.). A garage door opener which cannot detect an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these features increases risk of serious injury or death.
Preparations for first-time programming Before programming the garage opener for the first time, you must delete any factory codes. Press and hold the two outer buttons until the indicator light begins to flash-after 20 seconds. Release both buttons. Do not hold for longer that 30 seconds. The garage opener is now in the train (or learning) mode and can be programmed at any time begin- ning with "Programming" - step 2.
Programming The garage opener can record and store the frequencies of three different remote con- trols. The battery in the remote control should be fairly new for programming to work well. Do not repeat "Programming" - step two to train additional devices to a second or third button. Begin with "Programming" - step three. 1 Turn the ignition ON. 2 Press and hold the two outer buttons
(buttons one and three) - releasing only when the indicator light begins to flash (after 20 seconds). Do not hold the buttons for longer than 30 seconds and do not repeat step two to program a second and/or third hand-held transmit- ter to the remaining two buttons.

8 Firmly press and release the "learn" or "smart" button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.)
Note: There are 30 seconds in which to ini- tiate step nine. 9 Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the programmed button. Repeat the "press/hold/release" sequence a second time, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming process. The garage opener should now activate your rolling code equipped device.
Note: To program the remaining two but- tons, begin with "Programming" - step three. Do not repeat step two.

Gate Operator / Canadian Programming Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter signals to "time-out" (or quit) after several seconds of transmission - which may not be long enough for the garage opener to pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to "time-out" in the same manner. If you live in Canada or you are having diffi- culties programming a gate operator by using the "Programming" procedures (regardless of where you live), replace "Programming " step 4 with the following: Note: If programming a garage door opener or gate operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the "cycling" process to pre- vent possible overheating. Continue to press and hold the button while you press and release - every two sec- onds ("cycle") your hand-held transmitter until the frequency signal has successfully been accepted by the garage opener. (The indicator light will flash slowly and then rap- idly.) Proceed with "Programming" step five to complete.
from the button you wish to program while keeping the indicator light in view. The transmitter should face the mirror from below or left side of the mirror.
4 Simultaneously press and hold both the
chosen and hand-held transmitter buttons. Do not release the buttons until step 5 has been completed.
Note: Some gate operators and garage door openers may require you to replace this Programming Step 4 with procedures noted in the "Gate Operator / Canadian Pro- gramming" section. 5 After the indicator light changes from a slow to a rapidly blinking light, release both the mirror and hand-held transmit- ter buttons.
6 Press and hold the just-trained button
and observe the indicator light. If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and your device should acti- vate when the button is pressed and released.
Note: To program the remaining two but- tons, begin with "Programming" - step three. Do not repeat step two. If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns to a constant light continue with "Programming" steps 7-9 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped device (most com- monly a garage door opener).
