228 Car careA special tool for removing fuses is provided
on the hatch on the left-hand end of the
dash. Simply push the tool onto the fuse,
squeeze and remove the fuse.Some fuses and relays may be fitted but not
connected to the car’s electrical system.
MAXI fusesThe car also has a number of large fuses
known as MAXI fuses. These are designed
to protect the car’s electrical system from
being damaged. Each MAXI fuse protects a
number of electrical circuits and functions
and therefore has a higher rating (amper-
age) than the standard fuses. No spare
MAXI fuses are supplied with the car.NOTICEIf a MAXI fuse blows, there is a major fault
in the electrical system. Have the car
checked at a Saab dealer.
