the mark shown in the following illustra-
tion.
You may also use compact discs (CD-Rs
and CD-RWs) that have the following
marks, but you may not use some discs if
they were produced using writing methods
not compatible with your vehicle’s audio
system.

You cannot use a DualDisc in the CD
player. If you insert a DualDisc into the

form inside the CD player, preventing nor-
mal operation. If this happens, eject the
CD and wait for the player to dry out.

Skipping may occur when the CD player
is subjected to severe vibration (for exam-
ple, when the vehicle is driven on a rough
surface).

To remove a disc from the case, press
the center of the case and hold both edg-
es of the disc. If the disc surface is
touched directly, contamination could
cause poor tone quality. Do not touch the
disc surface.

Use a clean disc whenever possible. If
there are deposits, wipe the disc surface
from the center outward with a dry, soft
cloth. Be sure not to use a hard cloth, thin-
ner, benzene, alcohol, etc.

Do not use any disc that is scratched,
deformed, or cracked. Also, do not use
any disc that has a non-standard shape
(for example, a heart shape). Malfunctions
or problems might result.

A disc is vulnerable to heat. Never keep
it either in places exposed to direct sun-
light, near heaters or in vehicles parked in
the sun or on hot days.

Cup holder
Front passenger’s cup holderA dual cup holder is built in the center con-
sole, beside the parking brake lever.
Cigarette lighter socketA cigarette lighter socket can be found be-
hind the ashtray lid under the climate con-
trols. Push gently on the lid to open it. A
cigarette lighter plug is an optional acces-
sory. It is available from your Saab dealer.
The cigarette lighter socket may also be
used as a power source for an in-car use
electrical appliance.
When not in use, always keep the
holder stored while driving to re-
duce the risk of injury in the event
of a sudden stop or an accident.

Do not pick up a cup from the cup
holder or put a cup in the holder
while you are driving, as this may
distract you and lead to an acci-
dent.

Take care to avoid spills. Beverag-
es, if hot, might burn you or your
passengers. Spilled beverages
may also damage upholstery, car-
pets or audio equipment.

Use with a cigarette lighterThe cigarette lighter operates only when
the ignition switch is in the “ON” and
“ACC” positions.
To use the cigarette lighter, push in the
knob and wait a few moments. It will auto-
matically spring up when ready for use.

Using as an accessory power
outletElectrical power (12V DC) from the battery
is available at the socket when the ignition
switch is either in the “ACC” or “ON” posi-
tion.
If you use the socket as an accessory
power outlet, take the following precau-
tions.
When the socket is not in use, always put
the cap on the socket to prevent any for-
eign object from entering it.

The electrical power outlet locat-
ed on the lower part of the instru-
ment panel is originally designed
to use a genuine Saab cigarette
lighter plug. Do not use non-genu-
ine cigarette lighter plugs in the
socket. Doing so may cause a
short-circuit and overheating, re-
sulting in a fire.

If the socket is ever used for a
plug-in accessory such as a cell
phone, that may damage the por-
tion of the socket’s internal mech-
anism that causes a cigarette
lighter plug to “pop out” after its
lighter element is heated. There-
fore, do not place a cigarette light-
er plug in a socket that has been
used, even once, to power a plug-
in accessory. Doing so may cause
the plug to stick and overheat,
creating a potential fire hazard.

Do not place any foreign objects,
especially metal ones such as
coins or aluminum foil, into the
socket. That could cause a short
circuit.
To avoid being burned, never grasp
the lighter by the end with the heat-
ing element. Doing so could result
in injury and could also damage the
heating element.
600526
Do not hold the lighter pushed in,
because it will overheat.

Use only in-car use electrical ap-
pliances which are designed for
12V DC and which consume less
than 120W. Overloading the sock-
et can cause a short circuit. Do
not use double adapters or more
than one electrical appliance.
