77 Instruments and controls
Wipers and washers There are three intermittent wiper positions.
Moving the control stalk to the
spring-loaded position between 0 and 2 will
produce a single sweep of the wipers.
The wipers are designed for optimal clean-
ing at all driving speeds. At higher speeds,
it may be possible to detect a slight ”sweep-
ing” sound. This may be due to the
increased air pressure on the blades at
higher speeds.Headlight washers3If low beam is on, the headlights are washed
every fifth time the windshield washers are
used or if 2 minutes have elapsed since the
windshield was last washed. The headlight
washers cannot be activated separately.
The headlight washers are of the high-pres-
sure type, which means that other parts of
the car may become wet if you activate the
washers while the car is stationary.
Rain sen sing wipers3
The rain sensor automatically controls the
windshield wipers. The sensor is located on
the windshield beside the rearview mirror.
The system varies between single sweeps
of the windshield and continuous wiping
depending on how much water or snow
there is on the windshield.
Activate the system by lifting the control
stalk to position 1. The wipers make one
sweep for reference to see how much water
and snow is on the windshield. In future, the
sensor compares the amount of water and
snow on the windshield with this reference
value.
WARNING
Turn the rain sensor off if the ignition is
ON when clearing snow and ice from the
windshield, to avoid personal injury.NOTICETo avoid damaging the windshield wip-
ers, turn the rain sensor off before wash-
ing the car in an automatic carwash.

82 Instruments and controlsFunctionsPressing 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 recircu-
lation will be controlled automatically.
Pressing AUTO once will cancel all previous manual
selections.
The ACC system is in AUTO mode when the engine
is started.
A/C compressor OFF.
No cooling of inlet air. Temperature, air distribution
and fan speed still under automatic control.
Turn the fan control anticlockwise until "OFF" lights
up.
ACC system OFF.
Fan OF F.
A/C compressor OFF.
Air distribution selections locked in current settings.
Recirculation can be selected manually.
Heating
3 and ventilation
3 of the front seats is deac-
tivated.
Pressing the AUTO button will put the system into
automatic 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, however,
that heating will deactivate automatically after a set
time, depending on the outside temperature.
The ACC system can be programmed to activate heat-
ing automatically when outside temperature is below
+5 °C and the temperature inside the car is below
+10°C. See page 85.
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 automatically to optimize
cooling although it can also be switched on and off
manually.
Recirculation does not appreciably change the air
quality but it can be useful to switch it on to avoid
unpleasant smells from entering the cabin.

all the windows (except the rear side windows,
where the air flow is off) are demisted by:
Fan: high speed.
The air is directed to the defroster vents.
Temperature increases somewhat.
Recirculation OFF.
Activation of rear window/door mirror heating.
The defroster function remains active until another
selection is made. Note, however, that rear win-
dow/door mirror heating will deactivate automati-
cally after a set time, depending on the outside
temperature.
Two presses: Air is directed to the windscreen
without the fan speed being increase or the rear
window heating being switched on.
To revert to a previous setting, press the AUTO
button.

85 Instruments and controls
Adaptation of ACCIt is also possible to customize the ACC system, e.g. to adapt to
driving and weather conditions.
Adaptation and restoration of factory settings is done by holding
the respective button depressed approx. 2 seconds until a chime
sounds.
Make sure the ignition is ON.
Example: If you want the ACC system to handle activation and deac-
tivation of rear window/door mirror heating, hold the button
depressed approx. 2 seconds until a chime sounds.
The display shows:
ACC:AUTO
RDEFR CTRL
When “Adaptation of ACC“ is done, it will apply until factory settings
are restored. Function Operation in AUTO mode
after adaptationFactory setting
The rear window heating will
come on after the engine has
started if the outside temper-
ature is below +5 °C.
– This function helps to pre-
vent ice or mist forming on
the rear window in cold,
damp weather. Fuel con-
sumption may increase
slightly.
Heating is selected
manually.
Seat heating comes on if the
system determines that
heating is necessary based
on the temperature in the
seat and the outside temper-
ature
.
There are two settings
for heating. Repeat-
edly pressing the but-
ton switches between
low output, high output
and off.

217 Car care and technical information
Maxi fusesThe Maxi fuses are housed in the fuse box
under the hood. These fuses can be
checked in the same way as the other fuses.
The Maxi fuses are designed to protect the
car’s electrical system from being dam-
aged. Each Maxi fuse protects a number of
electrical circuits and functions and there-
fore has a higher rating (amperage) than the
standard fuses. No spare Maxi fuses are
supplied with the car.
DICE / TWICEDICE = Dashboard Integrated Central Elec-
tronics
TWICE = Theft-Warning Central Electronics
DICE and TWICE are electronic control
modules that monitor and control a variety
of functions:
DICE controls (among other things):
Front lights and interior lighting
Instrument illumination
Intermittent wiper operation
Electric heating of rear window and door
mirrors
Cooling fansTWICE controls (among other things):
Central locking.
Car alarm (Anti-theft system)
Engine immobilizer
Autochecking of lights.
Electric heating of rear seat
Safety belt reminder
Electrically adjustable passenger seat
The DICE and TWICE control modules are
linked to a data bus, which is basically an
information carrier that allows information to
be exchanged between all the control mod-
ules and components connected to the bus.
If a fault occurs in any of these components,
diagnostic faults codes are set in the rele-
vant control module, which facilitates fault
diagnosis. We recommend that you contact
an authorized Saab dealer.
The scan tool connector for fault diagnosis
is located under the instrument panel on the
drivers side.NOTICEIf a Maxi fuse blows, it means that there is
a major fault in the electrical system.
Have the car checked without delay by a
workshop. We recommend that you con-
tact an authorized Saab dealer.
