234 Car careFuses
The fuses are housed in three fuse panels:
one behind a hatch on the left-hand end of
the dash, one in the engine bay (additional
small unit in front of battery) and one on the
left-hand side of the trunk. There is space
for spare fuses in the hatch on the left-hand
end of the dash.
To check if a fuse has blown, first remove it
from the panel. If the filament is broken, the
fuse has blown.
WARNING
To avoid the risk of short-circuiting and/or
fire breaking out in the electrical system,
the following should be heeded:
We recommend that you allways
consult an Saab dealer before modify-
ing or adding any electrical equip-
ment. Failure to do so can result in the
electrical system being damaged.
Never replace a fuse with one having
a higher rating than specified (see
page 236). The color of the fuse indi-
cates its amperage.
If the same fuse blows repeatedly,
have the electrical system checked by
a workshop. We recommend that you
contact a Saab dealer.
If a MAXI fuse blows, it means that
there is a major fault in the electrical
system. Have the car checked without
delay. We recommend that you
contact a Saab dealer.

235 Car care
A 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. We recommend that you
contact a Saab dealer.
