192 Car care and technical information

Fuses

The fuses are housed in two fuse panels:
one at the end of the instrument panel on the
driver's side, and one under the hood.
To check if a fuse has blown, first remove it
from the panel (see below). If the filament is
broken, the fuse has blown.
A special tool for removing fuses is provided
at the bottom of the fuse panel. Simply push
the tool onto the fuse, squeeze and remove
the fuse.

WARNING
To avert the risk of short-circuiting and/or
fire breaking out in the electrical system,
the following advice should be heeded:
• Always consult an authorized Saab
dealer before modifying or adding any
electrical equipment. Failure to do so
can result in the electrical system
being damaged.
• Never replace a fuse with one having
a higher/lower rating than specified
(see page 194). The color of the fuse
indicates its amperage.
• If the same fuse blows repeatedly,
have the electrical system checked by
an authorized Saab dealer.
