Saab 2001 9-5 2.3 Turbo Ecopower, Owner'S Manual

Page: 74 / 272

74 Instruments and controls
The rear-window and door-mirror heating is
controlled manually.
Switch off the heating as soon as the rear window
is clear, to avoid imposing a heavy load on the bat-
tery longer than necessary. Note, however, that the
heating will go off automatically after 5-10 minutes
(depending on the outdoor temperature) or sooner
if the voltage in the electrical system falls below
10 V
.
The ACC system can be programmed to switch on
the heating automatically when the outdoor temper-
ature is below 41°F (+5
°
C) and the temperature
inside the car is below 50°F (+10
°
C) (see ”Program-
ming I and II”, on pages 76 and 77).
Recirculation is selected automatically for effective
cooling, but it can also be switched on/off manually.
Although recirculation does not substantially affect
the air quality, it is useful to prevent unpleasant
smells or fumes being drawn into the car from
outside.
