238 Car care and technical information
Headlight aiming
The vehicle is equipped with vertical and
horizontal aim indicators. The aim has been
preset at the factory and should normally
not need further adjustments. This is true
even though your vertical and horizontal
aim indicators may not fall exactly on the "0"
(zero) marks on their scales.
If your headlights are damaged in an acci-
dent, the headlight aim may be affected. If
you believe your headlights need to be
re-aimed, we recommend that you take it to
your Saab dealer for service, however, it is
possible for you to re-aim your headlights as
described in the following procedure.
To check the aim, the vehicle should be
properly prepared as follows:
• Place the vehicle on a level pad or sur-
face.
• The vehicle should be unladen and fuel
tank full, and one person or 160 lbs.
(75 kg) on the drivers seat.
• The vehicle should not have any snow, ice
or mud attached to it.
• Tires should be inflated to the prescribed
pressure.
• Rock the vehicle to stabilize the suspen-
sion.
WARNING
Before checking/adjusting the headlight
aiming, switch off the engine to avoid
danger of fingers and hands being injured
by moving parts.
The radiator fan can start up even when
the engine is switched off.
NOTE
To make sure that your headlights are
aimed properly read all instructions
before beginning. Failure to follow these
instructions could cause damage to
headlight parts or a not correctly aimed
headlight.
