Saab 9-7X Automobile User Manual


 
You may notice a slight change in engine performance
when the air-conditioning compressor shuts off and
turns on again. This is normal.
@ (Recirculation): Press to turn the recirculation
mode on or off. An indicator light comes on to show that
recirculation is on. This mode recirculates and helps
to quickly cool the air inside the vehicle. It can be used
to help prevent outside air and odors from entering
the vehicle. Recirculation mode can be used with vent
and bi-level modes, but it cannot be used with floor,
defog or defrost modes.
If recirculation mode is selected with floor, defog, or
defrost modes, the indicator flashes three times
and turns off to indicate the selection is not available.
The air conditioning compressor may also run while
in recirculation mode. This is normal and helps to
prevent window fogging.
If the weather is cold and damp, the system may cause
the windows to fog while using recirculation mode.
If the windows do start to fog, select defog or defrost
mode and increase fan speed.
Recirculation mode, if selected, will be cleared when the
engine is turned off.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the rear window.
< (Rear): Press to turn the rear window defogger
on or off.
An indicator light comes on to show that the rear
window defogger is on.
The rear window defogger will turn off approximately
10 minutes after the button is pressed. If additional
warming time is needed, press the button again.
The heated mirrors will also come on when the rear
window defogger is turned on. See Outside Heated
Mirrors on page 2-34.
Notice: Do not use a razor blade or sharp object
to clear the inside rear window. Do not adhere
anything to the defogger grid lines in the rear glass.
These actions may damage the rear defogger.
Repairs would not be covered by your warranty.
