54 Instruments and controls Xenon headlight fault indicator (certain variants only) This light indicates that there is a fault in the xenon headlight system, which consists of xenon headlights and an automatic levelling system. If a fault arises in the xenon headlight system, the headlights will be angled down to avoid dazzling drivers in oncoming traffic. Adjust your speed accordingly as visibility will be reduced. Indicator, cruise control This light shows when the cruise-control system is active (see page 164). Indicator, SPORT-mode automatic transmission This light will come on in cars with automatic transmission when the S (SPORT) button on the selector lever has been pressed (position D, 4, 3 or L) see page 163. In this mode, the gear changes occur later, at higher engine revs, giving the engine and transmission a sportier feel. To cancel the SPORT mode, press the S button on the selector lever again. The mode is also deselected automatically when the selector lever is moved to P or R. Indicator, high beam This light shows when the headlights are on high beam (see page 65). NOTE Indicator, rear fog light This light shows when the rear fog light is on (see page 66). The rear fog light is switched off automatically when the engine is switched off. When the fog light is next needed, it will have to be switched on manually again. The rear fog light consists of one light so it should not be mistaken for brake lights. If the xenon headlight fault indicator lights up, have your car checked as soon as possible at an authorized Saab dealer. If you do not rectify the problem, nighttime visibility will be poor since the range of the headlights is reduced. Indicator, WINTER-mode automatic transmission This light shows when the WINTER mode has been selected in cars with automatic transmission (see page 163). In the WINTER mode, the car pulls away in 3rd gear, to help prevent wheelspin on an icy road. To cancel the WINTER mode, press the W button. Indicator, open door If a door has not been closed properly, the pictogram will indicate the door concerned (or tailgate).
