Instruments and controls 61 Switches Daytime running lights The parking lights and daytime running lights come on automatically when the ignition switch is ON. Note to owners in the U.S.: If you do not want Daytime Running Lights, this feature can be disconnected: switch off the engine and remove fuse No. 35 (see page 194). Note to owners in Canada: Daytime Running Lights must not be disconnected as they are a Canadian Federal legal requirement. 1 2 Light switches IB350 1 High beam signal 2 High/low beam switching High/low beam Parking lights The parking lights can be switched on regardless of the position of the ignition switch. Note: The lighting switch must be in parking or headlight position (low beam position only) to operate the fog lights (see page 63). To switch between high and low beam, lift the control stalk fully towards you (position 2). When the high beam is on, the indicator on the main instrument panel will be illuminated. Courtesy Headlamp Feature A delay function allows the headlights to remain on low beam for about 30 seconds after the driver's door has been closed. To activate this function, switch off the ignition and remove the key. Then, open the driver's door and lift the high/low beam control stalk fully to its second position. The low beam headlights will come on after the driver's door has been closed and will remain on for about 30 seconds. The length of time for this function can be adjusted by your authorized Saab dealer. High beam flasher The headlights come on to high beam when the stalk is lifted to the first spring-loaded position (position 1) and remain on until the stalk is released. Headlights The headlights come on automatically when the ignition is ON and go off when the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position. The parking lights, however, can be on when the ignition switch is in the LOCK position. IB349
