Charging System Light; Voltmeter Gage - Saab 2007 9-7X Owner's Manual

Charging System Light

It should go out once the engine is running. If it
stays on, or comes on while you are driving,
you may have a problem with the charging system.
It could indicate that you have problems with a
generator drive belt, or another electrical problem.
Have it checked right away. Driving while this
light is on could drain your battery.
If you must drive a short distance with the light on,
be certain to turn off all your accessories, such
as the radio and air conditioner.

The charging system
light will come on briefly
when you turn on the
ignition, but the
engine is not running,
as a check to show you
