Operation

The luggage compartment illumination can be switched off manually by means of the switch in the lamp fitting.

Convertible
On the Saab 900 Convertible, the luggage compartment lamp is switched on and off by means of a mercury switch (56) which closes the supply circuit when the lid is opened.
