Just be aware-- some dealers will insist that it is illegal to turn the thing off.
That's what my dealer intially said. I complained pretty vocally and asked them to give me the citation to the applicable law or regulation. Eventually, they called Saab legal. And they said the dealer could turn it off, but only if someone also told me that if I don't shift at the recommended shift points, I should not expect to get the EPA mileage estimates.
In short, if you have a problem, make your dealer call Saab legal.
(The thing that really annoyed me was that if you actually shifted when it came on, in many cases you'd be lugging the engine.)
