I'm sorry, I probably should have used the Saab terminology...which I think is "afterheater."
The afterheater is a feature only found on the V6. You can run the heat in the car for a certain amount of time after you turn the engine off. The afterheater turns on the heating fan and runs a secondary coolant pump. The SID indicates the amount of heat left in the coolant. I've run it for as long as an hour before (usually 45 minutes is the maximum amount of time before the coolant goes cold.)
The manual says nothing about worrying about the battery when running the afterheater. So I don't think the afterheater should normally burn the battery up.
