By not using the AC you are shortening the life of the ac compressor. It needs to run to oil itself to keep from drying out.
My 85' 900 that I bought YEARS ago from my mom had 100K of it's life with the ac on ALL THE TIME. She didn't think to push the button to turn it off, just turned the dial to make it warmer. Anyway, I sold it later with 275K on it and it still ran like a top and also still had the same compressor!! I wouldn't worry about it on a saab.
