alarm

Horn wails for 30 seconds.
To switch off the alarm, deactivate the system in
the normal way (unlocking).
Key The range of the key is normally 5–10 yds. (5–
10 metres), although it can be substantially more
than this in ideal conditions (range can vary
greatly depending on the position of the car and
its surroundings).
If the key is not working, it may be because the
code signal has not been synchronized with that
in the control module for the car alarm. To rectify
this, press the unlock button on the key at least
four times in quick succession. When it is recog-
nized, the door locks will cycle.
If a key is lost, the new one will have to be pro-
grammed (all keys must be present) to match the
car's unique security code. We recommend that
you contact an authorized Saab dealer.
Battery for key The battery for the key will normally have a life of
4 years. When the battery needs changing,
"Remote control battery
low. Replace battery."
will appear on the Saab Information Display
(SID).
We recommend that you contact an authorized
Saab dealer.
Car-battery If the battery is disconnected while the alarm is
voltage active (car is locked), for example during an
attempt to steal the car, the alarm will be
triggered.
Alarm signals may differ between model variants for different
countries.
Some of the car-alarm functions can be reprogrammed – con-
sult your Saab dealer for further details (see page 272).
