3 Change the battery. Fit the new battery
so that it is positioned in the same way
as the old battery.
4 Fit together the two halves of the remote
control and press them together until
you hear a click. Reinsert the traditional
key into the remote control.
After changing the battery you must
synchronize the remote control with the
car’s receiver unit so that the car recognizes
it. Synchronization takes place when the
remote control is inserted into the ignition
switch for the first time after a battery
change.
If the battery has been changed outside the
car and the car is locked, proceed as fol-
lows:
1 Unlock the front left door with the tradi-
tional key. If the car has a car alarm, this
will be tripped.
2 Open the door and insert the remote
control into the ignition switch. If the car
has a car alarm, this will be silenced.
The remote control and receiver unit are
now synchronized.
Immobilizer
The remote control contains an electronic
code that is unique to your car. When the
remote control is inserted into the ignition
switch, this code is checked and the LED
double-flashes for 3 seconds. If the code is
correct, the car can be started.
Each time you remove the remote control
from the ignition, the electronic starting
interlock is activated, the LED double-
flashes for 3 seconds and the car becomes
immobilized. If an incorrect remote control is
now inserted into the ignition switch (e.g.
the remote control of another car), the
immobilizer will remain operative (the LED
will not flash for 3 s) and it will not be possi-
ble to start the car.
If the immobilizer system malfunctions, the
Saab Information Display (SID) displays:
Immobilizer failure.
Try starting again.
Contact Saab dealer.
