Remote control




All Saab 9-3 with anti-theft alarm fitted from the factory are equipped with remote control. On delivery, 2 remote controls are supplied with each car. It is used to operate the central locking system, as back-up for immobilization and for arming/disarming of the anti-theft alarm.

When retrofitting an anti-theft alarm, another 2 remote controls are needed. Remote control can also be retrofitted on cars without anti-theft alarm.

There are three versions of the remote control with different transmitting frequencies and ranges.



The remote control is also available integrated with the key. Only the version with a separate key is illustrated in the technical description.

Function

Point the remote control towards the car. When a button is pressed, the remote control sends a control signal which is received by the remote control receiver unit. The range is approx. 8 metres.

The signal from the remote control is a fixed identification code (each remote control has its own code) and a “rolling code” which is changed each time a button is pressed.
