Remote control




All Saab 9-5 models have remote control. On delivery, 2 remote control units are supplied for each car. They are used to control the central locking, as a back-up for the immobilizer and to arm/disarm the anti-theft alarm.

The remote control is of the combi-type, i.e. consists of a remote control transmitter and a key with transponder. There are three models of remote control with different frequencies and ranges.

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.

LOCK

TAILGATE

Security

The number of codes received per second which are sent by the remote control is limited to 10 to prevent code grabbing.
