2006 Saab 9-5 Owner's Manual - Page 46

46 Security WARNING If remote unlocking should fail to work Unlock the front door with the key. To silence the alarm, insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it to the ON position. The car can now be started. Contact a workshop to have the system checked and repaired. We recommend that you contact an authorized Saab dealer. Locking by key (1) When the car is locked and unlocked the theft alarm is also affected. Turn the key clockwise: all doors locked. The trunk/tailgate release/unlock switch on the driver's door will not work when all doors are locked. Nor will the switch on the center console. Unlocking by key (2) Turn the key counterclockwise once: the driver´s door will unlock. Turn the key counterclockwise twice: all doors, but not tailgate, unlocked. Switch in driver´s door and switch in center console enabled. The remote control also works from inside the car. Therefore, hold the key in such a way that the buttons are not unintentionally pressed when the key is turned, or inserted or removed from the ignition switch. Otherwise, the doors may be unintentionally locked or the tailgate unlocked. On Sedan models, the trunk may even be opened. Having the doors locked when you are driving will reduce the likelihood of: • Passengers, especially children, opening doors and falling out of the car. • Intruders entering the car when it is moving slowly or at a standstill. However, you must also remember that locked doors can hamper rescuers in the event of a crash. 1 2 IB1555 Locking/unlocking by key 1 To lock 2 To unlock
