Flash/Sound Confirmation For Remote Control






On arming/disarming/unlocking the tailgate using the remote control, a flash/sound acknowledgement can be obtained. Such acknowledgement is programmable and the pattern can be chosen within certain limits.
As delivered, the following is the case:
- if the LH button is pressed to arm the car, the car's direction indicators will flash once for 0.5 seconds. If the LH button is used for unlocking/disarming, this is indicated by the car's direction indicators flashing 3 times. If the car alarm has been set off, this is shown by 5 flashes when disarming.
- if the RH button is pressed to unlock the tailgate, this is not indicated. On the other hand, it is possible to program a flash/sound acknowledgement for this function.

Programming
LH button
Connect an Intelligent Saab Tester (ISAT) scan tool.
Select "PROGRAMMING".
Select "FLASH/SOUND" and then:
1 "ORIGINAL VALUE" to select the same programming as carried out at the factory (see above). It is also possible to select sound acknowledgement for the 3 functions.
2 "ADJUSTMENT" to select a different type of programming to that selected at the factory. See "Flash/Sound Confirmation Adjust".
