Special cases arm/disarm: General

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Saab 9-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The anti-theft alarm normally functions as described on the previous pages, but if for instance a passenger door is open when the alarm is armed, or is opened during the delay period, the following happens:

  1. Door, bonnet or tailgate is open or opened during the delay time when the alarm is armed:
    • LED flashes (very fast) for 10 seconds and then changes to normal display for armed alarm (1 flash/3 seconds).
    • The door, bonnet or tailgate is then disconnected from the alarm system.
  2. Door, bonnet or tailgate are closed while the alarm is armed.
    • The LED changes from flashing to being lit continuously for 10 seconds, indicating a new delay period which applies only to the door, bonnet or tailgate which was closed.
    • After the delay period, the door, bonnet or tailgate are once again covered by the alarm monitoring. The LED changes to normal display for armed alarm (1 flash/3 sec).
