Mechanical opening of the central locking system

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.

In cases when the lock motor is de-energized, the lock must be "emergency opened" mechanically. Turn the key past the normal unlocking angle and the lock motor will unlock at the same time as the door. In cases when the power supply has been cut abruptly, the alarm will be activated (if the car is fitted with alarm).

Emergency opening from central locking mode can be done from the driver's door.
