Saab 9-4X Owner Manual - 2011
Keys, Doors and Windows 2-5
Keyless Locking
If the vehicle has the keyless
access system, this feature allows
you to select whether the doors
automatically lock during normal
vehicle exit. When the vehicle is
turned off and all doors become
closed, the vehicle will determine
how many RKE transmitters remain
in the vehicle interior. If at least one
transmitter has been removed from
the interior of the vehicle, the doors
will lock after eight seconds.
If there are two transmitters in the
vehicle and one is removed, the
other will be locked in. A person
approaching the outside of the
locked vehicle without an authorized
RKE transmitter will not be able to
open the door, even with the
transmitter in the vehicle.
You may temporarily disable the
keyless locking feature by pressing
and holding the power door unlock
button on the instrument panel for
several seconds with a door open.
Keyless locking will then remain
disabled until the door lock switch
is pressed, or until the vehicle is
turned on.
To customize whether the doors
automatically lock when you exit
the vehicle, see “Passive Locking”
under Vehicle Personalization on
page 5‑42.
Lock Sensor
When all doors are closed and the
ignition is off, the vehicle can be
locked by pressing this area on the
door handle. This feature will be
available for several minutes after
the vehicle has been turned off.
Keyless Liftgate Opening
Press the touch pad on the liftgate
handle to open the liftgate if the
RKE transmitter is within range.
Programming Transmitters to
the Vehicle
Only RKE transmitters programmed
to the vehicle will work. If a
transmitter is lost or stolen, a
replacement can be purchased and
programmed through your dealer.
The vehicle can be reprogrammed
so that lost or stolen transmitters no
longer work. Each vehicle can have
up to eight transmitters matched
to it.
Programming with a Recognized
Transmitter (Keyless Access
Vehicles Only)
A new transmitter can be
programmed to the vehicle when
there is one recognized transmitter.
