Active and Passive Arming of the Saturn Security SystemActive arming of the Saturn Security System requires you to press the "LOCK" button on your transmitter in order toarm the Saturn Security System. Passive arming of the Saturn Security System does not require you to press the"LOCK" button on your transmitter to arm the system, however, you may press the "LOCK" button on thetransmitter to arm the system right away instead of waiting the one minute for the system to arm itself.The Saturn Security System can be programmed to be in either the active arming mode or the passive arming mode.It is not possible to have both modes turned on at the same time. Your Saturn will be set to the active arming modefrom the manufacturer.Contact your Saturn retailer to program your Saturn to the passive arming mode or to turn these modes on or off. Thefollowing sections will explain how both arming modes work.Active Arming of the Saturn Security System"LOCK" (Saturn Security System Arms)You must press the "LOCK" button on your key chain transmitter in order to arm the Saturn Security System. Whenyou press the "LOCK" button on your transmitter, all doors will lock, the Saturn Security System will armautomatically, and the dome lamp will flash twice. If you press the "LOCK" button again within five seconds afterthe first press, the horn will chirp to let you know that the Saturn Security System has armed.If a door is open when you press the "LOCK" button, the doors will lock, but the Saturn Security System will notarm until all the doors are closed. Once the doors are closed, the Saturn Security System will arm and the domelaptop will flash twice to let you know the system is armed. The horn will not chirp even after all the doors areclosed. To get the horn to chirp if a door was open during the arming process, you must press the "LOCK" button onyour transmitter twice after the doors are closed."UNLOCK" (Saturn Security System Disarms)When you press the "UNLOCK" button on your transmitter once, the driver side door will unlock, the SaturnSecurity System will disarm, and the dome lamp will come on.If you press the "UNLOCK" button again within five seconds of the first press, the rest of the doors will unlock.Passive Arming of the Saturn Security SystemLock (All Doors Lock; Saturn Security System Does Not Arm)
When the Saturn Security System on your car is set to the passive arming mode, it will arm one of two ways. Theyare as follows;1 In the passive arming mode, the system will arm itself in one minute after the ignition key is turned to the "LOCKposition, and you can open and shut the car door. For example, when you stop your car, turn the ignition key tothe "LOCK" position, remove the key and exit the car. Immediately after you shut the door, the security systemclock will begin to count down, and after one minute has passed, the Saturn Security System will arm itself. (Thedoors will not lock automatically )2. The Saturn Security System will delay automatic arming for ten minutes after the ignition key is turned to the"LOCK" position if you do not open and close the door. For example, if you stop your car, turn the ignition keyto the "LOCK" position and remove the key, but decide to sit in your car instead of getting out and closing thedoor, the Saturn Security System will arm after ten minutes. This is meant to give you some time to collect yourthings and exit the car without setting off the alarm.When in the passive arming mode, the door locks will not lock automatically. You must press the interior door lockswitch or use your key to lock the door.Unlock (Saturn Security System Disarms)You must press unlock on the transmitter to disarm the security system. If you unlock your door using the keywithout pressing the "UNLOCK" button on the transmitter, the alarm will be activated. If the alarm activates, youcan press any button on the transmitter to stop the alarm. When you press the "UNLOCK" button on yourtransmitter, the doors will unlock.If you hear three horn chirps when you press the "UNLOCK" or "LOCK" button on your transmitter, that meansyour Saturn's alarm was triggered while you were away.Trunk (Liftgate) ReleaseThe trunk, or liftgate, will unlock when the car symbol button is pressed on the transmitter with the ignition off orwhen your Saturn is not moving. The dome lamp will come on and remain on For 40 seconds, or until you put yourkey in the ignition, and turn it to the "RUN” position. For safety reasons, you cannot open your trunk or liftgateusing the car symbol button on your transmitter when your Saturn is moving.Panic AlertThe horn will sound and the dome lamp will flash when you press the red horn symbol button on the transmitter.This panic alarm will continue for two minutes, or until you press the red horn symbol button again, whichevercomes first.Illuminated EntryThe dome lamp must be in the "DOOR" position for the illuminated entry feature to work. When you press the
"UNLOCK" button on your transmitter, the dome lamp will come on and stay on for 40 seconds, or until a door isopened. After the door is opened, the dome lamp wilt remain on as long as the door is open. Once you close thedoor, the dome lamp will stay on for 40 seconds, or until you put your key into the ignition, and turn the key to the"RUN" position.This feature will allow you to see inside your car before you open the door, and will allow extra time with the domelamp on once you get inside your car.The Saturn Security System can keep your Saturn's battery from running down if a door is left open or ajar with thedome lamp switch in the "DOOR" position. If the ignition is turned to the lock position, the ignition key is removed,and a door is left open or ajar, the dome lamp will turn off in 30 minutes. The dome lamp switch must be in the"DOOR" position in order for the battery saver feature to function. The Saturn Security System cannot turn the domelamp off if the dome lamp switch is in the "ON" position. If the dome lamp is left in the "ON" position for anextended period of time, the battery will run down.Starter Disable FeatureYour car cannot be started when the Saturn Security System is armed. Your car can only be started when the SaturnSecurity System is disarmed.Starting Your Saturn (If your transmitter is lost or damaged and the Saturn Security Systemis armed)Use your key to unlock and open the door. The alarm will sound for about two minutes.After the alarm stops, put your key into ignition and turn your key to the "RUN,' position.Turn your key back to the "LOCK" position and remove your key from the ignition.After about fifteen minutes, you will be able to start your ear.If you have not misplaced your transmitter but it is not working properly, refer to the synchronization section thatfollows. If your transmitter is still not working properly after you have gone through the synchronization procedure,follow the steps above and see your Saturn retailer for service.SynchronizationSynchronization may be required due to the security method used by this system. The transmitter does not send thesame signal twice. The receiver will not accept a signal that has been sent to it more than once. This eliminates thepossibility that the signal will be recorded and played back.To synehronize your transmitter with the receiver, press and hold the '“LOCK" and "UNLOCK" buttons on thetransmitter, at the same time for about 6 to 7 seconds, near your Saturn. The horn will chirp four times, and the domelamp will flash once during each horn chirp. The door locks will unlock or lock, depending on their starting position.If the horn does not chirp or the door locks do not unlock or lock, see your Saturn retailer for service.
Transmitter and Receiver RangeThe range of the Saturn security System should be about 26 feet (8 meters). You may notice a decrease in range attimes, and this should be considered normal for any security system.If your transmitter does not work, or you are having to stand closer than normal to your Saturn for the transmitter towork:You may have to replace your transmitter battery. See ''Replacing a Battery in the Transmitter" for more information.You may have to synchronize your transmitter with your receiver. See "Synchronization" for more information.You may be too far from your Saturn. Check your distance from the car.You may be in a crowded parking lot and other cars are blocking the signal. Take a few steps in either direction andtry again..You may be experiencing radio frequency interference (RFI) RFI is caused by close proximity to radio broadcaststations, electric motors, heaters, alarm systems, and other frequencies that distort the Saturn Security Systemtransmission frequency. Check for these items near your location.You may have to stand closer to your Saturn in rain, snow, and in very high and low temperatures.Your transmitter may work better if you hold it vertically or horizontally, depending where you are around yourSaturn.You may notice that just taking one step to the right or left makes the transmitter work. This is due to your Saturn'sbody frame structure.If none of the above apply, see your Saturn retailer or authorized service provider for service.Battery ReplacementUnder normal use, the battery in your key chain transmitter should last about two years. You can tell if the battery isweak if the transmitter won't work at the normal range in any location. If you have to get close to your vehicle beforethe transmitter works, it's probably time to change the battery.For battery replacement, use a Panasonic® battery, 3 volt, type CR2032, or equivalent. To replace the battery,follow these steps:Openingtransmitter toreplace battery
1. Use a small coin or a flathead screwdriver to separatethe bottom of the transmitter from the top.Removing battery from transmitter2. Remove the battery and replace with a Panasonic®CR2032, or its equivalent.NOTICEWhen removing or replacing the battery, use care not to touch any of the circuitry. Static from your bodytransferred to these surfaces may damage the transmitter.3. Make sure the positive (+) side of the battery faces up.4. Snap the top and bottom sides of the transmitter together.5. Test the transmitter with your Saturn to see if it isworking correctly.If the transmitter does not work, try synchronizing your transmitter with your receiver. See "Synchronization" formore information.Matching Transmitter(s) to Your SaturnEach transmitter is coded to prevent another transmitter from activating the Saturn Security System in your Saturn. Ifa transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased at your Saturn retailer.Remember to bring any remaining transmitters with you when you go to your retailer. When the retailer matches thereplacement transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters must also be marched. Once your retailer hascoded the new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each Saturn can have up lo fourtransmitters marched to it.Programming FeaturesYour Saturn Security System also enables you to turn any of the following features on or off, depending on yourneeds; the alarm system, the starter disable and the horn chirp.
