Default Getting in the car?

Hi Just trid to open my XK8, but none of the two key-fobs seem to work, both have fresh batteries from this summer the little red light close to the gearshifter is blinking...as far as I remember the alarm will go off, when I use the key without turning the alarm off, right?...so how do I open the car without waking up the neighbours?


Merry Xmas

That depends on model year and market options.
Turn the key clockwise in the doorlock. The car will unlock and in some cases disarm the alarm.
In other cases you will have to insert the key in the ignition and turn to position "I" within 7 seconds to disarm the alarm.
