Audi Q3: Luggage compartment lid
General information
WARNING
- Applies to: vehicles with anti-theft alarm
system: When the vehicle is locked from the
outside, no one, especially children, should
remain in the vehicle, because the windows
can no longer open from the inside. Locked
doors make it more difficult for emergency
workers to enter the vehicle, which puts
lives at risk.
- Always close and lock the luggage compartment
lid and the doors when the vehicle is
not in use. Otherwise someone such as a
child could enter the vehicle through the
luggage compartment and become locked
inside it. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or
around the vehicle.
- To reduce the risk of injuries by pinching,
make sure that no one is in the operating
area of the luggage compartment lid when
closing, especially near the hinges, at the
upper and lower edges of the lid, or all
around the edge of the lid in general.
- After closing the luggage compartment lid,
make sure that it is latched. The luggage
compartment lid could open suddenly while
driving, which would increase the risk of an
accident.
- Never drive with the luggage compartment
lid ajar or open, because poisonous gases
from the surrounding area can enter the vehicle
interior and increase the risk of asphyxiation.
- If there is a luggage rack (such as a bicycle
rack) on the luggage compartment lid, the
luggage compartment lid may not open
completely under certain circumstances or it
could close by itself if open due to the extra
weight. Therefore, the open luggage compartment
lid must be given additional support
or the cargo must first be removed
from the luggage rack.
- Applies to: vehicles with power-operated or
sensor-controlled luggage compartment lid:
Pay careful attention when closing the luggage
compartment lid. Otherwise, you could
cause serious injury to yourself or others despite
the pinch protection.
Note
The luggage compartment lid can bump into
objects such as the garage ceiling when opening
and become damaged.
Tips
When the vehicle is locked, the luggage compartment
lid can be unlocked separately by
pressing the
button on the vehicle
key.
The luggage compartment lid locks automatically
when it is closed again.
