2008 Audi Q7 Owner's Manual 

After unlocking the vehicle, you have 60 seconds to open a door or the rear lid. After 60 seconds, the vehicle automatically locks and the anti-theft alarm system activates again. The rear lid can be locked or unlocked either by using the remote control or by inserting and turning the key in the driver's door lock. Unlocking the vehicle with the remote control will only unlock the rear lid, to open it, the lid handle needs to be pressed.

If the rear lid is open or not properly locked when the ignition is turned on, the door and rear lid warning => page 27 appears in the instrument cluster display. The automatic rear lid opening/closing process can be stopped by holding the rear lid with your hand. The lid can then be further opened/closed by hand. If there is a mechanical problem with the automatic rear lid opening processor there is an obstruction, the process is stopped immediately.

If there is a mechanical problem with automatic closing for the rear lid or there is an obstruction, it opens again slightly right away. Check to see why the rear lid could not be closed before attempting to close it again. If the rear lid on a locked vehicle is unlocked with the middle button e5 on the remote key, the rear lid is automatically locked again immediately after closing. This is indicated by the turn signals blinking.

The following applies to vehicles equipped with the Advanced Key* feature: if the remote control key is left in the luggage compartment, luggage compartment will automatically unlock itself after you lock the vehicle. This prevents you from unintentionally locking your key in the luggage compartment. If the vehicle battery charge drops below a certain level, you can still open or close the rear lid manually, however, you will need to apply more force to close it. As soon as the electrical connection to the trailer socket is completed on vehicles with a factory installed a towing hitch or a trailer hitch that was installed later according to factory specifications, the automatic rear lid function can only be operated via the handle in the rear lid.
