- Fig. 1 Rear of Audi A6: Foot gesture
Applies to Audi A6s: with convenience key and sensor-controlled boot lid
Important: The car key must be on your person. You must be standing behind the boot lid. The distance from the rear of the Audi A6 should be approx. 20 cm. The ignition must be switched off. Take care not to slip.
With a single fluid movement, swing your foot forwards and back under the bumper without touching it Fig. 1. The boot lid will open when the system detects the gesture.
The boot lid will open only if you make the exact gesture described above. This is to prevent the boot lid from opening in similar situations, for instance if you walk between the rear of the Audi A6 and a garage door.
General notes
In certain situations, the system may be temporarily unavailable or the functionality may be restricted. This can happen in the following cases, for instance:
- If the boot lid was closed immediately beforehand.
- If you park near a hedge and the wind blows the branches back and forth under the Audi A6 over an extended period.
- If you wash your Audi A6 with a high-pressure cleaner or drive through an automatic car wash.
- In heavy rain.
- If the bumper is heavily soiled (e.g. after driving on salted roads).
- If the radio signal from the remote control key was affected by interference from other transmitters (e.g. mobile phones or remote control devices).
