2020 VOLKSWAGEN ID.4 boot

Troubleshooting
Please refer to and at the start of
the chapter on page 84.
Boot lid cannot be opened or closed

electrical system and to the high-voltage
battery.
Driving with an open boot lid
Driving with an open boot lid is particularly
dangerous. All objects and the open boot lid
must be secured properly and suitable meas-
ures taken.
Driving with an open boot lid increases the
air resistance of the v
ehicle and thus also the
energy consumption of the electric drive.
This considerably reduces the possible range
of the vehicle. Volkswagen does not recom-
mend driving with the boot lid open due to
the resulting reduction in range. WARNING
Driving with an unlocked or open boot lid
can cause serious injuries.
x Always driv

e with the boot lid closed.
x Always stow all items in the luggage
compartment securely. Loose objects
can fall out of the luggage compartment
and injure other road users.
x Always drive carefully and ensure that
you think ahead.
x Avoid any abrupt or sudden driving and
braking manoeuvres as this can cause
the open boot lid to move unpredictably.
x Any objects protruding from the luggage
compartment must be marked to ensure
that they are visible to other road users.
Observe the legal requirements.
x Any objects protruding from the luggage
compartment must never be held in po-
sition by the boot lid.
x If it is necessary to drive with the boot
lid open, all luggage racks and cargo
stowed on the rack must be removed
from the boot lid. NOTICE
The vehicle height, and possibly the length,
are diff
erent when the boot lid is open. Driving through water on
roads
Please f

ollow these rules to help prevent
damage to your vehicle when driving through
water, for example if the road is flooded:

Automatically switching on the side lights
If the headlights are switched on at the time
the ignition is automatically deactiv
ated, the
side lights are switched on either until the
vehicle is locked or for no more than about
15 minutes. WARNING
When leaving the vehicle, always ensure
that the electronic parking brake is switch-
ed on and that all doors, windows, the boot
lid and bonnet are completely closed and
locked. Electronic immobiliser
The immobiliser helps to pre
vent the vehi-
cle

x
Accelerate carefully and gently.
x A
void sudden braking and driving ma-
noeuvres.
x Brake earlier than in normal driving. NOTICE
Rubbing objects on the rear windows can
cause damage, e.g. to the heating wires of
the rear window heating. Luggage compartment

ble as a shelf for objects, not even for light
pieces of clothing
