2020 VOLKSWAGEN ID.4 ignition

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

wise cause accidents or injuries. The sys-
tem is not a substitute f
or the full concen-
tration of the driver.
x Adapt your speed and distance from the
vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather,
road and traffic conditions.
x Your hands should always be on the
steering wheel so that you can steer at
any time.
x Observe the displays in the exterior mir-
ror housings and on the instrument clus-
ter display and act in accordance with
the requests.
x Always pay attention to what is happen-
ing around the vehicle.
x Never use the lane change system if the
radar sensors are dirty, covered or dam-
aged. These circumstances can impair
the proper functioning of the system.
x It may be hard to see the display in the
wing mirror in direct sunlight. The radar sensors calibrate themselves
once in the first f
ew kilometres after
vehicle delivery and if the sensors are re-
paired. The sensor range may be limited dur-
ing the calibration phase. Driving with the lane change
system
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 172. Fig. 113
In the e
xterior mirror housing: visual
displays of the lane change system.
Switching on and off
You can switch the lane change system on
and off in the Assist systems menu of the In-
fotainment system. When the lane change
system is switched on, the yellow indicator
lamp in the exterior mirror housing lights
up once briefly.
This most recent system setting is retained
e

ven after the ignition has been switched off
and on.
Function
When switched on, the lane change system is
active from a speed of around 15 km/h
(9 mph). The lane change system is deactiva-
ted at a vehicle speed below 10 km/h
(6 mph).
In the following driving situations, the yellow
indicator lamp lights up in the housing of
the respectiv

e exterior mirror:

WARNING
Driving without the brake servo or with re-
stricted brake serv o function can consider-
ably increase the braking distance and
cause accidents and serious injuries.
x Never deactivate the electric drive or
switch off the ignition as long as the ve-
hicle is still moving.
x If the brake servo does not function or
the vehicle is being towed, the brake
pedal will have to be depressed more
forcefully as the braking distance will be
increased due to the lack of assistance
for the brake system. Brake blending
The brake blending function regulates be-
tween the braking action of the electric driv

e
motor during energy recovery (brake energy
recuperation) and mechanical braking by the
driver. Switching ESC Sport on and
off
Switching ESC Sport on and off
The ESC Sport function interv

enes later than
the normal ESC to stabilise the vehicle.
With some equipment levels, ESC Sport can
be switched on and off.

WARNING
Improper use of the sockets and electrical
accessories can cause fires and se vere inju-
ries.
x Never leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle. Sockets and the devices connec-
ted to them can be used when the igni-
tion is switched on.
x If the electrical device gets too hot,
switch off the device immediately and
disconnect it from the socket. NOTICE
x In order to pre
vent damage to the electri-
cal system, never connect equipment that
supplies electric power, such as solar pan-
els or battery chargers for charging the
12-volt battery, to the 12-volt socket.
x Use only electrical devices that have been
approved in accordance with current
guidelines concerning electromagnetic
compatibility.
x In order to avoid damage due to voltage
fluctuations, always switch off any electri-
cal devices before switching the ignition
on or off and before activating the vehi-
cle

Changing a wheel
Introduction to the topic
You should carry out a wheel change yourself
only when the v
ehicle is parked safely, you
are familiar with the safety procedures and
have access to the correct equipment. Some
models are delivered from the factory with-
out a jack or box spanner. If this is the case,
wheels should be changed by a qualified
workshop.
The jack supplied with the vehicle is only de-
signed for changing a wheel when one vehi-
cle tyre is damaged and has to be replaced. If
both tyres on one side of the vehicle, both
tyres on one axle, or all tyres are damaged,
seek expert assistance. WARNING
Changing a wheel can be dangerous, espe-
cially when carried out at the side of a road.
Please note the f

ollowing steps in order to
reduce the risk of serious injuries:
x Stop the vehicle as soon as possible and
when safe to do so. Park the vehicle at
a safe distance from moving traffic in
order to carry out the wheel change.
x All passengers and children in particular
must be at a safe distance and away
from the area of work during the wheel
change.
x Switch on the hazard warning lights to
warn other road users.
x Check that the surface the vehicle is
parked on is level and firm. If necessary,
use a large, strong board or similar sup-
port for the jack.
x Only change the wheel yourself when
you feel confident with carrying out the
procedure. If not, seek expert assistance.
x Always use suitable and undamaged
tools to change the wheel.
x Always switch off the electric drive via
the ignition and move the selector lever to the P position to reduce the risk of
unintended v

ehicle movement.
x Switch on the electronic parking brake.
x The wheel bolt tightening torque should
be checked with a correctly functioning
torque wrench immediately after chang-
ing a wheel.
x In the case of vehicles with a Tyre Pres-
sure Loss Indicator, the system must be
re-synchronised immediately after
a wheel change
