As in all previous versions of InDesign, there is no (etc) and you can only save one version down. Needless to say, even this will silently remove all CS5-only features.

To save down, choose Export, then select InDesign Markup Language (IDML). To successfully open the file in CS4, this needs to be fully updated, because Adobe tinkered a bit with the IDML-export after releasing CS5.
