Question Answer
What is the purpose of the
ECON button?
ECON mode may provide improved
fuel economy by preventing the
gasoline engine from running for the
sole purpose of providing air
conditioning. When the engine turns
off, the A/C compressor does not
operate and warm air may come out
of the vents. In ECON mode, A/C
operates as normal when the
gasoline engine is running.
Can I tow the hybrid behind my
motor home with all four wheels
down?
Yes. Your hybrid vehicle can be
“flat-towed” without modification.
See the Recreational Towing
section in the Tires, Wheels and
Loading chapter for more
information.
