Question Answer
Can you charge the battery with a
plug into an A/C outlet?
There are no provisions for
charging the high voltage battery
from a power supply external to
the vehicle.
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.
