Question

Answer

What is the engine oil
change service interval?

The engine oil should be changed every
10,000 miles (16,000 km) under normal
operating conditions. See the Scheduled
Maintenance Guide
chapter.

Can I put E10 or E85 in my
vehicle, and how will it
affect my fuel economy?

Your hybrid vehicle can use E10 (10%
ethanol, 90% gasoline) fuel, but you may
notice slightly reduced fuel economy
because ethanol contains less energy per
gallon than gasoline. Your hybrid vehicle
is not designed to use E85 (85% ethanol).

How long will my high
voltage battery last? Does it
need maintenance?

The high voltage battery system is
designed to last the life of the vehicle and
requires no maintenance.

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.

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.
