You may notice that using the A/C
causes a greater drop in fuel
economy than you are used to in
other vehicles. Although the amount
of extra fuel used by the A/C load on
the engine is no greater than other
vehicles, it is more noticeable
because of your Civic Hybrid’s
excellent fuel mileage. Using the
A/C in hot weather may result in
fuel economy that is lower than
expected.
The air conditioning puts an extra
load on the engine which makes it
usemorefuel.Usethefresh-air
ventilation when possible.
If air conditioning is needed, you can
save some fuel by using the A/C in
‘‘ECON’’ mode. When the outside
temperature is above freezing, this
mode allows the Auto Idle Stop
function to shut off the engine when
the vehicle is stopped, resulting in
fuel savings.
