Default Shutting valves

Hi, I'm new here.
I have a Honda Civic Hybrid 2005. I've been getting my head around the technicalities of how the variable valve timing works. I now understand it !
But, when coasting, or under no load conditions, all the valves can be kept shut for added economy. How do they do this ?

Thanks Keith.
