DRIVING Just Drive It ! Vital Info Ignore th e advanc ed techno logy! It's too easy t o get preoccupie d with everything Prius automatically does for you, esp ecially with the Multi-Display providing constant performance in formation. The hybrid system was designed so you could to drive it like a tradition al car.
Engine Warm-Up Reducing Emission s is the highest priority for Prius. It strives to remain a AT-PZEV (A dvanced Technology - Partial Zero Emissi on Vehicle) at all tim es, which means the catalytic-converter must be kept hot… even if it requires consu ming some gas to accomplish that.
Reverse Beeper Disable Some people fi nd the reverse beepe r distracting. Although there isn't a method to c hange the repetitive beeping to just a short warning, there is a way to disable it completely. To do that, carefully follow these steps: 1.
Hybrid Driving From a Stop The gasoline e ngine is most efficient when running ar ound 70% maxim u m. So if y ou can't press lightly enough on the pedal to accelerate using only electricity, go ahead and press a little harder than usual.
Stealth Driving Engine Off While the gasoline engine is off and you’re driving using just battery power, the mode you’re in is called "stealth" (since the vehicle motion is totally silent). Invoking "st ealth" is easy once the engi ne has warmed up (and you aren't r unning the A/C or Heate r too heavily).

Multi-Display Screen Off ! Many new owners accide ntally discov er the off button. Innocently pr essing it causes them to panic, because the Multi-Display unexpectedly goes blac k. Don’t worry though. It’s easy to turn back on. 1. Press the " INFO " button on the left, n ext to the Multi-Display.

UNDERST ANDING MPG Measurement Lifetime LIFETIME is t he most useful measurem ent. Total m iles driven, divided by total gallons cons umed, informs y ou how efficiently the car has perform ed overall. Tank TANK is the measurement between each fill up.
On the Highway Just like with traditional vehicles, efficiency drops the faster you drive on a highway. 60 MPH (96 km /h) is more effici ent than 70 MPH ( 113 km/h). Spe eding up to 7 5 MPH (121 km /h), you'll observe MPG drop even more. It pay s to drive slower (obey the speed-limit).
External Loads Any type of accessory rack for carrying external loads (Receiver, Roof, or Strap-On) will cause aerodynamic drag. So, expect a MPG drop when you use one.
EPA Estimates Purpose The intent of the EPA efficiency values posted on each new vehicle wi ndow-sticker is only to provide a basis for comparison, not an actual MPG expectati on... as commonly believed. Read the fine-print on this digital scan of an actual 2004 Prius window-sticker: Don’t be misled by those large numbers.
Gentle Acceleration The testing procedures utilize gentle acceleration, which does not represent the way people actually drive anym ore. For example, when merging ont o a highway now, much more harsh acc eleration is required. The tests don’t reflect the MPG penalty that causes.
Seasonal Cycles All Vehicles Seasonal cycles affect all vehicles , not just hybrids. But with a Pr ius, you are m uch more aware of the MPG changes due to having a Multi-Display con stantly informing you of efficiency differences.
Traffic It is common for people to forget how much traf fic patterns cha nge during the wi nter. Slippery roads cause major delays, increasing driv ing time significantly. So even with th e benefit of the hybrid system, there is still a very real plenty for getting stuck in that traffic heavy traffic.

NURTURING Filling the Tank Fill Speed It is best t o use the slowest sett ing (the farthest latch on the pum p-handle); otherwis e, the pump could shut off prem aturely giving you an inaccurate indica tion of "full". Topping Off Don't! Once the pump aut omatically stops, don't trying squeezi ng any more fuel into the tank.
Emission Bladder Inside the gas tank is a flexible bladder. It contracts and expands to fill the empty void that would otherwise be filled with va por as gasoline is consumed. The reduct ion of vapor em issions helps to keep Prius extraord inarily clean.
Polishing Owner Tests "Nu Finish" is one of the products t hat works well. The great polished look lasts for about 6 months, enough to get throu gh an entire winter. But wh en you wipe the dried residue off, it actually leaves lightly faded streaks at first.
PSI convenience Tire pressure needs to be routinely chec ked (for all vehicles, not just Pri us). Temperature drops cause PSI to decrease. Heat ca used by driving increases PSI, m aking measurements inaccurate until cool. MPG & Safety are directly dependent on properly maintained PSI.
Tire Upgrades HSD Prius co mes with standard, r un-of-the-mil l tires. In other wo rds, they are fairly typical. So som e owners are plea sed wit h them and others ch oose to upgrade.

MAINTENANCE Oil Changes Oil Refer to the " Increasing MP G "section. 5,000 Miles or 6 Months 5,000 m iles (8,000 km ) or 6 months, whichever come s first. Having the engine shut off frequen tly and not using it as the so le propulsion source will allow oil to last longer than in tradition al vehicles.
Overfilling This is an unfortunate reality that far too much owners have to face. Oil pumped from bulk barrels into your engine is commonly not carefully measured by dealers an d quick oil-change places. So make sure to check the level yourself after the servi ce is complete.
Window Wipers Front Blades Replacing the t wo wiper blades i n the front is surpri singly easy. You d on’t even have to rem ove the wiper assembly from the car (thoug h you can, if you want). About every 30 ,000 miles or so (about 48,000 km) it will becom e necessary.
Rear Blade To pivot the wiper arm upward, all you have to do is remove the clamp. It is the 2.5 inch (6 cm) piece of flexible plastic at the base, where it connects to the windo w. Just pull both sides out and slide it toward you. With that plastic off, the access to the blade is now possible.
Air-Conditioning Filter Access There is a Hepa filter for the Air-Conditioning system (Toyota Part: 8 7139 - 47010) directly behind the glove- box, which can be changed witho ut any tools. Roug hly every 30,000 miles or so (ar ound 48,000 km) replacement will be needed.
OPTIONS SKS: Smart-Entry It is proximity detection system that automatically senses a wireless transmitter (called a "key-fob") in your pocket or purse, allowing you to unlock the doors & hatch without the need to use a physical key or push a button on a remote.
Homelink It is a set of buttons on the rear-view mirror available for cu stom programming, to supplement your other re motes. Garage Door To program a Homelink butt on on your mi rror to open & cl ose your garage-d oor, do the foll owing: 1) If the mirror is off, t urn it on.

OT H E R Battery-Pack Replacement The power m anagement system was desi gned to maxim ize battery life. It rig orously works to always keep t he charge-level at opt imum, by never fully draining or fully recharging it . And you can clearly see that by watching the indicator on the Multi-Display.

Side Mirrors Blind-Spot As with m ost all vehicles, Prius has a blind-spot immediately to the left-rear of the driver. The solution to that is carefully aiming the mirror on the side. You can also add a blind-spot mirro r to it, the very same way as with other vehicles.
