DRIVING Just Drive It ! Vital Info Ignore all the advanced tech nology! It's too easy t o get pre occupied wit h everything Prius automatically does for you, especially 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. That way, you can enjoy the[...]

Engine Warm-Up Reducing Emission s is the highest priority for Prius. It strives to remain a AT-PZEV (A dvanced Technology - Partial Zero E mission Vehi cle) at all tim es, which means the catalytic-conve rter must be kept warm even if it requires consuming some gas to accomplish that. Fortunately, you still get better th an aver age mi leage, even[...]

Reverse Beeper Disable Some people fi nd the re verse beeper di stracting. Although there isn't a m ethod to change the repetitive beeping to just a short warning, there is a way to disable it completely. To do that, carefully follow these steps: 1. Switch to the odometer/trip value to disp lay "ODO" by pushi ng the “ODO TRIP” bu[...]

Hybrid Driving From a Stop The gasoline e ngine is m ost efficient whe n running ar ound 70% m aximum. So i f you can' t press lightly enough on the pedal to accelerate using only electricity, go ahead and press a little harder than usual. That brisk (but not aggressive) in crease in speed will save a small am ount of gas, resulting in an over[...]

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 movement is totally silent). Invoking "st ealth" is easy onc e the engine has warm ed up (and you a ren't running t he A/C or Heat er too heavily). While driving, just fi[...]

Radio Channel Scan Press the " SCAN " button by the radio tuner kn ob. It will begin scanning for radio chann els. When it does finds a station, a few seco nds will play, then it will auto matically scan for the next. Press the "SCAN" button again when you wa nt the scanning t o stop. If you press then hold the "SCAN" [...]

Outside Air Vent Changing the " Air Conditione r" mode to draw in air directly from the outsi de for cooling rather than allowing it to be influenced by the heater-c ore isn’t an obvious process, but it is surprising ly easily once yo u know how. Many people call this "open ing the vent" and it is used most frequently in the s[...]

UNDERST ANDING MPG Measurement Lifetime LIFETIME is t he most useful measurement . Total m iles driven, di vided by t otal gallons consumed, informs y ou how effici ently the car has perform ed overall . Tank TANK is the measurement between each fill up. You press the RESET button when the tank is full. The resul ts are informative, but not perfect[...]

On the Highway Just like with traditional vehicles, efficiency drops the faster you drive on a highway. 60 MPH (96 km /h) is more ef ficient th an 70 MPH ( 113 km/ h). Speedi ng up to 75 MPH (1 21 km/h) , you'll observe MPG drop even m ore. It pays t o drive slower (obey the speed-limit). Think of it this way, pedaling a bicycle rapidl y takes[...]

External Loads Hitch Racks & Roof Carriers cause aerodyna mic drag . So, expect a MPG drop when y ou use one. Engine Warm-Up Short Trips are horribly inefficient for all ve hicles. Prius is no exception; however, it’s far more noticeable since the Multi-Display provides immediate feedback to act ually show you the lower MPG. The efficiency be[...]

EPA Estimates Purpose The intent of the EPA efficiency values posted on each new vehicle wind ow-sticker is onl y to provide a basis for comparis on, not an actual MPG expectat ion... as c ommonly beli eved. Read the fine-print on this scan of a 2004 Prius window-sticker: Don’t be m islead by the big num bers. Real-Worl d results vary signifi can[...]

Gentle Acceleration The testing procedures utilize gentle acceleration, which does not represent the way pe ople actually drive anym ore. For exam ple, when m erging ont o a highwa y now, m uch more hars h acceleration i s required. The tests don’t reflect the MPG penalty that causes. So unless you acceleration as slowly as when the test was perf[...]

Seasonal Cycles Vehicle Types Seasonal cycles affect all types of vehicles, not just hybrid. But with Prius, you are much more aware of the MPG changes due to having a Multi-Di splay constantly informing you of efficiency performance. With traditi onal vehicles, o wners typically are not aware how much of an affect climate has on their vehicle’s [...]

Emissions Prius Prius (HS D model) has ea rned a CARB emission rati ng of: AT-PZ EV Categories Just because a vehicle is labeled as a "Hybrid", that does not m ean the vehicle is actually any cleaner. In fac t, some hybri ds emit the same am ount of smog- related poll ution as a c ommon traditional vehicle. CARB (California Air Resources [...]

NURT URING Filling the Gas Tank Fill Speed It is best t o use the slowest setting (t he farthest latch on t he pump-han dle); othe rwise, the pum p could shut off prem aturely giving you an i naccurate indication of "full". Topping Off D on't! Once the pump aut omatically stops, don't trying squeezing any more gas 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 wi th vapor as gasoline is consumed. T he reduction of vapor em issions hel ps to keep Prius extraord inarily clean. Overfilling should be avoided, since adding gas after the pump automatically sto ps can create[...]

Polishing Owner Tests "Nu Finish" has worked well. The great polished look lasts for ab out 6 months, enough to ge t through an entire winter. But when you wipe the dried residue off, it actually leaves lightly faded streaks at first. Don't let that deter you. It di sappears, leaving a protective layer after a few days. Tire Care To [...]

PSI convenience Tire pressure needs to be routinely chec ked (for all vehicles , not just Prius). Temperature drops cause PSI to decrease. Heat ca used by driving increases PSI, m aking measurements ina ccurate until cool. MPG & Safety are directly dependent on properly maintained PSI. Prius owners have found a way to make this simple: use a co[...]

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 comes firs t. 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. It simply isn't exposed to the st[...]

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. If the oil-level is beyond "full", insist that they remove the [...]

Window Wipers Front Blades Replacing the t wo wiper bla des (every 30,000 to 35 ,000 miles) in the front is surprisingly easy. You don’t even hav e to remove the wiper assembly fr om the car (though you can, if you wan t). Just carefully squeeze the rubber at the far left (shown above) an d pull inward a little bit. It will bend just enough to al[...]

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 bot h sides out an d slide it toward you. With that plastic off, the access to the blade is now possible. You can lift the arm up to get at the undersi de of i[...]

Air-Conditioning Filter Access There is a hepa filter for the Air-Conditioning system behind the glove-box : Open the bottom glove-b ox, and then remove all the co ntents (since they will end up falling out all over the fl oor othe rwise). To the right of glove-box is an attached small plastic hydra ulic arm (to add a resistance feel). Pull on that[...]
