Vital Info  Ignore the advanced technology!
It's too easy to get preoccupied with everything Prius automatically does for you, especially with
the Multi-Display providing constant performance information.  The hybrid system was designed
so you could to drive it like a traditional car.  That way, you can enjoy the remarkably smooth &
quiet ride.  Let the computer worry about how to save gas and reduce emissions.
Engine Warm-Up  Reducing Emissions is the highest priority for Prius.  It strives to remain a SULEV (Super Ultra
Low Emission Vehicle) at all times, which means the catalytic-converter must be kept warm even if
that requires consuming some gas to accomplish that.  Fortunately, you still get better than average
mileage, even if the engine doesn't shut off right away.
Winter Heat  Creating heat for the emissions system and heat to keep you warm is fastest and most efficient if you simply drive gently immediately after starting the Prius in the winter.  Allowing the engine to
run while the Prius is parked takes longer and is less efficient.  "Just Drive It!"
Turning the Key  The user-manual states to turn the key and hold it until you hear a beep.  Realistically, you can
actually let go of the key immediately.  Once the computer accepts your request, the engine will
start-up after preparation is complete.  Think of it as clicking a button on a computer-mouse.  The
catch is you must still wait for the "READY" prompt before shifting into Reverse or Drive.
Blue Light  The blue light, which looks like a thermometer in liquid, is located to the right of the speedometer.
It indicates the engine is still cool.  This is normal during engine warm-up, it is not a warning.  It
will usually disappear about in 5 minutes, depending on the outside temperature and if the Prius
was recently used.  Driving slowly immediately after startup, rather than just waiting while parked,
is the most efficiently method of reducing warm-up time.  Idling until warm-up is complete before
driving takes longer and wastes gas.
Remote Confirm  Use the remote when leaving your Prius.  Clicking the "lock" button on it will confirm that all the
doors really did get shut all the way.  If they didn't, the internal overhead light may remain on.  That
will drain the small 12-volt auxiliary battery if left that way long enough in a 2001 or 2002 Prius.
Beginning with the 2003 model, the light will automatically shut itself off even if a door is left ajar.
