 Eric,
I use my Prius 2G display reset button after each fill up to keep track of full tank fuel economy. Note this will not reset if you fill with something like three gallons or less.
The following information may answer your question regarding the availabilty of different trip meters. I have taken the following, exactly quoted from the 2004 Prius owner's manual, page 115:
"This meter displays the odometer and two trip meters.
1. Odometer--shows the total distance the vehicle has been drivern.
2. Two trip meters--show two different distances independently driven since the last time each trip meter was set to zero.
You can use one trip meter to calculate the fuel economy and the other to measure the distance on each trip. Alll trip meter data is cancelled if the electrical power source is disconnected.
3. Trip meter reset button--resets the two trip meters to zero, and also change the meter display. To change the meter display, quickly push and release the button. The meter display changes in the order from the odometer to trip meter A to trip meter B, then back to the odometer each time you push.
To reset the trip meter A to zero, display the meter A reading, then push and hold the button until the meter is set to zero. The same process can be applied for resetting the trip meter B."
Hope this helps.
