Hi,

I just added the following:

""Check engine" light indicates something is wrong even if it is a minor problem. If you do not have an OBD scanner, it is best to drive or have the car towed to a Toyota service center and have them read the codes. Turning the car OFF and ON three times can sometimes clear the indication and code but it is better to know what happened.

In the NHW20 Prius, a maintenance required light will come on after 5,000 miles indicating it is time to change the oil. This can be cleared, check the owner's manual. "

Feel free to post improvements, suggestions or editing changes in this thread and I'll add the improvements by editing the FAQ.

Thanks,
Bob Wilson
