Washing
Antenna Removing the antenna is easy; just unscrew it (counter-clockwise). Then you don't have to worry
about it while going through an automatic car wash.
Valet Use
Valet Card Providing the valet with a "Valet Card" Toyota includes with the purchase of a new Prius is highly
recommended. It illustrates how to start the hybrid system in very simple steps.
Engine On Stealth can confuse valet drivers, since they expect noise & vibration rather than dead silence.
Keeping the engine running could prevent a mishap. Valets may repeatedly try to start the Prius not
realizing it's already running. Or worse, they may get out while the Prius is still in "D" (Drive)
because they think it’s off. To minimize this risk, set the defroster to the maximum cold or hot
setting. This forces the engine to continue running.
