Turn car from [ON] to [Accessories Mode]

iseven · 04-06-2007, 01:56 PM

I just got my 2007 Prius (pkg #2) 2 weeks ago. With regular gas cars, you are able to turn back the key 1 notch on the ignition to just leave the radio and fan on. How do I do this with the Prius wihtout having to press the POWER BUTTON [OFF] then back [ON] again without the brake pedal pressed in?

Thanks in advance =)

thanks for helping out a noob. i'll try that.

and just to make sure, this is when the car is already [ON] and in [Park], correct?

Well if the car is on and in the ready mode it is allready for you to just turn on the radio.

if you park and press the power button it will shut off, then press power button once no foot n brake will get you to the acc for radio if press again windows can work

hope that helps

You don't.

I do not believe you can do that...

Betelgeuse · 04-06-2007, 05:17 PM

From "Off," you can either go to "ACC" (foot off brake) or "Ready" (foot on brake).
From "ACC," you can either go to "IG-ON" (foot off brake) or "Ready" (foot on brake).
From "IG-ON," you can either go to "Off" (foot off brake) or "Ready (foot on brake).
From "Ready," you can only go to "Off" (foot either on or off brake).

Actually, you can go from READY to ACC. But I don't think you're going to like it...

You have to do it when the car is moving. Hold down the POWER button for three seconds. You'll drop into ACC mode (and Neutral).

yeah. That whole "push the power button twice with your foot OFF the brake pedal" is just SUCH an inconvenience.
