Child Lock Back Door?

Flip the lever on the back lip of the door, just as you do with any other new car.

Look in the owners manual under "rear door lock protectors". There's a nice picture of it there. At the same time you may want to peruse the manual for other tidbits about your car.

 

Chachabah16,

Welcome here!! First of all, the rear doors have to be opened in order to see the levers (as do all the other cars that have this feature), but on the Prius they are not as obvious because there isn't a big hole/slot in the door with a bright shiney piece of metal protruding from the dark hole. On the Prius, instead of a hole there is a shiney black plastic oval contain'g a shiney black plastic lever (in the up position for normal exit, in the down position to keep the child in). These are at the back side of the doors & are verticle ovals about 1 inch long by 1/2 inch wide & have a horizontal rectangular sticker about twice that size with mostly black but some red printing on it above each lever (both of these being just below the door latch slot). I hope this helps.

Edit : P.S. By all means, take Jeff's advice & read the whole manual as soon as you can get the chance.

Thanks

Had the same problem, my used prius came with the rear doors disabled and I didn't know how to undo them. Fixed!

And I plan on reading the owners manual, but it might take me some time - it's really dry reading. They need to spice it up a bit.
