    If you are talking on your cell though the bluetooth on the JBL radio and you arrive at your destination, is there anyway to shut off the Prius without hanging up on the person on the phone?

    My Phone has a Cancel button to turn off the speakerphone (and revert back to the mic/speaker in the phone).

    An earlier phone had a headset on/off button.

    Yours should have a way to turn off the handsfree...

    Yes.

    Once you reach your destination and you are stopped, press the INFO/PHONE button, then you should see on the lower right hand side of the touch screen the activated "TRANSFER" button.

    Press this button, and the call will transfer to the telephone.

    At least that's how it works if you have a Nav screen.

    I do it all the time - through my phone. It allows you to press a button to talk through phone instead of via bluetooth.

    If I am talking on my cell through the car bluetooth connection, I can do either:
    1. Turn off my vehicle by pressing the power button. The cell swithches to it's speaker. I dial all my calls from the cell phone, maybe that's why.
    2. On my radio, when I press the power off button, the radio or the bluetooth speaker connection stays on for about 2-3 seconds. If I quickly press the power button again in this 2-3 second delay, without my foot on the brake, I'm now in ACC mode and can continue my conversation via car speakers or listen to radio without interruption from powering off.

    Just turn the car off like normal. The phone doesnt know anything except that the bluetooth connection was lost, so it just reverts back to normal operating mode.

    I think the OP wants to continue the call on the car's speaker after car is shut down.

    why not just put it in park and leave the car on if you want to keep it on the cars speakers. It shouldn't waste that much electricity.
