    When using the Reset Tire Pressure Light (TPMS) button on my 2010 Prius, I noticed an “Off” button to the right of it.
    Can’t find any information about it.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Push that button to mute annoying passengers.
    Other than that I have no idea what it’s for.

    Is it a 2010 Prius V w/ AT package? That’s probably the PCS OFF button IIRC.

    If you press it (while the car is in IG-ON or Ready mode), you should see either a yellow “PCS OFF” light or a yellow icon with two cars and a “crash” symbol between them and the word “OFF”.

    ✔Nice!

    That makes sense. It's a 2010 Prius with AT package, not sure V or IV - never figured that out. It gives Pre-Collision warnings if I drive too closely or quickly to a vehicle ahead.

    It’ll be the V. It’s the only one available with the AT package. IV was available with the Nav or SR (solar roof) package.
