    My IV came with a DVD that explains many functions including the hybrid system, keyless entry, EV-EVO-PWR modes, etc. About an hour long. I am asking this because I see questions about things that are explained in the DVD. This leads me to believe that people are not watching it or did not get it with the car.

    Yes, I received a DVD which was attached to the instruction manual with a rubber band. I have a 2010 Prius V w/Adv. Tech. I agree, the DVD is very informative and it does explain a lot of the function of the 2010 Prius.

    Huh? Guys not reading instructions??? C'mon - we pour over every written word and document before operating anything.... :rolleyes:

    Yep, I did see the DVD attached with the owners manual, but haven't watched it yet. I would think that much of the info had been posted on uTube as had been linked here a few weeks ago.
    Thanks for the reminder - I will check it out as well.

    If people read the manual and watched the DVD, we wouldn't have much to write about on this forum. :D

    Some questions are so common I have the answers mapped to hot keys on my computer.

    I finally watched parts of the DVD yesterday. I read all the manuals that came with the car (all ~1,000 pages :eek:), and assumed the DVD contained the instructional vids from the youtube channel (which it does not). If you've read the manuals, I don't think it's worthwhile, since it's very basic and drawn out. I think it's more for people who don't want to read anything and get a very basic understanding of the car (emphasis on very ;)).
