    For one, in Canada, the headlights are used as the daylight running lights, but the in U.S., they are separate.

    Do you have the Auto on the light switch?
    Mine doesn't have Auto.
    It has DRL position seperate from the Headlights position, but the DRLs are on with the Headlights.

    Note that I am not in Canada. There was a thread somewhere about how DRL are required in countries at high latitudes, and the subject of how they are installed came up.

    Bad link - the correct one is http://priuschat.com/forums/toyota-prius-plug-in/103349-owners-manual-pip-out.html#post1468408 .

    I had already posted a version with fixed page numbers and bookmarks (see this post above), but yours are better. I'll edit my post to point to yours.

    Anyone want to fix the clickable page references? Only the ones pointing within the original manual sections work.

    I can't access the owners manual ryogajyc posted to Google. It wants me to sign up for something, which I'm not going to do.

    Does anyone have the whole PDF owners manual in one file that I could access from elsewhere? Or can someone email it to me?

    The manuals are public and do not require a signing in. If you see a sign-in screen, look for a sign out link, then try the manual link again. I believe it is remembering a previous sign-in (for convenience) and then prompting for the password for security.

    Here is a good video on using the PIP Tire Repair Kit and 12V Tire Inflator included. Seems the included 12V Tire Inflator (which label says was made for use with the PIP) could be used without the sealant to temporarily inflate the tire more.
