I just bought a 2008 Prius yesterday. The dealer said he thought it was a level III but isn't sure. It has a back-up camera, MP3 port, smart key, and bluetooth. I was learning all of my buttons last night and noticed htere is a map button on the steering wheel. When i press it, the screen says "external device not connected" What does this mean? Do I have navigation in this vehicle? Do I have to buy another piece to make it work? Thanks for my assitance
Hi TD, Can't answer your question, but here's the 2008 Prius eBrochure which lists the equipment that is standard and in the different option packages: http://www.toyotacertified.com/ebrochures/08_prius.pdf I know that Navigation only comes in Option Package #5 and #6.
If you push the "Map" button and the GPS screen doesn't come up . . . then no you don't have navigation. Don't sweat it though the Prius Navigation System isn't that great. Go get yourself a Garmin/TomTom/Magellan with free traffic and you will be much better off.
