    I read that if you have to park your Prius for an extended length of time, you should press the disable button to avoid the batteries going flat.
    Where is this button?? Sounds like a great thing.

    Some (not all) Gen II cars have a small button under the steering wheel that turns off the SKS (smart key system). That reduces battery drain to some extent.
