    Does anyone know if the valet card can be had in Spanish? Most of the valets where I live (south florida) are from South/Central America and while most do speak English it would be nicer if I could hand them something in Spanish. Is the Prius on sale in Mexico? I think I'll try heading over to the toyota spain site to...

    I asked at the dealership as well, but they said that's all that was shipped to the USA.

    If somone wants to do a translation, I could probably drop it into a scanned version of the car and upload it here for folks to print out on cardstock or just heavy paper.

    On a side note, I just left my car with a valet yesterday. It wasn't the nicest neighborhood so I let him take it. I turned off the smart start/entry and handed him the keys and the little card, and he seemed insulted. Apparently this little restaurant near the movie studios in Hollywood has already seen enough of the '04 Prius that all the valets already knew how to handle it!

    Rough Spanish translation:

    Starting: El comenzar

    Valet instructions - Instrucciones de Valet

    1) Insert key - Llave de relleno

    2) Depress brake pedal and press "Power" button - Presione el pedal de freno y presione el botón de la "Power"

    3) You may begin driving after the "Ready" light remains on - Usted puede comenzar a conducir después de que siga habiendo la luz del "Ready"encendido

    Shifting - El cambiar de puesto

    1) Depress the brake pedal - Presione el pedal de freno

    3) Check display to confirm shift position - Compruebe la exhibición para confirmar la posición de la cambio

    Parking - Estacionamiento

    1) Press "P" Park button - Presione el botón del parque de "P"

    2) Press "Power" button - Presione el botón de la "Power"

    3) Pull out key - Saque la llave

    cybele, can you photoshop all of that into the Valet card for us?

    I'll give it a try - I probably can't get to it until Wednesday though. I'll keep you posted.

    Where's the regular valet card? I got it this morning but the right side wouldn't print and now it's gone from the library.

    I just got my Prius yesterday, and I don't see that I was given a valet card at all. Should I be requesting one from my dealer?

    hoferchr,

    I was given a whole pad of valet cards with my Prius. Of course there were very few people at the dealership that actually knew what they were for.

    As it stands right now, I doubt that I would even allow anyone else to drive my car!!

    I'll park it myself ... thank you very much.... :?
