    Hello,

    I'm a new 08 Prius owner. Love the car so far, but I screwed up and can't figure out how to back track.

    I tried the "screen off" button and the screen turned off. It now turns on temporarily when a button is pressed, but turns off again a few seconds later. I want it back to normal but can't figure out how. I've tried searching this forum and can't seem to find the right search terms, if it's been covered before. And the manual doesn't seem to help either.

    Any help?

    Press the Info button on the right side of the screen.
    Select Trip Info.

    You can also just push the "info" button on the steering wheel and it will turn the display back on.

    Thanks, that did it. I was looking for a "screen on" button I guess.
    Not sure I would have figured that out in a timely fashion on my own.

    Same thing happened to me the third day with mine. Luckily my salesman called to see how I was doing so he helped me get the screen back on:D.
