    I was looking at the manual and some things I couldn't do with my 2010 Prius III. I noticed that there was only one button (the long one) as opposed to the two seen in the manual above the back license plate (trunk door). I wanted to be able to unlock all five doors by pressing that button, but it doesn't seem to work.

    Then, I proceeded to try setting the keyless unlocking so that when I put my hand on the passenger door, it would unlock all doors, which does not work either. Did I miss read this or is it not available to all packages?

    Thanks, I couldn't find an answer by searching. So anything would be helpful.

    Unfortunately the Prius III only has SKS on the driver's door.

    Prius I no smart key system
    Prius II and III smart key system on driver's door only
    Prius IV and V smart key system on 3 doors

    ^ What Tumbleweed said. 3-dr SKS is only available on IV and V models.

    Although he should be able to have all doors unlock when the driver's door is unlocked via SKS. My base model T3 does it. Or maybe this is different for you guys?

    Yep, that's doable on our models too.

    Thanks guys, for some reason I thought the manual was specifically for my package Prius only, but it's a general one for all Prius'. :)
