Avoid any arrows coming from the battery.
Do you have a scangauge? Anyway a good trick is to make sure that your in stage 4 of prius operation (coolant must be at least 70c, and your engine must be idling for 5 seconds at a very low speed (below 7mph) without you hitting the gas. If the engine turns off, then your now in stage 4.
Without stage 4, your engine idles from 0mph to 35mph. You can usually tell if your in stage 4 or not if the engine "refuses" to turn off at 0-35mph when your not at a stop.
