    Mine came on when I went over my 5000 mile oil change/service and it
    was off after I had it done. I assumed they reset it for me at the
    dealership. If you're doing oil change, etc., yourself, perhaps you
    could talk to them and find out how it's done. I'd be interested
    myself, so thanks for the question.

    At 4500 miles since last reset, the Maint Reqd light will blink at you
    on startup. At 5000 miles since last reset, the Maint Reqd light will
    stay on solid.

    It's just a reminder by miles that you are due for the next scheduled
    maintenance. It is not smart (doesn't go by time, or do any oil
    analysis), just a mile counter. Usually that is an oil change/tire
    rotation: http://smg.toyotapartsandservice.com/

    Should your dealer forget to reset it, or you go to an independent
    mechanic or DIY, you can reset the light yourself.

    Page 122-123 of the US 2004 Prius Owner's Manual (Section 2-5
    "Operation of Instruments and Controls: Gauges, Meters and Service
    Reminder Indicators", item (j) in the "Service reminder indicators and
    warning buzzers" section.)
