Getting to Know Your VUE

In the following two situations, when a
door is opened, all doors will lock again:
• The brake pedal is applied, a door is
opened and closed, and the brake
pedal is released.
• A door is opened and closed without
the brake pedal applied while the
vehicle is moving more than 3 mph
(5 km/h).
Manual Transaxle-Equipped Vehicles:
If your VUE has a manual transaxle, all
doors will automatically lock when the
vehicle is traveling over 3 mph (5 km/h),
the ignition key is in the Run position
and all the doors are closed.
If you need to get in or out of the vehicle
after the doors have automatically
locked, unlock all the doors using a
power door lock switch or unlock the
door you want using the manual door
lock control.
Programmable Automatic Door
Unlocking
You can activate and deactivate the
unlocking feature by turning the ignition
key to Run (with engine off) and press-
ing the Unlock portion of the power door
lock switch for eight
seconds.
If the horn chirps
once after pressing
the power door lock
switch, the automatic
door unlocking fea-
ture will operate. If
the horn chirps twice
after pressing the switch, the unlocking
feature will not operate.
When this feature is activated, all doors
will unlock when the key is removed
from the ignition.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Removing and Securing the
Fuel Cap
To remove your vehicle's fuel cap, turn it
to the left about half a turn.
To reinstall the cap after filling your tank,
turn the cap to the right (clockwise)
about a quarter turn until you hear at
least three clicks. An improperly installed
fuel cap may cause a fuel vapor leak,
or cause your vehicle's Service Engine
Soon Light (Malfunction Indicator Lamp)
to illuminate.
Note: If the "Service Engine Soon"
light is flashing, bring your vehicle in
for diagnosis and service as soon as
possible. Depending on the cause of
the alert, if you continue driving, this
could cause damage to your vehicle's
emission control system.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.

Fuel Economy

Your VUE's fuel economy rating can
be found on your driver's side window
sticker. Your actual mileage may vary
depending upon vehicle options, driving
habits and conditions, and the vehicle's
overall condition.
