How to Open and Close the Fuel Tank Cap of the New Sylphy?
2 Answers
Sylphy's fuel tank cap can be opened by pulling the switch located at the bottom left of the dashboard, near the driver's knee when seated in the driving position. More details about the Sylphy are as follows: 1. The Sylphy is a compact sedan with a maximum engine horsepower of 135 HP and a maximum torque of 159 Nm, equipped with a CVT transmission. 2. The Sylphy measures 4641mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1450mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2712mm. It has a top speed of 186 km/h and a fuel tank capacity of 47L. 3. The vehicle features front-wheel drive, with a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I've been driving the new Sylphy for two or three years, and operating the fuel tank cap is quite straightforward. Here are the steps: First, sit in the driver's seat and locate a lever near the door on the left side, usually made of plastic. Gently pull it upward, and you'll hear a click indicating it's unlocked. Then, get out of the car, walk to the fuel tank at the rear, and press the middle part of the fuel cap—it will pop open. After refueling, manually press it back until you hear a locking sound to ensure it's securely closed. Remember, the engine must be turned off during refueling to avoid any hazards. A loose cap may lead to fuel evaporation or trigger the check light, so always make sure it's tightly closed after refueling. I find the Sylphy's design very user-friendly, requiring no extra keys or complicated steps—it's quite hassle-free. Periodically, you can also clean the dust around the cap to maintain smooth operation.
