How to Open the Fuel Tank Cap of Trumpchi?
2 Answers
Because Trumpchi uses a mechanical lock, the fuel tank cap is opened with a button. As long as it is a model with a mechanical lock, you can open the fuel tank cap via the button inside the car. The location of the fuel tank cap switch is below the left side of the steering wheel, which is the far left of the driver's control panel. Pressing the button will automatically pop open the fuel tank cap, which is located on the side of the co-driver. Many novice drivers often get confused when entering a gas station. The press-to-open fuel tank door is currently a very convenient method. After the owner parks the car, the gas attendant can directly refuel.
As a GAC Motor owner, let me share how to open the fuel tank cap. The usual method is quite simple: First, sit in the driver's seat and check if the key is properly inserted or if the doors are unlocked. Then, look down at the corner near your left foot for a small lever or button. Gently pull or press it, and the fuel tank cap will pop open automatically. At this point, exit the vehicle, go to the fuel filler neck, press the cap, and turn it clockwise to fully open it. If you can't find the lever, there might be a fuel tank icon button on the panel to the left of the steering wheel—just press it. Different GAC Motor models like the GS4 and GA8 might have slight design variations, so it's advisable to ensure the engine is turned off before refueling to prevent safety risks. During routine maintenance, take a moment to check if the fuel tank cap's sealing ring is worn out to avoid water ingress. These small details can save you a lot of trouble.
