Where is the fuel filler cap button located on the Hongqi H5?
2 Answers
The fuel filler cap button of the Hongqi H5 is located on the fuel tank cover. When the vehicle is unlocked, pressing the fuel tank cover will cause it to pop open. If the vehicle is locked, there will be no response. The press-to-open fuel tank door is currently the most convenient type. Precautions for pop-open switches: When not refueling, remember to always engage the central locking system, otherwise the fuel tank cap can be opened, which is very dangerous. Other opening methods: The in-car switch is currently the most common way to open the fuel tank door, and is certainly more convenient compared to using a key. The in-car switch is located in different positions depending on the vehicle model—some are on the floor to the left of the driver's seat, some on the left front door panel, or on the center console, all marked with a fuel pump icon. However, be aware that the in-car switch can easily lead to the owner forgetting to turn off the engine before refueling, so always remember to turn off the engine before refueling.
I've been driving the Hongqi H5 for several years, and the fuel filler door release button is typically located on the floor near the driver's left knee area. It's easy to find: just sit in the driver's seat, look down near your legs, and you'll spot the small button marked with a fuel pump icon near the door frame. I simply press it when refueling, and the cap pops open—a very user-friendly design. This placement avoids the steering wheel to prevent accidental presses while remaining conveniently accessible during driving. If you can't locate it at first, don't worry—check along the seat edge or refer to the owner's manual. If pressing it doesn't work, ensure doors are unlocked or check the fuse. Always remember to turn off the engine during refueling, avoid placing objects on the cap, and keep it clean to prolong its lifespan. The well-thought-out positioning makes daily use hassle-free.
