Where is the fuel filler switch on the Ford Mondeo?
2 Answers
On the Ford Mondeo, the fuel filler switch can be opened by directly pressing the outer fuel tank cover when the central control is unlocked. This vehicle features a design without an inner fuel tank cap, allowing the fuel nozzle to be inserted directly during refueling. The fuel tank has a capacity of 62L and can only be filled with 92-octane or higher unleaded gasoline. The dimensions of the Ford Mondeo are 4873mm in length, 1852mm in width, and 1470mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2850mm. In terms of exterior design, this model has been redesigned in areas such as the grille, front fog lights, and wheel rims. The grille has been changed to a mesh pattern, and chrome trim has been added to the tail lights to enhance texture and sportiness, with no significant changes to other parts. In terms of configuration, the Intelligent Control Luxury version of this model will add features such as ACC Full-Speed Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, LKA Lane Keeping Assist System, Intelligent Brake Assist with Collision Warning, and Automatic Parking Assist.
As someone who frequently drives a Mondeo, let me share a little trick for finding the fuel tank switch. Ford's design is quite unique—there's no separate fuel cap button. Once you're seated in the driver's seat, simply bend down and look near your left foot, in the area between the door frame and the seat. At the very bottom of the door panel, there's a small icon of a fuel pump. It feels soft to the touch—just press it firmly. Remember to turn off the engine or shift to P mode! Last time, my friend couldn't open it no matter what, only to realize the car doors weren't unlocked—this car has a safety feature where the fuel cap can only be opened when the entire car is unlocked. Oh, and if you can't find the button, it might be covered by the floor mat—just lift it up and check.
