Where is the fuel tank cap opening on the Lavida?

Lavida's fuel tank cap switch is located on the left side of the fuel tank cap, and pressing it will pop it open. The fuel tank cap refers to the box on the car used to store gasoline. It is square in shape, made of stainless steel, and has excellent sealing. The Lavida is an A-class car independently developed by Shanghai Volkswagen, with a body length, width, and height of 4605mm, 1765mm, and 1460mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. In terms of appearance, the front face design of the Lavida is significantly different from previous A-class cars under the Volkswagen brand, especially its unique teardrop-shaped headlight design, which incorporates the traditional Volkswagen family grille and U-shaped front face styling.
I've driven a Lavida for five years. The fuel tank cap switch is located under the dashboard on the left side of the driver's seat, marked with a fuel pump icon. Just give it a gentle pull to open. In newer models, you can simply press the side of the fuel tank cap after unlocking the car, which is quite user-friendly. Remember, it's safer to operate after turning off the engine. Once at a gas station, I encountered a new car owner who couldn't open the fuel tank—turned out they hadn't unlocked the doors. While refueling, it's a good idea to check the rubber seal for cracks; if it's aged, dust might get in, potentially affecting fuel quality. Also, avoid using a high-pressure water jet directly on the cap's seams during car washes, as it could damage the mechanical latch.
