Where is the fuel tank switch of the Buick Excelle?
2 Answers
The fuel tank switch button of the Buick Excelle is located at the bottom left side of the driver's seat. Lift it upward and release to open the fuel filler cap. The Buick Excelle fuel gauge has eight bars, and the fuel tank capacity is 44 liters. If the fuel level is too low, the fuel control indicator will light up. If the indicator flashes, refuel immediately and do not let the fuel tank run empty. Below is an introduction to the car's fuel system: 1. Before adding fuel, turn off the engine switch and ensure all doors and windows are closed. The fuel type is unleaded gasoline, and ethanol gasoline with an ethanol content of up to 10% is allowed. 2. The fuel type is unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 92 or higher. Use ethanol gasoline with an ethanol content of up to 10%, ensuring the octane rating of the ethanol gasoline meets the above standards. 3. Frequently mixing gasoline from Sinopec and PetroChina, the two major brands, may lead to carbon deposits and affect engine performance due to differences in their processes, standards, and additives.
In my Buick Excelle, the fuel tank release lever is actually quite easy to find. It's located on the floor in the driver's footwell area to the left, marked with a small fuel droplet or gas station icon. When I first got the car, I was confused too, but later discovered its ergonomic design - positioned within easy reach for quick fuel door release without exiting the vehicle. Most modern cars arrange interior switches this way to prevent accidental operation by children, enhancing safety. When refueling, simply turn off the engine, pull the lever, then operate the fuel filler door. If you can't locate it at first, don't worry - crouch down for a closer look or check the owner's manual diagrams. Remember to keep the switch area clean and free of dust buildup. Once you get used to it, operating becomes effortless.
