Opening/closing the fuel filler door
A button on the instrument panel is used to unlock the fuel filler door.
Press the button on the dashboard.
Pressure equalization in the fuel tank causes a slight delay before the fuel filler door opens. The message Preparing for refuel Fuel lid will be unlocked when ready will appear in the instrument panel. When the system is ready, the message Ready for refueling will be shown. If the gasoline engine is activated when the button is pressed, it will usually be deactivated and the vehicle will switch to electric propulsion.
Note
Refueling must be done within approximately 15 minutes of opening the fuel filler door. After this time, the valve opened by pushing the button for opening the fuel filler door will close and it will no longer be possible to refuel without the pump's nozzle switching off.
If the valve is closed before refueling is complete - press the button again and wait until the driver display shows the message Ready for refueling.
After refueling, press the fuel filler door lightly to close it.
