Fuel Filler Door - Hyundai i20 Owner's Manual

Fuel filler door

Opening the fuel filler door
1. Turn the engine off.
2. Ensure the driver's door is unlocked.
3. Push the fuel filler door gently on
the "markings" (near the 3o'clock
position.)
3. Pull the fuel filler door out (1) to fully
open.
4. To remove the fuel tank cap (2), turn
it counterclockwise. You may hear a
hissing noise as the pressure inside
the tank equalizes.
5. Place the cap on the fuel filler door (3).
WARNING
• Your diesel vehicle is equipped with
the specially-designed breakaway
valve inside the filler inlet to prevent
accidental fuel blending with petrol.
The fuel inlet of your diesel vehicle
cannot be fitted with a standard
petrol nozzle. Do not forcefully insert
a standard petrol nozzle into the filler
inlet of your diesel vehicle. It may
damage your vehicle.
• Some gas stations may still use
standard petrol nozzles for diesel
refueling. If you find that a diesel
OBC3050027 OBC3050027
nozzle is narrower than the fuel
filler inlet diameter of your diesel
vehicle, we recommend you to find/
visit another gas station, which
is equipped with standard diesel
nozzles.
• Fully insert a standard diesel nozzle
into the filler inlet to open the
breakaway valve. If the nozzle is not
fully inserted into the filler inlet, it
causes diesel fuels to flow out of the
fuel tank.
Information
i
If the fuel filler door does not open
because ice has formed around it, tap
lightly or push on the door to break the
ice and release the door. Do not pry on the
OBI3050016 OBI3050016
door. If necessary, spray around the door
with an approved de-icer fluid (do not use
radiator anti-freeze) or move the vehicle
to a warm place and allow the ice to melt.
