To open the fuel cap on a Ford Fiesta, you need to turn off the engine and unlock the vehicle's locks, as the fuel flap is connected to the central locking system. Next, simply press on the back side of the flap to open it. Once opened, unscrew the fuel cap by turning it counterclockwise and you can hook it onto the designated support on the flap during refuelling.

At the end of the operation, screw the cap back on clockwise until fully tightened and close the flap by applying light pressure, ensuring it remains securely locked.
