To open the fuel flap on an Opel Astra, unlock the car's locks using the button on the remote: once the central locking is disengaged, gently press the side of the flap. This will unlock the mechanism, allowing you to open the flap: the cap underneath can then be unscrewed for refuelling.

After removing the cap, you can refuel, then close the cap and the flap.
