Below we will see the instructions that will allow us to open the fuel tank flap of the Volkswagen Polo, in simple steps. First of all, we get on board the car and start unlocking all the door locks (this can also be done with the remote control); then we move to the outside, as well as to the fuel tank flap, and press on the edge to open it and access the tank, as shown in the video.

At this point, we refuel, finally closing the fuel tank flap until it clicks; in this case, it is the same fuel tank flap that acts as a cap for the tank.
