Volvo fuel tank allow pumping gas into tank?

Most Volvo models have a hands-free fuel system, which means that you can open and close the fuel tank cap without touching it. To do this, simply slide your fuel card or key fob over the fuel tank cap and lift up. The fuel tank cap will open automatically. When you are finished refueling, simply close the fuel tank cap by pressing down on it. The fuel tank cap will lock automatically.

If your Volvo model does not have a hands-free fuel system, you will need to use the key to open the fuel tank cap. To do this, insert the key into the fuel tank cap and turn it counterclockwise. The fuel tank cap will pop up. When you are finished refueling, simply close the fuel tank cap by pushing it down and turning the key clockwise. The fuel tank cap will lock automatically.

Here are some tips for refueling your Volvo:

* Make sure that you are using the correct fuel type. Your Volvo requires unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 91.

* Do not overfill the fuel tank. This can cause the fuel to leak out and create a fire hazard.

* If you spill any fuel, clean it up immediately. Fuel is flammable and can easily catch fire.

* Never smoke while refueling your Volvo. This is a serious fire hazard.

By following these simple tips, you can help to ensure that your Volvo is safe to refuel.
