Fuel Flap?

Hi. I own a 2001 Mercedes Benz C320 and I recently got it as a gift from my parents. I need to go fuel it up but we don't know how to open the fuel flap. Does anyone know how to?

It's only locked when the car is locked.

Hahahaha. My grandfather could not figure out how the hell to open the gas flap the first time he went to fill his car (not my car). Even the gas station attendant couldn't figure it out. For that matter, neither could my step dad on his 2000 C230. He kept pushing buttons and ended up calling the road assistance people. The lady came on and said hi, to which he replied, "Who the hell are you?"
