Emergency Gas Tank Door Opening

Hi everyone,
I can't find any device in the fuse compartment in the cargo area to open the gas tank door in case it doesn't open from outside the normal way. The same is for my 2006 ML500, & 2008 ML350. Any guidance will be appreciated.
Thanks,

This place is a joke.
It's there, you have to reach up inside the side panelling near the gas door.

Don't you have an owner's manual?
