I almost has to be near the fuel filler door. Try pulling the trunk liner out in that area and I think you will see it. It should also be pictured in your owner's manual.

From memory, there isn't a fuel filler release in the trunk, and I can't find one in the online manual I looked at. It says to "consult a technician" if the filler door doesn't release when the doors are unlocked!

I had a look at the CLS and it does seem to have one, which is a bit surprising because it is based on the E, anway I have scanned that bit of the manual in case it is any good to you.
