Where's the filler flap release on my Swift?

I have a Suzuki Swift 2005 model. First car, first time filling up with petrol.

I don't know how to open my petrol cap! Does anyone know if there is a lever inside the car somewhere? Or do you have to push it? I tried pushing the cap but it hasn't sprung open. Not sure what to do.

Will be a lever on the floor just in front of the right hand side driver's seat runner. You pull it up.
