Video tutorial

In this video, we can see how to change the battery of the Citroen DS3 remote control (but the same procedure is also valid for the DS4): with a small screwdriver, we gently pry on the metal part to remove the cover. Once this operation is done, we can split the body of the remote control in two halves, in order to expose the part with the battery.

This is held in place by a sort of metal cage, but it will be enough to gently push it out. It is a CR1620 battery that we can easily find in any supermarket or electronics store; put it back in its cage, close the two halves of the remote control body and put the metal cover back in place.

The operation is complete.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
