Lift the bonnet and place the support rod. As shown in the video, to remove the upper protective cover of the battery (which is divided into two parts), simply pull it off by hand with some force. Start by disconnecting the negative terminal (not the positive as done in the video; always start with the negative terminal): unscrew it with an 8 mm spanner.

Only after this, disconnect the positive terminal by opening its fastening clip. At this point, also open the clips that hold the battery in its place.

Remove it, insert the new battery, and reconnect the terminals.

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.
