Video tutorial

In this video, we see what to do if your Renault or Dacia card (like on a Sandero as shown in the video) runs out of battery and you can't enter the car. Don't worry: slide the part with the logo of the card and you will discover that inside there is an emergency key and a button battery.

Using the key, lever the end of the driver's door handle: under the plastic cover, there is a standard lock, which can be opened with the key itself.

If you have a new CR2032, you can now replace it and get going; otherwise, simply place the card in the designated slot in the centre console, at the base of the dashboard, and press the start button.

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.
