To disable the Start/Stop system in a Fiat 500X, get in the vehicle and start the engine or simply turn on the ignition. On the central console, near the gear lever, locate the button with the letter 'A' surrounded by an arrow.

Press the button once: the warning light indicating the system has been disabled will appear on the dashboard. From that moment, the engine will not turn off automatically during stops.

The deactivation remains valid until the vehicle is turned off; upon the next start, the system will reactivate automatically and must be disabled again using the same button if necessary.

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.
