If the vehicle's battery is disconnected for an extended period or the car radio is disconnected from the power supply for maintenance, the display will show CODE upon the first ignition, and the radio will not function. You must correctly enter the activation code using the preset station buttons (if you enter the code incorrectly, simply switch off and on again to repeat the process; if you repeatedly enter it incorrectly, the radio may lock, and you will need to wait before you can attempt to enter the code again).

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.
