The pollen filter purifies the air in the cabin and is located under the passenger side glove compartment. To access it, remove the panel secured with plastic clips on the sides by simply pulling it outward.

Unscrew the screws of the drawer cover to access the filter. Unclip the cover springs and remove the filter by gently pulling it down to avoid dust dispersal.

To collect any dirt, place a cloth on the floor. Insert the new filter into its housing and close the cover with the screws.

Reposition the cover.

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.
