This guide shows how to access the battery location of the Opel Movano. The battery is accessed from the driver's door compartment; in fact, the battery is located under the driver's seat, protected by the wall of the access step.

To open the compartment, you need to unscrew the six retaining screws of the plastic panel. Once the panel is removed, you will have access to the battery position.

Replacing the battery is straightforward as you only need to disconnect the electrical connections and the mounting bracket and extract it. Reassembly is the same as disassembly but in reverse.

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.
