Video tutorial

The cabin air filter is located in the engine bay, just below the windscreen on the passenger side. Open the front bonnet, remove the seal along the rear edge, and detach the plastic cover under the windscreen by unscrewing the three securing screws.

Extract the old filter, remove any dirt residues from inside the housing, and insert the new filter (it is recommended to choose one with activated carbon), ensuring it is oriented according to the airflow direction indicated by arrows on the filter.

Finally, reattach the cover and the seal.

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.
