Video tutorial

In this video we see how the armrest works on the Skoda Octavia MK2. It lifts and lowers with a simple movement and has 4 preset positions, which are reached by lifting and lowering it until you hear a click in the desired position: it is ideal for drivers of different heights or to find comfort while driving.

Under the top cover there is a second cover: opening it, the air conditioning enters the armrest compartment.

It is used to keep drinks cool, store snacks or chocolate without melting, or keep a sandwich cool to eat later. It is not a refrigerator; it only uses the cold air from the air conditioning system.

Inside the compartment we find an AUX socket to listen to music through the audio system.

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.
