The cabin air filter is located just below the windscreen, outside the cabin: open the front bonnet, pull off the seal along the rear edge, and unclip the plastic cover just below the windscreen (it is simply clipped in); once removed, extract the old filter, remove any debris present, and fit the new one, ensuring the airflow direction is correct.

Then, reposition the plastic cover and the seal that were previously removed.

After replacing the filter, it is advisable to also sanitise the cabin with a suitable spray.

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.
