The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side beneath the glove compartment: remove the soundproofing cover by unscrewing the plastic fastening screws, unclip the cover of the cabin filter box by sliding it out like a drawer, and extract the old filter; remove any dirt residue and insert the new filter, ensuring the correct airflow direction, then reapply the cover and the soundproofing.

When replacing the cabin air filter, it is also recommended to sanitise the cabin with an appropriate germicidal spray.

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.

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.
