Where is the cigarette lighter fuse in the Elantra?

The cigarette lighter fuse in the Elantra is located under the cover panel on the lower left side of the driver's seat. The steps to use the cigarette lighter are: 1. Turn on the car power and insert the cigarette lighter into the power socket; 2. Insert the cigarette lighter into the car power socket and press down to lock it. The Elantra is a compact 4-door 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4610mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1450mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 95.6 kW and a maximum torque of 211 Nm. The drivetrain is front-engine, front-wheel drive, with a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension.
When I drove a Hyundai Elantra before, I encountered a problem with the cigarette lighter not working. Finding the fuse is actually quite simple. It's hidden in the fuse box under the steering wheel, near the driver's left foot. You need to open that small plastic cover, and there's a label inside indicating the position of each fuse. The one for the cigarette lighter is usually labeled "cigarette lighter" or something similar. The specific number may vary depending on the year, but for my older model, it was around Fuse 30. Remember not to pull out fuses randomly—it's best to turn off the power first and check. If it's blown, just buy a replacement—usually around 10 amps. Regular car cleaning can prevent short circuits, like dust clogging the socket. I replaced it myself, and it worked fine, saving me a trip to the repair shop.
