Before driving through standing water, check the depth. Never drive

through water that is higher than the bottom
of the wheel hubs.

When driving through standing water, drive
very slowly and do not stop your vehicle. Your
brake performance and traction may be
limited. After driving through water and as
soon as it is safe to do so:
• Lightly press the brake pedal to dry the

brakes and to check that they work.

• Check that the horn works.
• Check that the exterior lights work.
• Turn the steering wheel to check that the steering power assist works.

FLOOR MATS

WARNING: Always use floor mats that are designed to fit the
foot well of your vehicle. Only use floor mats that leave the pedal

area unobstructed. Only use floor mats that are firmly secured to
retention posts so that they cannot slip out of position and interfere
with the pedals or impair safe operation of your vehicle in other ways.

WARNING: Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of
vehicle control and increase the risk of serious personal injury.

WARNING: Always make sure that the floor mats are properly
attached to the retention posts in the carpet that are supplied

with your vehicle. Floor mats must be properly secured to both
retention posts to make sure mats do not shift out of position.

WARNING: Never place floor mats or any other covering in the
vehicle foot well that cannot be properly secured to prevent them

from moving and interfering with the pedals or the ability to control the
vehicle.
