FORD 2014 Fusion v.3 - Manual (Page 217)

E142667
When driving through water, traction or
brake capability may be limited. Also,
water may enter your engine’s air intake
and severely damage your engine or your
vehicle may stall.
Once through the water, always dry the
brakes by moving your vehicle slowly while
applying light pressure on the brake pedal.
Wet brakes do not stop the vehicle as
quickly as dry brakes.
FLOOR MATS
E142666
WARNINGS
Always use floor mats that are
designed to fit the foot well of your
vehicle, leaving the pedal area
unobstructed, and which can be 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.
Incorrectly fitted floor mats can
cause the accelerator pedal to
become stuck in the open position.
This can cause loss of vehicle control.
Always correctly install the floor
mats to the retention posts so that
they cannot slip out of position or
obstruct pedal operation.
Do not place unsecured floor mats
or any other covering in the foot well.
Do not place additional floor mats
or any other covering on top of the
original floor mats. This will reduce
the pedal clearance and interfere with the
pedal operation.
Do not allow objects to fall or
become trapped under the pedals of
your vehicle. This can cause loss of
vehicle control.
Carry out regular inspections to make
sure the floor mats are secure.
To install the floor mats, position the floor
mat eyelet over the retention post and
press down to lock in position.
Remove in reverse order.
