WARNING

(Continued)

• Never place floor mats or any other covering on top of already

installed floor mats. Floor mats should always rest on top of the
vehicle carpeting surface and not another floor mat or other
covering. Additional floor mats or any other covering will reduce the
pedal clearance and potentially interfere with pedal operation.

• Check attachment of floor mats on a regular basis. Always properly

reinstall and secure floor mats that have been removed for cleaning
or replacement.

• Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver footwell

while the vehicle is moving. Objects that are loose can become
trapped under the pedals causing a loss of vehicle control.

• Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or attachment

instructions can potentially cause interference with pedal operation
causing loss of control of vehicle.

• To install floor mats, position the floor mat so that the eyelet is over

the retention post and press down to lock in.

• To remove the floor mat, reverse the installation procedure.
