FLOOR MAT INFORMATION

Following these guidelines will help ensure your safety by preventing the floor matsfrom interfering with accelerator, brake, or clutch (if applicable) pedal operation. Yourvehicle’s original driver’s floor mat is anchored to the floor to ensure it does notmove and cause interference with pedal operation. When you remove your mats toclean them ensure the driver’s floor mat is installed and properly secured to thevehicle with the floor anchors before driving.If you decide to install different floor mats, such as all-weather floor mats, ensure thedriver’s floor mat is made to fit your vehicle specifically. The driver’s floor mat must beanchored to the floor in the same manner as your original mats. Furthermore, do notplace newspapers or other absorbent materials on the floor area as this can lift themat or freeze overnight and interfere with pedal operation. Finally, ensure that there isonly one driver’s floor mat installed as original anchors are designed to secure onlyone mat. An unsecured floor mat may interfere with pedal operation, increasing therisk of a collision.
