WARNING!(Continued)
• Never put floor mats or other floor cover-
ings on top of already installed floor mats.
Additional floor mats and other coverings
will reduce the size of the pedal area and
interfere with the pedals.
• Check mounting of mats on a regular basis.
Always properly reinstall and secure floor
mats that have been removed for cleaning.
• Always make sure that objects cannot fall
into the driver foot well while the vehicle is
moving. Objects can become trapped un-
der the brake pedal and accelerator pedal
causing a loss of vehicle control.
(Continued)WARNING!(Continued)
• If required, mounting posts must be prop-
erly installed, if not equipped from the fac-
tory.
Failure to properly follow floor mat installation
or mounting can cause interference with the
brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation
causing loss of control of the vehicle.
Periodic Safety Checks You Should
Make Outside the Vehicle

uneven wear patterns. Check for stones, nails,
glass, or other objects lodged in the tread.
Inspect the tread and sidewall for cuts and
cracks. Check the wheel nuts for tightness.
Check the tires (including spare) for proper
pressure. Lights
Have someone observe the operation of exte-
rior lights while you work the controls. Check
turn signal and high beam indicator lights on
the instrument panel.
Door Latches
Check for positive closing, latching, and lock-
ing.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under vehicle after overnight park-
ing for fuel, engine coolant, oil, or other fluid
leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or if
fuel, power steering fluid, or brake fluid leaks
are suspected, the cause should be located
and corrected immediately.
