they do not get into the driver's footwell.
Always fit the floormats securely and as pre-
scribed in order to ensure that there is always sufficient room for the pedals. Do not use
loose floormats and do not place several floor-mats on top of one another. X
Slide the seat backwards.

X Press safety catch knobs :onto retain-
ers ;.
X To remove: pull the floormat away from
retainers ;.
