Mazda 3 Owners Manual: Floor Mat
| WARNING
Make sure the fl oor mats are hooked on
the retention pins to prevent them from
bunching up under the foot pedals:
Using a fl oor mat that is not secured is
dangerous as it will interfere with the
accelerator and brake pedal operation,
which could result in an accident.
Do not install two fl oor mats, one on top of the other, on the driver's side: Installing two fl oor mats, one on top of the other, on the driver's side is dangerous as the retention pins can only keep one fl oor mat from sliding forward. If using a heavy duty fl oor mat for winter use always remove the original fl oor mat. Loose fl oor mat(s) will interfere with the foot pedal and could result in an accident. |
When setting a floor mat, position the floor mat so that its grommets are inserted over the pointed end of the retention posts.
