Cleaning the Floor Mats

Rubber floor mats should be cleaned with
mild soap and water only.

WARNING

Do not use rubber cleaners, such as tire
cleaner or tire shine, when cleaning rubber
floor mats:

Cleaning the rubber floor mats with rubber
cleaning products makes the floor mats
slippery.
This may cause an accident when
depressing the accelerator, brake, or clutch
(Manual transmission) pedal or when
getting in or out of the vehicle.

After removing the floor mats for
cleaning, always reinstall them securely
(page 3-52).
