FORD 2014 Taurus v.2 - Manual (Page 256)

FLOOR MATS
WARNING: Always use floor mats that are designed to fit the
foot well of your vehicle, leaving the pedal area unobstructed,
and which can be firmly secured to retention posts so that they cannot
slip out of position and interfere with the pedals or impair safe
operation of your vehicle in other ways.
• Incorrectly fitted floor mats can cause the accelerator pedal to
become stuck in the open position. This can cause loss of vehicle
control.
• Always correctly install the floor mats to the retention posts so that
they cannot slip out of position or obstruct pedal operation.
• Do not place unsecured floor mats or any other covering in the foot
well.
• Do not place additional floor mats or any other covering on top of
the original floor mats. This will reduce the pedal clearance and
interfere with the pedal operation.
• Do not allow objects to fall or become trapped under the pedals of
your vehicle. This can cause loss of vehicle control.
• Carry out regular inspections to make sure the floor mats are secure.
To install the floor mats, position the floor mat eyelet over the retention
post and press down to lock in position.
Remove in reverse order.
