Pedal area

Pedals
Ensure that you can always press the accel-
–
erator, brake and clutch pedals unimpaired
to the floor.
Ensure that the pedals can return unim-
–
paired to their initial positions.
Ensure that the floor mats are securely fas-
–
tened during the trip and do not obstruct
›››
the pedals .
Seat belts
Only use floor mats which leave the pedals
clear and which are secured to prevent them
from slipping. You can obtain suitable floor
mats from a specialised dealership. Fasten-
ers* for floor mats are fitted in the footwells.
If a brake circuit fails, the brake pedal must
be pressed down thoroughly in order to stop
the vehicle.
Wear suitable footwear
Always wear shoes which support your feet
properly and give you a good feeling for the
pedals.
WARNING
● If the pedals are obstructed, an accident
may occur. Risk of serious injuries.
Never lay or fit floor mats or other floor cov-
●
erings over the original floor mats. This
would reduce the pedal area and could ob-
struct the pedals. Risk of accident.
● Never place objects in the driver footwell.
An object could move into the pedal area and
impair pedal operation. In the event of a sud-
den driving or braking manoeuvre, you will
not be able to operate the brake, clutch or ac-
celerator pedal. Risk of accident!
