Fig. 128 Pedals in vehicles with a dual clutch gearbox:
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings
The operation and freedom of movement of all pedals must never be impaired by objects or floor mats.
Use only floor mats that leave the pedal area free and can be securely fastened in the footwell.
If a brake circuit fails, you will have to depress the brake pedal further than normal in order to bring the vehicle to a stop.
WARNING
Objects in the driver footwell can hinder pedal operation. This can lead to loss of control of the vehicle and increase the risk of serious injury.
Please ensure that all pedals can always be operated without any hindrance.
The floor mats must always be properly secured in the footwell.
No additional floor mats or other floor coverings should be placed over the fitted floor mat.
Ensure that no objects can enter the driver footwell while the vehicle is in motion.
If there are any objects in the footwell, remove them when the vehicle is parked.
NOTICE
The pedals must be freely operable at all times. For example, a larger brake pedal travel will be necessary in order to stop the vehicle if a brake
circuit fails. The brake pedal will have to be depressed further and harder than normal.
