Subaru Forester: Interior equipment / Floor mat

CAUTION
- If the floor mat slips forward and
interferes with the movement of the
pedals during driving, it could cause
an accident. Observe the following
precautions to prevent the floor mat
from slipping forward.
- Be sure to use a genuine
SUBARU floor mat or an equivalent
designed with grommets in
the correct locations.
- Make sure that the driver’s floor
mat is placed in its proper location
and is correctly secured on
its retaining pins.
- Do not use more than one floor
mat.

Retaining pins are located on the driver’s
side floor.
The floor mat should be properly secured
using the built-in grommets, by placing the
grommets over the pins and pushing them
downward.
