Do not use ANY floor mat that can- not be firmly attached to the vehi-
cle's floor mat anchors.

IMPORTANT - Your vehicle was
manufactured with driver's side floor
mat anchors that are designed to
securely hold the floor mat in place.
To avoid any interference with pedal
operation, Kia recommends that only
the Kia floor mat designed for use in
