Audi A6 Typ 4G: Pedal area
Pedals
The pedals must always be free to move and must never be interfered with by a floor mat or any other object.
Make sure that all pedals move freely without interference and that nothing prevents them from returning to their original positions.
Only use floor mats that leave the pedal area free and can be secured with floor mat fasteners.
If a brake circuit fails, increased brake pedal travel is required to bring the vehicle to a full stop.
WARNING
Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of serious injury.
- Never place any objects in the driver's footwell.
An object could get into the pedal area and interfere with pedal function. In case of sudden braking or an accident, you would not be able to brake or accelerate!
- Always make sure that nothing can fall or move into the driver's footwell.
Floor mats on the driver side
Always use floor mats that con be securely attached to the floor mat fasteners and do not interfere with the free movement of the pedals.
- Make sure that the floor mats are properly secured
and cannot move and interfere with the
pedals
.
Use only floor mats that leave the pedal area unobstructed and that are firmly secured so that they cannot slip out of position. You can obtain suitable floor mats from your authorized Audi Dealer.
Floor mat fasteners are installed in your Audi.
Floor mats used in your vehicle must be attached to these fasteners. Properly securing the floor mats will prevent them from sliding into positions that could interfere with the pedals or impair safe operation of your vehicle in other ways.
WARNING
Pedals that cannot move freely can result in a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of serious personal injury.
- Always make sure that floor mats are properly secured.
- Never place or install floor mats or other floor coverings in the vehicle that cannot be properly secured in place to prevent them from slipping and interfering with the pedals or the ability to control the vehicle.
- Never place or install floor mats or other floor coverings on top of already installed floor mats. Additional floor mats and other coverings will reduce the size of the pedal area and interfere with the pedals.
- Always properly reinstall and secure floor mats that have been taken out for cleaning.
- Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver footwell while the vehicle is moving. Objects can become trapped under the brake pedal and accelerator pedal causing a loss of vehicle control.
