How do I install Smartliner floor and cargo liners?

Installing Smartliner floor and cargo liners is a straightforward process, but preparing the liners properly and performing a final safety check are critical steps. Here is the recommended step-by-step installation process:

1. Prepare the Liners
Because the liners are packed for shipping, they may have curled edges when you unpack them. To help them reclaim their shape, lay them out flat in the warm sun for 30 to 60 minutes, or leave them in a warm room overnight if it is not sunny. The liners will naturally regain their proper shape within 48 hours.

• Do not use a heat gun to reshape them.
• Do not fold or bend the liners once they have reformed, as this can cause permanent creases.

2. Prepare Your Vehicle
Turn off your vehicle before beginning the installation. Remove all old floor mats from the vehicle. Clean the floors to ensure they are free of any dirt or debris. Confirm that the liners you purchased are compatible with your specific make and model.

3. Align and Secure
Place the liners into the vehicle, ensuring they are properly aligned to cover the entire floor area. To prevent the liners from shifting while you are driving, make sure they are locked into the vehicle's factory retention posts or secured using any provided clips or fasteners.

4. Test the Pedals (Crucial Safety Step)
Once the front row liner is installed, you must move each pedal through its full range of motion to ensure the liner does not interfere with the gas, brake, or clutch pedals.
