Kia Soul: Interior features / Floor mat anchor(s)

When using a floor mat on the front floor carpet, make sure it attaches to the floor mat anchor(s) in your vehicle. This keeps the floor mat from sliding forward.

When installing floor mat

1. Align fixing structure (hook) of floor carpet and hook ring of floor mat.

2. Insert the floor mat hook ring to the hook of floor carpet.

3. When inserting, first, push under part of the hook ring of floor mat matching with the hook of floor carpet, and push upper part of hook ring, so that hook ring can be properly inserted.

When uninstalling floor mat

WARNING

The following must be observed when installing ANY floor mat to the vehicle.

• Ensure that the floor mats are securely attached to the vehicle's floor mat anchor(s) before driving the vehicle.
• Do not use ANY floor mat that cannot be firmly attached to the vehicle's floor mat anchors.
• Do not stack floor mats on top of one another (e.g. all-weather rubber mat on top of a carpeted floor mat). Only a single floor mat should be installed in each position.
• When uninstalling floor mat, be sure to uninstall it with designated direction described with arrow at the previous picture. If different direction of force is applied to the hook, the hook can be broken.

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 your vehicle be installed.
