Mazda CX-3, Owner'S Manual

Page: 172 / 785

Do not install two fl oor mats, one on top of
the other, on the driver's side:
Installing two fl oor mats, one on top of the
other, on the driver's side is dangerous as
the retention pins can only keep one fl oor
mat from sliding forward.
Loose fl oor mat(s) will interfere with the
foot pedals and could result in an accident.
If using an all-weather mat for winter use
always remove the original fl oor mat.
When setting a floor mat, position the
floor mat so that its grommets or retainers
are inserted over the pointed end of the
retention posts.
Rocking the Vehicle
WARNING
Do not spin the wheels at high speed, and
do not allow anyone to stand behind a
wheel when pushing the vehicle:
When the vehicle is stuck, spinning the
wheels at high speed is dangerous. The
spinning tyre could overheat and explode.
This could cause serious injuries.
CAUTION
Too much rocking may cause engine
overheating, transaxle failure, and tyre
damage.
If you must rock the vehicle to free it from
snow, sand or mud, depress the accelerator
slightly and slowly move the shift lever/
selector lever from 1 (D) to R position.
