Jeep Wrangler: INTERIORS / Carpet Safety Information
Always use carpet designed to fit your vehicle.
Only use carpet that does not interfere with the
operation of the pedal assemblies. Only operate
the vehicle when the carpet is securely
attached by the grommets so it cannot slip out
of position and interfere with the pedal
assemblies or impair safe operation of your
vehicle in other ways.
WARNING!
- If operating the vehicle without carpet in
place the floor may become hot, and there
is a risk of burns.
- An improperly attached, damaged, folded,
or damaged grommets may cause your
carpet to interfere with the accelerator,
brake, or clutch pedals and cause a loss of
vehicle control. To prevent SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH: ALWAYS securely attach your
carpet using the grommets.
- ALWAYS make sure objects cannot fall or
slide into the driver’s side floor area when
the vehicle is moving. Objects can become
trapped under accelerator, brake, or clutch
pedals and could cause a loss of vehicle
control.
- NEVER place any objects under the carpet
(e.g., towels, keys, etc.). These objects
could change the position of the carpet and
may cause interference with the accelerator,
brake, or clutch pedals.
- ONLY install carpet designed to fit your
vehicle. NEVER install carpet that cannot
be properly attached and secured to your
vehicle. If the carpet needs to be replaced,
only use a FCA approved carpet for the
specific make, model, and year of your
vehicle.
- If the vehicle carpet has been removed and
re-installed, always properly attach carpet
to the floor and check that the floor mat
fasteners are secure to the vehicle carpet.
Fully depress each pedal to check for interference
with the accelerator, brake, or
clutch pedals then re-install the floor mats.

WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain
carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Breathing it can make you
unconscious and can eventually poison you.
To avoid breathing (CO), follow these safety
tips:
Do not run the engine in a closed garage or
in confined areas any longer than needed
to move your vehicle in or out of the area...
WARNING!
Do not open hot engine cooling system.
Never add engine coolant (antifreeze) when
the engine is overheated. Do not loosen or
remove the cap to cool an overheated
engine. Heat causes pressure to build up in
the cooling system. To prevent scalding or
injury, do not remove the pressure cap
while the system is hot or under pressure...
